Nightstand is Open and Now Back in the Blogisphere

It has been quite a while since my last Blog.  We have been spending an inordinate amount of time and energy ramping up the new year and officially opening our doors to the public.  THe previous blogs were dedicated to some of the work that went into the planning and construction.  Months later, a super storm, and delayed delivery of electricity from our power company, and we are now open for business, and developing strategic partnerships with some unique creative outlets.

Here is a brief look inside the new Nightstand Studios and Nightstand Creations, Inc.


More exciting news and content to follow.

Nightstand Studios Progress Blog 8

It has been a month since my last post. One would hope that great progress has been made since then. Well YES it has, and we are getting close to opening day. If PSE&G brings us our new power in the next week, we should be ready for our Oct 1 opening. Floors are being installed, as well as painting, ceilings, and lights are near completion. Furniture will start arriving next week! We will be in production before we know it. More pics to follow.

Nightstand Studio Progress Blog 6

After a couple weeks of precision work that was not quite that demonstrative of progress, we are ready for the big push of insulation and drywalling and finally closing in the working spaces. HVAC interior work is done, the rough plumbing and electric is done, and the truckload of soundproofing insulation has been delivered. Insulation to commence tomorrow, and drywall to commence on Monday!
Pretty soon, lights, camera, action!
