change is in the air ...

With all the change abound ... I've decided to make some changes with my inventory selections {by decreasing a lot of it}.  The good news is that I'm really focusing on what's made bwp the specialty store it's become known for.

I'm letting go of bigger, widely-known vendors and bringing in smaller, specialty designers.  I'm on an Esty hunt for the best!

In the process of making these changes, I realized I had way too many fixtures.  Too many fixtures = too much inventory.  So I've taken out some fixtures, brought in a couple of browsing tables {thank you IKEA}, and really opened up the floor space.

I love the results ... sort of gives me a sense of calm when I walk into the store.  And who couldn't use a little calmness to start off a new year?

I love the open floor plan! It looks really great. I guess the new year is inspiring more than just a home purge?
