The Making of a Toy Store(front) - Week 3
By Miebeth Bustillo-Booth, ChildTrek Founder
This Week’s Progress
Watching your dream come alive is a bit surreal. First it’s in your head. Then it’s on paper. Then it starts to take shape right before your eyes. If it were not for all the logistics that keep me firmly on the ground, I would be on cloud nine. Let there be no mistake about it: Opening a toy store is a lot of work. But seeing the pieces come together is really its own energy.
Below are pictures from earlier this week. Much has already happened since. The walls are no longer blue (at least most of them, and not this blue). As soon as more pictures are available, I’ll post them here.
More about this process will be in How ChildTrek Was Born: The 3rd Trimester - the last installation of the series (read 1st Trimester, 2nd Trimester). I promise, it’s coming.

Looks great! I’m are very excited about your wonderful toy store that is opening in the Freighthouse Square. We live in Renton but sometimes come to the Freighthouse on the weekends. I’ll be sure and come buy.
