Family | Work In Progress

Today has been good. Being a Saturday, and being creative just lift my spirits up.

This is because, there are more stuff that need more room to be displayed.

The thing that ignites my creative thinking cap is the challenge to display as many items as possible, but in a tasteful manner and most importantly not cluttered.

Must stay away from just for the sake of displaying. It has to be presentable, inviting to the Customers and hopefully draw enough interest to come into the shop and... yes, buy it!

So, after Wify left for the shop, I put on my thinking cap and started to let my creative juices flow.

It flowed wonderfully that I just could not stop. I almost forgot to "feed my son and myself too."

After a few hours, I finally got the idea working to the last dimension and layout per the existing store.

Calculated the display "scaffolding" and furniture that I need to put together and the cost it entails, all I need now is to discuss with Wify for her inputs and agreement before I purchase them.

I went to the display racks and shelves shop in Serangoon Road this afternoon after my son's friend came to play Xbox with him and kept him company while I was gone.

Bought some of detachable display racks and will buy the balance at IKEA for the extend-able floor-to-ceiling poles, to complete the structure I designed.

That is of course after I surveyed the shop for one last time to be sure that I do not overlook on anything that may hinder the set-up.

We have to close the shop for at least one day for the "make-over," to transform it and bring it up to a new level of "shopping experince" for our Customers... never hurt to dream.

Anyway, the planning is always great, the execution is another matter all together.

I am hoping and praying for business to continuously grow.
