I'm so happy for you and hubby. It's a lot of work but having him beside you is awesome. It just tickles me to see sweet couples work together. I'm happy for you.

I think making a wooden surround for the stove to make it look more like a cabinet/shelf would be cool. Or just put one of those wooden things people make for their stoves. Plus you could make a video of you making it and possibly even sell some in your shop! You're handing with wooden items! You could stencil or use vinyl on them. The sinks are def useful for cleaning up after painting stuff and candles, but maybe put a wooden board over that area too? I def think there are ways to "hide" the area while keeping it useful to you. I love the rusty tin on the walls, it's so cool looking. I'm so excited for your shop! You are living my dream! It's hard work, but I think it'll def work out well for ya!

The large machine type thing near the kitchen area looks like an industrial size ice maker.

Hi Sandy, I think you and lorean are making great progress. I hope you don't mind me sharing some decorating ideas. You had asked about a color for the front of counter. I like the corrugated tin in the store, so I think a rusty red color would be nice. I think the sinks will come in handy with your paints and bushes, so I think you will be happy with keeping those. Do you need the stove? Maybe that could come out? A thought about a covering to block the kitchen, maybe you could put up another fence on that side parallel with the other. It is really exciting to see a new business start from the ground up. Thank you for sharing your story.

I think i would put a skirt around the sinks, and put a board on top of the stove to help decorate. since your décor rustic I would paint the cabinets and cash register a apothecary green and your shingle covers a bright white and something really big on your fence

Happy Sunday morning to you Sandy. Your store is coming along nicely. Loving how you used the rusty crusty galvanized tin. I have to agree with one of the comments about color. In the one area in front of the kitchen a reddish/orange (color of rust) would look good on the front of that blue counter. It would blend really good. Like how you used a section of a fence to close that one area. I have lots of faith in you in getting this decorated just the way you want it. You’re a very creative gal. Oh, I just thought of one area in the kitchen on the back wall where stove is it looks kinda bare. If you could find something big enough to help fill that wall I think it would help. Wishing only the best for you. God bless. ♥️♥️😊👍👍👍🌟

It is a toss up between green or rusty red for the counter. I will make sure to include the address when I am finished.

You could put old doors on rollers to hide the kitchen. I have also seen them hung from the ceiling. I think rollers would work great for you .
