Hey, everyone. I'm Shanda, and I'm the owner of Branded Envy. We carry rustic home furnishings, and we're a boutique. We like to have a little bit of everything, something for everyone, but we're not like anyone. We started in October of 2010, kind of on a whim. There was nothing else here in Bismarck, North Dakota, like this, and so I wanted to bring some new and unique items to the area. So we kind of started in a small, little strip mall in a space that we had available, and we started for the holiday season, and then we started. We decided to stay open for another month, and then another month, and then six months. Well, you get the idea. We're still here seven years later. We're located at 919 East Main Avenue in Bismarck, North Dakota. Come on, and I will show you around our store. We have juniper furniture that's all handmade. It has turquoise inlaid inside the furniture. We've got a lot of unique pieces, some done by local artists, some we have brought in from other places around the country from builders that we know as well. We have beds, dining room tables, nightstands. You name it, we kind of stock it. And if we don't have it in this store, we can likely get it for you or have one of our builders make it for you. We also have dining room tables and everything that goes along with that. The dishware, knives, the decor pieces, center pieces, and all of that. One thing we're very proud of is we are an American hat dealer, and we're one of the largest dealers of American hats in quite a wide area. We have a huge selection of straws and felts in the store at pretty much any time. And we shape hats as well, which is another thing that's unique because there's not very many people that can shape hats or that will shape hats that are left anymore. Come on. We'll show you our boot selection. We carry lane boots, Old Gringo, Double D Ranch, and Liberty Black. And as you can see, we have quite a big selection and variety of those as well. I kind of have a boot problem myself, so this is one of the areas that I really. My style is a little unique. I rodeo, and so I have a little bit of a western flair, But I also like to be trendy and to kind of keep up with the style. So I like things that I can pair with something western or, like, I'm wearing the Liberty Black, the fringe, that sort of thing. And there's a lot of people like me around the area, so I try and keep in a lot of the new styles and things that you aren't going to find at other stores around here.
