Lynda Wilson (Owner), August, 2020: "The Mural on the side of our building
was created about 5 years ago and was done by Mandy van Leeuwen. We wanted to
capture a bit of simple straight-forward values with our solid wood chairs as being one of
the easiest things to quickly identify the type of store we are, but also give the store and
the Mural some personality and to give the sense to people that the store was owned and
operated by local people just like them and were approachable."
"The two cats that are on the Mural were ours and were adopted by me in 2000. They
were very close to us; and Alex, the tiny Black and White Manx, was often in
the store wandering around greeting customers and seeking affection! We called her our
"Silent Salesman" as she would sit on chairs or tables while customers were looking at
them. Sam, the orange and white tabby, preferred to work in the background.
We unfortunately lost both cats when they passed about a year and a half apart and are
now in stage of arranging for Harley (our newest feline family member) to be written into
the Mural."
