Well, we did it.  We are up and running in our new location.  Here are some pics of the finished (almost) product.

Big thanks to all who helped us and worked so hard to make this happen… Jack and Anita Holliday, Pete Gosney and the Gosnians, Kris Beatty, Gord & Lenore Shepherd, Tom Clegg, Graham & Erin, Nelson Grizzlies Rugby Club, John & Richard at Kootenay Lake Electric, Scott & Jamie and the crew at TerraTherma, Nancy at NDCU, The Nelson Daily News, Mark and King Oscar at Summit Painting and to all the nice folks who’ve took the time to show their support during the move and reno.  You all rule.

The Date is getting closer and we are very excited. See you soon.

The work continues at 273 Baker. Everything that needed to change is now gone and the new space is starting to come together. The Big move happens at the beginning of April and we will be open for business shortly after that. Stay tuned for the opening announcement.

Shielded from the public eye, the drastic changes continue.

The drastic changes continue at our new Baker street location. Early this morning the crew tore into the face of the building. The entire storefront was removed to make way for a thorough upgrade. The inside is also progressing nicely with the completion of the in-floor heating system and shiny new concrete slab.

Well the cat is out of the bag, Big Cranium’s new location has been finalized. We will make our new home at 273 Baker Street which for more than 50 years was the location of Nelson Woodworking Co. The building is now undergoing an extreme makeover that began at the beginning of February with the removal of everything on the inside, including the walls and floor right down to the dirt. New supports have been put in to stabilize the building as well as completely new electrical and plumbing. To bring things up to date a fully wheelchair accessible washroom and energy efficient, in floor heating system are being installed. The exterior will also get some attention with the front of the building being restored and painted with new colours. Finally, new signage designed to accent the building’s historic character will be created to bring the new shop to life. In the end we will have more space to work in and a convenient downtown location to better serve our customers. The interior is expected to be complete by the end of March and we will be opening the doors for business in April. Until then you can still find us at our Hall Street location. Thanks to contractors, Kris Beattie and crew and Pete Gosney and crew, for all their hard work. Check back for info on our grand opening.

New this year to Big Cranium is the addition of top of the line sticker and decal making equipment. Our machine uses thermal transfer ribbon technology to produce brilliant full colour vinyl stickers which can be cut to any shape and size up to 26”. This type of printer also allows us to create durable, fade resistant, weatherproof stickers with no fumes or mess. All these factors combine to make Big Cranium the best local supplier of full colour stickers.

Big Cranium also makes conventional die cut vinyl lettering and graphics for signage and vehicle applications. With over 10 years of sign experience we can provide on site consultation and professional installation service.
