If you happened to read my recent post Flower power then you'll be aware I'm all set to become a florist! Well there's been a slight change of plan, after realising how much work and knowledge of the subject floristry entails we have now decided it might be best to open the shop my husband is leasing as wait for it.......A fancy dress shop!
I know, couldn't be further away from a shop full of flowers but it's a lot less pressure and depending on how well the shop does we can look into the florist idea at a later date once we are all set up. The shop has a massive upstairs which would be ideal for us to move the fancy dress to and we can use the downstairs as a home ware/florists.
So has anybody any ideas on names for the shop?? I'm wracking my brains for something not too tacky and original, let me know if you come up with anything!
How cool! Would love to do that! I shall come back to you about names!
ReplyDeleteCool idea, and a more 'joint venture'
ReplyDelete'Come as you are'
Then there were three - ohh please do i can't think of anything decent!
ReplyDeleteSuprised - "come as you are" ohh now that's clever and very original!
Well that is definitely a change, not sure of a name though, but you could also offer Party Bags etc!! I do have to say it makes me think of Mr Ben, so Mr Ben's Emporium - which kind of covers everything.
ReplyDeleteNow that sounds a much better idea and a lot more fun. Perhaps get a dictionary and start brainstorming, or post the question on twitter. I'm sure you'd get a good response.
ReplyDeleteMad House - Love the party bag idea but i'm not sure who "Mr Ben" is, sorry if i sound dumb can you enlighten me?
ReplyDeleteRosie - Glad you think so, that's a genius idea i'm onto it!
Good luck with the new venture! I'm not very good with the name thing, but if I do think of anything I'll let you know.
ReplyDeleteOur wonderful party hire shop also does helium balloons - always VERY busy! And make up/face paints with lessons!!!! Really good fun.
ReplyDeleteAs for names: Masquerade?
I like Mr Benn (more info here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr_Benn)
ReplyDeleteChanging Faces - or does that sound like plastic surgery
Oh I'm useless, sorry
Laura - I'm sure you'll come up with something :)
ReplyDeleteTattie weasle -Wow yeh that sound slike a good idea with lessons too! Ohh i'll have to pick your brain for all the info :)
BNM - LOL i could offer a free sace lift with every purchase :)
Bold and fancy
ReplyDeletehow about 'changing places' you know because you change yourself when you dress up :) xx
ReplyDeleteThat sounds exciting! Good luck on your new venture. We're at the very early stage of a new venture as well. Not sure if its going to come to anything yet but its an exciting time.
ReplyDeleteHave got an award for you over at mine, just noticed you've had one before so hope you don't mind another one. Don't be offended by the title!
fun!
ReplyDelete"Fancy That?"
Sounds fun. If your name is Nancy, you could open "Fancy Nancy". Otherwise, I like "Fancy That?" as a suggestion. Or how about "Up to the Nines"?
