AFTER years of building up businesses online, three friends are joining forces to set up shop.
Decadence – a haven of sweet smelling, sparkling and stylish trinkets – will open in Carr Lane, Grimsby, on Saturday, April 6.
It will sell fashion jewellery, Yankee candles and accessories and shabby chic furniture, provided by Helen Hudson, 35, Debra Maidens, 46 and Sarah Sanderson, 38.
Each have operated their own successful businesses on the internet and are now looking forward to having four walls they can call their own.
Helen set up her jewellery business Glitzy Bitz from her Waltham home after having two sons.
She said: "We are all dying to get in there. April can't come soon enough! We just want to get going now."
Debra, also of Waltham, will rent the shop next to Tip Top Toe salon and Sarah and Helen will pay for their floor space.
Debra also works full time as a childminding network co-ordinator and parental engagement worker for North East Lincolnshire Council.
She said: "Our shop will arouse all the senses, we will have fabulous smells, shiny sparkling jewellery and lovely furniture all in one room.
"We want people to come in and be dazzled."
New stock will be bought in every week and the online versions of the businesses will continue.
Sarah, of Scartho, a mum to two sons aged three and ten months, added: "We started our businesses to get a bit of normality after having children.
"It is great being our own bosses, having no one to answer to and meeting new people.
"We make a good team."
