Back from the holidays, its snowing in Chicago and flooding in Washington. The Seattle store just opened its doors. The first few days were damped by record rain falls but it did not dampen the employees spirits and now the store is off to a great start. Portland is next, paint is going up and we are hoping for a January Grand Opening date. We work hard at keeping our costs down and sourcing at the lowest possible prices so its exciting to see people recognize and respond so well to the values. As long as we don't loose focus of this reality our growth will continue.
The warehouse in Oakland just got the first shipment of 4 new sku additions to the Reclamation Plank collection. It is an unusual species, African Black Walnut in a solid 3/4 thickness xtra wide at nearly 8" and we even spec'd it out with a 3mm neoprene cushion on the back. These new ones are really nice, in fact one of the operating partners of simplefloors just put this throughout her new home. I will get and post some pictures of how it turned out.
When I typed this I did not have it online but if you are reading it chances are it is live now. You can see it by clicking here. http://www.simplefloors.com/products/Hand-Scraped-Flooring/Reclamation-Plank/collection21.aspx
