: : 16 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Tuesday, April 21, 1987 Lizylou opens doors Artful home decor store One of the prettiest new stores in town has got to be Lizylou Color Craft on Queen Street. Big, bright and overflowing with the colours of the rainbow, Lizylou features in-stock wallpaper and paint, as well as an amazing array of venetian blinds and gifts On top of the vertical and venetian blinds; Lizylou retails a variety of folk art, ceramics and handcrafted work by local people, all beautiful ly designed to fit in with the scheme of the store, as well as most people's homes The general theme of the gifts, as well as the decorating supplies, is country, mainly because it is the most popular trend in Canada. However, Lizylou also sells more traditional wallcoverings, to suit any home "The response to the store has been good," says one of Lizylou's proprietors, Liz Mennega. "People like our store, they think it's nice and bright." Together with her partner, Lois ~ McMillan, she has aimed from the beginning to provide Port Perry with top quality merchandise in a pleasant setting "There was only one decorating store in Port Perry and we thought there was a real need for having an in-stock paint and wallpaper store," Mennega said. 'We thought a lot of people were going to Oshawa" McMillan added, "And we're on _ the main street, so the store is real- ly handy." The two women opened the store April 1st but have been thinking and planning for almost a year. Finally, they just decided to jump in, and began seriously planning Lizylou in January. "We're two shoppers," Ménnega admitted. 'We like to shop, and now we can go out and spend our money on the store" And they're not stopping yet. In * the near future, the pair will be in- troducing craft supplies to the store isuch as styrofoam balls and wreaths---items not usually found in this area) Both women took considerable risks in opening their own buisness Mennega, for example, left a lucrative, yet demanding, bank job to start Lizylou. "1 felt it would be more rewar- ding," she said. 'And it's worked out fine."
