Baby steps

Yes, baby steps. That is what it takes.

Inventory in--check (and oh my goodness what amazing stuff!!!)
Previous tenants out--in process--along with that, paint, furniture, set up inventory--tbd (to be done!)
Merchant account--check (what IS that? That's how you take credit cards. They are the middle man that takes the %age that the CC companies take when you swipe their card)
Credit card machine--on its way!
Computer--check! (Needed a desktop so it wont walk out of the store)
Computer program to keep track of inventory--oops, gotta do that
Building and content insurance--check! (Yes, it's required. That covers accidents in store, fire, etc.)
Business checking account--check!
Signs--to do!--you wouldn't think about those but side, front, and 2 street light box signs
Business license, FEIN #, etc (government stuff)--almost done!! Can't get the building inspection done until we can get possession of the building soo that's put off
Paint, hangers, furniture, etc--check!
Phone and internet--check!

Plus a million more little details in between.

All it takes are baby steps, and it will definitely all get done!

New Vendors!

We have new vendors!!
Amazing new things--including mirrors, frames, memo boards, lamps, hair accessories, clothing, purses, baby stuff (including boy things!! Yay! Finally!), blankets, wall decor, bedding, jewelry, and more!!

Keep it coming!! We're still looking for people who want to have a space where they can sell their things! It's going to be awesome! I can tell you that now!!

Looking forward to May 1st opening date!!

Biz card done, doors and curtains bought!

Here's the business card! How do you like it??

So, we still haven't started on store build out yet, the mattress company is still "going out of business". They will be out in April, so we have to have everything ready to throw it in!!

We just picked up a whole truck load of doors that we are going to paint and antique and make beaaautiful to turn into movable walls!! They can also double as product displays! Not a bad idea eh?

We also found the BEST most perfect fabric on earth for cute shabby dressing room curtains!! Need your input: should I do ruffle edges, fringe-y edges, etc?? Anyone have pictures of dressing room loves?

Also, always taking vendors!! If you have, or you know of someone who has, some amazing hand made items, we would LOVE to sell them at our store!! Send em our way!!

Stay tuned for the next steps in boutique creation!

Hello world!

Hello bloggers,

A bit about us:

Here at Blue Hazel Boutique, we find it difficult to shop in the great state of Utah. Either clothing is modestly lame, or fashionable items are, well....not wearable by our standards. So we wanted to bring you a store that fits everyone's needs. Where we can hold fashion for the home and body to a higher standard!

Here at Blue Hazel Boutique, we have a special store set-up:

Half of our store is committed to our own, personal Utah designers, who hand make their beautiful products. Can't find exactly what you've been looking for? Contact one of our vendors for a custom product!

The other half is committed to brand name, Utah wearable, fashionable clothing.

We are constantly on the prowl for both things! If you believe you have a Blue Hazel worthy hand made product, please feel free to email me! And, if you believe you have found the newest and greatest brand, please follow the step previously mentioned {the emailing one}.

On this site, I will be updating constantly, bringing you new arrivals, featuring vendors, bringing you the latest and greatest in fashion, and hopefully, getting advice from you!

We open May 1st on State Street in Lindon, right next to Four Chairs! Come in to look around! You wont be disappointed.

xoxo,
Blue Hazel
