Pardon Our Dust



Before the wall came down

Gotta have a great hat, roofers at work
Some of you may have noticed the hubbub and construction around the Garden Shed. Ocean Heir is thrilled to be taking over part of the old Deer Run space.  And despite a little noise and a little chaos we have been, and will be open throughout the remodeling process.  (Fans of Deer Run, have no fear, Leslie has taken her gifts and her talent and joined Left Field Gallery in SLO).





converts to a bed, if required
We plan  to expand our selection of cards and books, install a lounge area (you can think of it as the Husband Comfort Station), and just generally give us all a little more elbow room. We think you are going to love it, we're not done yet and we already do! 


These guys did a great job on the new floor!
First, there was the construction shoring up and weather-proofing the space. That went on for several weeks, and parts of  were pretty ugly, dirty and noisy (thanks to the Garden Shed for the property improvements and our neighbors for their patience).  Walls went up, walls came down, concrete was poured (several times), new roof, and, in true Garden Shed tradition, we have a beautiful new mosaic floor transition between the old and new spaces.   




Cully:  Handyman, Magician, Fashion Consultant
Then, our good friend and unparalleled handyman extraordinaire, Cully, handled all the Ocean Heir improvements as deftly as a magician.  He's framed walls, run electrical, installed windows, hung doors, and built new fixtures, everything that needed doing he did.  If that wasn't enough he's been a design consultant, lighting technician, Heiress tamer (sometimes we get a little nervous), and fixed our computer. He knows the difference between a boat neck and a scoop, and he's kept us ahead of schedule.  Cully, if we haven't said it yet, THANK YOU!


The Heiresses have been cleaning, merchandising, and re-fluffing all corners of the store, and of course, the Heiress-in-Chief is personally overseeing every detail.  There are just a few more construction details to button up, but we are very, very close, and should be completely done before the end of April.   Things may have moved around a bit, but it is all still here and an Heiress is always available to help find your favorites.  So come on by and be among the first to check out the new and improved Ocean Heir!
