Painting a Concrete Floor

Floor
As i have mentioned before,Decorating with Color I love to decorate with color! We are in development for our new retail accessories store The Bling Thing,and are in the process of setting up.

 The first thing we decided is that we didn’t want to go with boring carpet.The floor was just concrete, and we had to decide between carpet, tile, linoleum, or paint.We decided to  paint the floor! Why not? If it doesn’t work out, we can always carpet, or do one of the othe applications. Paint is inexpensive, yet it adds something unique,and fun to the space!

Mr. Brooke Boutique designed this 4 color design, and painted it in stages. He sealed the whole thing with a lacquer. We think it came out spectacularly! What do you think? If it doesn’t end up holding up nicely, there is always builder beige carpet!

Our new website and retail boutique TheBlingThing.com

I am so excited to announce that a dream of mine since i was a teenager is about to come true! No, i am not going to kiss Shaun Cassidy! We are in development for a new retail accessories store, The Bling Thing. We will be located in Saline, Michigan right downtown.

We plan to pull most of the gift items, off of our brookeboutique.com website and turn it into strictly resort and swimwear.The gift items, jewelry,and bling apparel will go onto TheBlingThing.com which is currently in development.

When i was a young woman, there was this woman who owned an accessory store downtown Ann Arbor. She had so much talent, everytime i went into her place, i would fall in love all over again. She died many years ago of HIV,and i hope in some small way that this site is memorable and would be a good tribute to her.

We should be open for biz soon, will keep the blog updated!
