CUSTOMER FEATURE
5,000-square-foot facility to store con-
struction and metal materials.
“It’s been a process,” says Sharon. “I
think we’re about finished, though—we
only have one more building to work on.”
That building is the old store location,
where the couple does a lot of miscel-
laneous work, such as custom glass cut-
ting and screen repairs. They want to
upgrade that building and turn it into a
separate area where they can sell house-
wares and gifts.
All the buildings are located together
on the property in the small town of
Palmer, and it’s easy to tell they go
together, as they all have matching blue
and gray siding. The colors carry to the
inside of the new store, which has light
blue walls and blue pegboard for all of
the displays.
“We saw that pegboard at the one of
the Blish-Mize buying markets, and it
really caught our eye,” says Bill.
The new building, which opened last May, boasts a 2,200-square-foot showroom.
