The beginnings of a transformation.

We're so, so close. It's wild! Whitney and I can hardly believe that our dream is only days away from becoming a reality. We can't stop smiling. And we hope you can't stop smiling, either, when you come visit. You are coming to visit, right? Speaking of visiting...mark your calendars, friends:

Gus & Ruby Letterpress opening day - August 7th!

206 Market Street
Portsmouth, NH 03801
(603) 319-1717
Open daily 10AM - 6PM

A few shots of the progress:

Half-walls for the window seats.

Window seats!

Gus taking some important measurements. He's a real stickler for spatial accuracy.

Just a little inventory to enter into the POS system. No big deal, right? Gulp.

Oh, hello you pretty little chandelier! Won't you look lovely in the window?

T-minus 6 days until the Grand Opening party. T-minus 7 days until we are officially OPEN! It's going to be a long, hard, wonderful 6-days, people. Feel free to call the store at 11PM - we'll be here!

Bring it on!

  2. I'm so excited for your store and can't wait til you open! I was just saying this morning, "Hmm...I wonder if Portsmouth could support a cool paper store" and then I was handed your postcard at Breaking New Grounds. Good luck getting everything ready!
