Found By Create

On thursday, my class mates and I all went to Found By Create in the St Johns Centre, a new charity store just opened which sells vintage clothing.

We arrived for 9am, to help the owners style the store and have it ready for the grand opening at 1pm that afternoon. We all had tasks to do such as designing rails to creating looks for manakins. Once finished in the store, we handed out flyers to buyers to advertise the opening, and then all gathered outside for the arrival of Calendar and the Lord Mayor. We then helped in the store, helping to sell the garments and talking to customers about the store. It was a really fun day and gave us all some hands on experience of what it would be like to work in a retail store. I personally feel I have a greater understanding of how a store is run due to this day.
