Our good friend, Tommy, once told my husband that even if I wasn't making tons of money at my shop, people sure like visiting!
ladies always want tips and pointers from 'Furniture Diva Diane'True. I never opened a shop for the money. I opened it for a passion of Home and great moments! Diva Day Friday was a hit from Day One! The 'Diva Bar' always seemed the best spot to get all the latest scoop & happenings around town. (Not to mention great cocktails). Lots of laughter, for sure...a place where the chicas hang out, let their hair down just a bit, and sing all the lyrics to La Belle, Marvin Gaye, & Chaka Khan...
My undying gratitude goes out to all of the fabuluous jewelry artists I've met through the shop...
all of the priceless friendships that I have made...
to the chicas that have been with me since the very beginning...
and all the chicas that remained to the end...
for all of the prop-styling over the past few years being quite the ordeal...
and for those many, many long nights of flipping the entire shop, (moving all of the furniture& goods around), until 11pm - or well past midnight... when I dragged my exhausted butt through our door at home, Tim would massage my calves and give me an 'atta girl'... = )
but I always LoVeD the end result...
for me, my shop was always my sanctuary, a resting spot, my fantasy, my passion...
and I loved sharing it with other lovely chicas...
and so many lovely chicas shared my same passion and 'got me'...they really understood!
view out my front door @ home...
So, for now, I bid you Bon Voyage as I close my shop doors. My husband is expanding on his career which will require me to be home with our moppets.
He has been my #1 TRUE FAN & supporter. I will now become his...
This isn't the end however...but rather, a new beginning for us.
A new chapter in the life of monica's... now, with a capital 'M'.
~Monica's Nest~
Stay tuned...
It's sure to be a fun voyage!
