We did it!!! Gather and Unique Unique Design officially opened this new business Thursday night to a very receptive crowd. It was alot of work and took the hands of many people to get the completed project ready, The place looked wonderful with delicious food being served and oohs and aahs being heard all around. These pictures were taken before all the food was placed and one table wasn’t completely set, but hope you can get an idea of what was there.
Large paper flowers by Theresa made exclusively for Unique Unique.
Olive jars and horn floor lamp before paper comes off windows.
Large shirt counter with awning in the background and antiqued mirror that can be customized for you situation.
Large basket and ironwork.
Metal shelves, large trough, cheese mold pendants, linen covered bench.
Another view of mirrored table and acrylic containers. That’s a canvas and iron voting booth in the background.
White pumpkins, purple velvet pillows and a better view of the voting booth.
This is a really neat industrial cart with linen cushion.
A large piece of original art done by Carol for our store.
Stone fireplace, tall conveyor belts, wicker settee with linen covered down cushion, and homemade marshmallows on the sticks and on the cake plate.
French table with cast iron urn and downspouts.
The table in the background hasn’t been set yet and food is not all out on front table, but the coconut cupcakes are waiting to be eaten!
This is a venue for events such as luncheons, meetings, rehearsal dinners, special occasions and weddings. Really for all manner of things folks want to “Gather” together to do. And it is, also, a fun place to shop during your gathering or walking in off the street. Unique Unique Design is the design end of this with lots of wonderful merchandise you can take home. Most everything in the store is for sale or can be ordered. We’d love for you to come by and visit if you find yourself in McKinney, Texas. Mayron and I plan on having the shop open on Thursday, Friday, and Saturdays from 10:00am to 5:00pm. You will, also, be able to shop by appointment.
I will add more pictures taken on Opening Night soon. Hope you enjoyed the little tour and wish you could grab a marshmallow or cupcake!!!
See you in McKinney!!!
