Tour of My New Book Stores! The Book Peddler 

Phil, it is a remarkable and wonderful transformation. I was smiling ear to ear as you were touring us around both buildings. can’t wait to see it in person. Kudos for your powerful vision.

So happy to see the flowers and plantings outside...a nice greeting! (great Hostas!) You put so much thought into the feel of the interiors, and it shows! It's a good thing I don't live nearby, it looks like a place I'd SPEND too much time in! I love that you got your sign hanger on "a pick"! A true sign of frugality...and creativity! The placards info in front of many of your books in your first shop should be very appreciated. Your hard work will pay off, in more friends and connections with other book people. As far as *Recharging your town*...WOW! Inspiring work! It's not just the business...it's the life! Great work.

Carson and Lani love it uncle Phil. Truly inspiring! Keep up the good work and we love you. The Swartwood family

I love what you've done with the original shop, it's so much more open and you can see all the books!

You've done an amazing job preparing for opening day. Both stores have a great day look and feel. Keep the ax near by at all times just in case anyone tries to haggle prices. I hope you have a huge turnout. I love the job your mom did with the curtains. Much luck to you and your business Phil you deserve it. ❤

Good Job !

Thanks

WOW Phil, both shops look pretty epic. We can see a lot of work went into all the transformation. Nothing like having a good team behind you to help out right ( family), LOL. Onwards and upwards to you as you go forward with both properties. Thanks for the tour.

Shop looks great, I like the book tags to read.

Wow Phil So happy and excited for you! Both shops look amazing with such attention to detail. It appears to be truly your calling to be a Book Peddler. Now you are town treasure. Congratulations! I look forward to visiting your shops in the future and definitely want to buy a t-shirt. All the best from the Book Peddler in Tennessee.

Very proud of you Phil, and to have a tour of the shop was exciting, looks so good and you are going to excel beyond your vision....

The shops look great! You're right to be proud of what you've achieved. I hope the first is fabulous for you!

This is Phenomenal!!!! You are Inspiring to all of any age!!!

You have so much to be proud of. You're doing a great job. It looks great. Wishing you the best of luck.

very well done!!!! Wow what a change in both places` praying your opening day is wonderful!

I Love how store 1 looks, and store 2 looks like Money machine. I was really hoping to make it up there for the opening, but life is not co operating at the moment. Off to fill out the questionnaire ✌️

🙌

Both stores look awesome! I wish I was closer. Congrats!

Came together nicely 👍

Love these videos! Keep them coming!

Both shops look gorgeous. Congrats, Phil!

Wow! The stores look amazing! Your hard work has really shows. I hope you have a successful opening on June 1.

Place is looking GOOD, Phil ! Wish I could be there for your Grand Opening, but it's a long way from the right side of Texas. Won't even be able to watch the live, on-line, opening as I am going to a library sale on Saturday about 4 hours away from here. But, non-the-less, I wish you well and hope you have a GREAT day ! I sure would like to pick through that hunting and fishing section and I can see many a jam session on your patio. Be sure and video them when they happen. Good luck buddy, oldnndway (old and in the way)

Both stores look great!! Good luck this weekend.

Hey Phil! Shop looks great. So much hard work and care shines through. The coffee is a nice touch. Great Minds Drink Alike. Hope to make it out your way in the future. Wishing you the best in all your endeavors.

Two Shops, a haircut, coffee and merch. All you need is a woman! Congratulations

Both look good

That is the most quaint bookstore I've ever seen!! Nice job Mr. Book Peddler :)

Nice work

I’m a New Yorker as well. Love what you’re doing. Would the back be open to sit and read ? Some tables ?

Great job. ‘Neighbor!’ - See you Saturday! Good Luck! (Michael and Sheryl Evans, Smithville)

What is the difference between softcover and Paperback? Your cost sign in the red building says $4 for Hardcover/Softcover and Paperbacks are $1 a piece. When you say Paperback are you meaning mass market paperbacks? I am wondering if that softcover/paperback would confuse the customer. Both stores look great. I would come to the grand opening buy I am much too far away.

The store and displays look great! Do you ever buy classics? I know you once had a jane Austen book and someone beat me to it. How much is your very large 1776 David McCullough book, the one in the case? (@9:40 in the video). I'm interested in American history nonfiction and vintage and classics; Trollope, Austen, Dickens, Hardy, etc.
