Pineapple Cove Now Open!

Warning you in advance..this post is going to be a long one. It's been months since I've posted, so lots to share! After months of long nights, tired muscles and filthy clothes, the wait is finally over! We are now open on the rooftop of Kahala Mall, right above Carl's Jr. Here are some before and after photos showing our slow progress. Let me know what you think, Victor picked out the colors and did the layout...I just had to organize and put up the merchandise. I'm so glad the "moving" part is done - it was so exhausting!

This side of the room is located near our 2nd entrance which is right next to The Diamond Specialist. Planning to hold classes, demonstrations, make-n-takes and crops here. In addition, as a service to our customers, you can call in advance to reserve this space if you need to hold assembly parties for your invitations and favors that are purchased from the store. Schedule of classes will be coming soon, let me know if there's any specific technique or class that you'd be interested in learning.



This back side of the room is where the register and check-out will be. I spend most of my time back here ringing up sales and working on samples for the store. Next to the register is the Accucut Grande Mark, which can be used for FREE to cut your invitations and favor boxes after you purchase your cardstock and designer paper.


The other side of the register area is where you'll find most of the merchandise. We have LOTS of different designer paper to choose from...Kaiser Craft, Bo Bunny, Flair Designs, American Crafts, Pebbles Inc., just to name a few. Everything is organized by theme and we have paper and embellishments for all occasions...Military, School, Vacation, Birthday, etc. If there's something you need that we don't have, we might be able to special order for you, just ask!



Below are just some other things we carry....

We also have a clearance area that is 50% off! So stop on by and say Hello! Store hours are Monday to Saturday (10am - 7pm) and Sunday (10am - 5pm). Can't wait to see all of you...oh and don't forget to print the coupon below that's available only on the blog. Simply click on the coupon to be directed to a page that is printer-friendly.

Before & After

PROGRESS UPDATE: Here's a sneek peak at what the inside of the store looked like before we start the demo and construction to transform it into an inviting paper craft store.

The prior owners were Regal Travel - that explains the big map in the middle of the wall. At first, I thought it would be cool to keep the map for our "travel" area - but it takes up way too much space. Okay, now brace yourself for what the space looks like now after we moved some of our "stuff" out of storage...

What a mess!!! And it was such hard work...there's a weight and height limit going up the ramp to the store - so we had to make multiple small runs up and down the ramp with our two small trucks. It was a very looong day....one more weekend like this and I think we'll have all our "stuff" out of storage!

It was all worth it though...it finally feels like "our store" now with all this junk in it.

We've Found Our New Home!


Happy New Year! It's been a long time since there was any news for us to update regarding finding a new spot for the store. There were a few potentials, but nothing panned out. Victor and I didn't think it would take so long...but after some patience, we're happy to announce that we have a new home...

With keys in hand, we'll be opening soon at Kahala Mall. There's plenty of free parking, it will be easy to find, and there's a great family and community atmosphere. We'll be located on the rooftop right by the elevator that goes down to the theaters. We're planning the layout and will soon start construction. It will take us a few months to get ready...so I'll be posting our progress on this blog.

What a great way to start off the new year! Can't wait to see all of you soon.
