We have decided to use only on of the store front's for now. the other is going to be storage and our office. (and of course a place to make our product Smiley. It sure is nice to be able to go into the shop and make everything.I can sure get alot done in one day.lol .. I have all the bath salts, milk bath. carpet fresh, tea baths. whipped shea done so far. Tommorrow im going in and make 5 loafs of soap, Bath melts, and Bath bombs.Insruance was a pita to get but finally got it Smiley. The business license got here I think last week sometime.(Its already hanging on the wall)We got the pc all hooked up today and we have our own email addy for the store Yaaaa.. Everything that I have ordered is slowely coming in . Today I got to more boxes. Im waiting on the FFB and a few more thing but all in all its almost all here. I have got my labels done but for the life of me can not get them to download to here. design pro saves them at a different format and I can't figure out how to get it to a different format.I would love to show you all what they look like but can't figure it out.(any help would be useful here please).Im still in la la land just because I can't believe I took the plung and doing this. I never ever thought this dream would come true. WinkIt is hard work but it is work that I love doing Smiley Im still getting up the nerve to do my soaps.(tommorrows the big day) Im scared but im gona do it . I have got the molds all lined nd ready to go. Hubby bought me some very good protective wear. and good masks.(Im surprised he didn't get me one of them gas mask thingys lol ... He will be with me tommorrow when I soap.(we took vacation this week to get the store in order somewhat)Im soaping the next 2 days. Then im takeing Sat and Sun to be with hubby and the kids. Man o man ya all should see Little Addison.(granddaughter) she is almost 3 months old already) She is albsolutely a Beauty. She is smiling and cooing all the time now. It's so funny when she tries to talk.I would love to post a pic of her but.... if I do it will have to stay just a short time. Ill remove it Fast. So ill post before i do her pic k ..

Sounds like the store is coming along great!
 
To get your lables into .jpg format, bring them up on the screen, and hit alt+print screen.  This will capture an image of your screen.   Open Microsoft paint.  Push ctrl+v.  This will paste the screen image into paint.  Crop out the unnessasary stuff, and save.  Someone else who uses the program you do might have a better way, but this is what I always do in a pinch.
