So now that THAT'S done, I feel like we are moving forward! The shop doesn't have great lighting as is. There is a single ceiling fan light. I'm not in love with the ceiling fan but the tiny shop REALLY heats up during the day so for practicality, the ceiling fan stays. As you know, this is our first time opening up an actual store front, so we're getting ideas and figuring stuff out as we go. First on the list... lighting! So naturally, I went on a hunt on Pinterest for some retail lighting ideas.

I love these ideas! I found a few of those cool vintage bulb cages from the 1930s and 1940s on eBay & Goodwill.com a few months ago to put in my house. I LOVE them and they were so much less expensive than the modern-made-to-look-vintage ones from cb2. Just a tip in case you wanted to go that route!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I didn't think to search Ebay, will have to take a look! The ones I've been looking at are about $95 each and I need quite a few, eep!
DeleteI love looking at Light inspiration on Pinterest, I especially like those string of lights in the Cafe.
ReplyDeleteI think the lighting looks wonderful and you got a great deal. My cousin is opening a small boutique and I can't believe all the details involved. Besides inventory, from lighting to carpeting to barcode scanners, there is so much to do before the doors can actually open.
