Treat – the end (for now…)

Well, they do say that all good things come to an end, and sadly Treat, our first pop-up shop in J&G Innes, has run its 2 week course.  We had a lot of packing up to do on Monday and Tuesday, despite selling a lot, but I think the worst part was carting everything down the stairs, across the road and into the office in the Town Hall.  Great thanks to Marion and Anton for helping!

Treat – only one more day

Hard to believe there is only one more day left of FCA&C’s first pop-up shop.

We're open!

Yes, the doors opened this morning on FCA&C’s first pop-up shop and it was lovely to see so many interested visitors (and customers!) on our first day.  Lots of oohs and aahs too!

Treat – ready to go!

As the clock struck 5pm we realised we were ready!  There was nothing left lying on the floor in boxes, no extraneous packaging to be seen anywhere in fact.  Even the clutter round the desk was de-cluttered!  Amazing – FCA&C’s first pop-up shop ready to do business.

Treat countdown upon us!

With the second last set-up day over, I can honestly say I’ve spent many, many pounds (in my head at the moment) as I unpack and place our wonderful items.  There’s something to suit most tastes here – men, women, boys, girls, young, old – whatever!  And such a variety!  OK, I’m certainly biased – but it’s lovely stuff folks!

Treat set up – day 2

Another hot and busy day on the first floor of J & G Innes.  I think all the visitors we’ve had today have commented on what a lovely space it is – and indeed it is!  Unpacking has been going apace, in tandem with pricing – this is really the exciting time, seeing everything coming out of its packaging and trying to put it all somewhere that shows it off to its best advantage.  I think there will be more of the same tomorrow…

Treat prep is underway

Hurray!  We moved into J&G Innes’ wonderfully atmospheric first floor this morning and set to…bit of polishing, bit of carpet tile laying, bit of display case building (Ikea, we don’t love you – your screws don’t!).

Treat…in store (there certainly is!)

We’re well on with our unpacking now and I think we could all spend an absolute fortune over the first fortnight in July!

Lovely Pigeon flies by to drop off some work

We’ve had a visit from Lovely Pigeon’s Kirsty Thomas with a box of goodies!  The latest in an interesting selection of boxes, all aimed at filling our pop-up shop shelves (literally).

Treat…coming very soon to St Andrews!

FCA&C’s first venture into the world of the fabulous pop-up shop is nearly upon us!  Eek!  The boxes and packages are piling up round our ears (carefully stacked of course) and the excitement is mounting (or is that panic?).
