Congratulations! The art boutique was an excellent and very well timed idea. Beautiful art pieces to buy for home and presents. Timing couldn’t have been better too as many people travel home for winter vacation and quality gifts from Saudi are always very welcome. Thank you for working after hours and during week-end, it made shopping easier. I do hope you repeat that soon!
