“MANCHESTER, VT”

BY ELLEN ODREN

I visited the stunning Manchester, VT, location and was in awe of this charming, storybook-like town! The boutique is equally adorable! The space is located in a gorgeous building with a very small-town USA feel, which will present numerous opportunities for both traffic and shoppers.

As you enter the boutique, you will note the beautiful fitting rooms as well as the gorgeous wood floors and glam style lighting, which provides the space with plenty of New England charm!

Thank you to Brea and the entire team for including us throughout this journey and for helping make this boutique come to life! This is really a “one-of-a-kind” Blueprint boutique, and it was truly an “all hands on deck” experience!

POTOMAC, MARYLAND’S GRAND OPENING!

“POTOMAC, MARYLAND’S GRAND OPENING”
BY STEPHANIE DOWNES

We had the opportunity to visit the Potomac, MD boutique in November. It is set in a gorgeous area geographically, strategically nestled in the middle of a densely populated and thriving business center. The boutique is beautiful and unique with a noticeably high end, elevated feel to it from the moment you enter the space. Upon entry, there are two built ins that have been completed by Dana’s husband’s team, as well as a stunning geometric print wallpaper behind the spacious, custom built cash wrap. We also loved the accent wallpaper in the back of the boutique that is often used as the backdrop for a social media moment.

Additional fun features of this location include rugs as well as an array of live plants; there is an open ceiling in this location and these accents really give it a warm and cozy vibe, while still maintaining a “boutiquey” feel.

All of these design details truly set the space apart and differentiate it from other locations while also contributing to the high-end design aesthetic and positively affecting the customer experience. What a privilege it is to visit the Potomac, MD boutique!

WELCOME ALB MCLEAN

admin All Blogs, New Boutique Openings

“NOW OPEN: ALB MCLEAN”
BY: ELLEN ODREN

What a pleasure to work with Dana on her 2nd location! This boutique is set in an established neighborhood in an updated shopping center in McLean, VA. The boutique is beautiful and unique with a noticeably high- end, elevated feel that is reminiscent of her first location in Potomac, MD. From the moment you enter the space, you can see the details and evidence of her builder’s work, who happens to be her husband, Ben. This location is long and narrow, so we added multiple built-in cabinets again. These five cabinets showcase the branded product mix and add some architectural
interest to the space. There is a a geometric print wallpaper behind the spacious, custom-built cash wrap and an accent wallpaper in the back of the boutique which disguises the double doors to the stock room and can be used as a backdrop for a social media moment, but the newest detail is on the fitting room walls, where Ben used closet doors to create a high-end millwork look. Additional fun features of this location include black and white geometric patterned rugs along with well-placed imagery in her fitting rooms. These accents give it a warm and cozy vibe while maintaining a boutique feel.

Dana’s is well on her way to becoming McLean’s favorite place to shop!

“NOW OPEN: ALB BOZEMAN”
BY: STEPHANIE DOWNES

After working closely with Danni and her team, I had the opportunity to visit the Bozeman, Montana boutique and had the privilege of seeing her gorgeous location! She has an incredibly spacious boutique in the Gallatin Valley Mall in Bozeman, surrounded by beautiful mountains, and is located just off of the highway, with plenty of parking. I absolutely loved her unique “bump-outs,” ample fitting room space, and Slatwall panels, which gives her space tons of personality and character. She also has a gorgeous cash wrap area and beautiful lighting throughout!

Thank you to Danni and Daniel for including us throughout your journey and on your special day!
