A8 Wednesday, January 8, 2020 The Dalles Chronicle TheDallesChronicle.com MARKETPL ACE Looking good is no accident Makeovers are coming in several forms on East Second Street these days. Nichole Jellum, 43, opened Beau Toi (pronounced Bo- twa) day spa and salon at 308 E. second St. last October. She and husband, Matt, have also been making over the building, the former site of Aero Print. Last summer, Jellum took one look at the three- story building built in 1881 and said, “I’ll take it.” Building manager Bill Dick and her husband just Word on the Street Tom Peterson looked at each other, kind of stunned, she said. The place needed work. A lot of work. But it also fit Jellum’s vision—with hair and nail services on the first floor and esthetics on the second. It also had room for indepen- dent hairdressers, nail techs, masseuses and estheticians. The space spoke to her even though it was covered in wood paneling, old carpet and windows covered in plastic sheeting. The renovation has been a team effort. The building is owned by Mareta Maier and the Dick family of Dick, Dick and Corey Attorneys. And here’s the deal. The Jellums are investing tens of thou- sands of dollars into the re- model but they are recouping their money through rent reduction. “That was an incredible offer of support,” Jellum said on Thursday. The first floor of transfor- mation is complete. White walls and a black ceiling are grounded with restored warm maple wood floors with an open and airy feel. Route 30’s Bryan LaRoque built the front counter and desk with salvaged wood from Sorosis Park. The counter has a stream of blue flowing through it in a “river of tranquility.” Even daughter, Chloe, 8, has had a hand in the work, using ear protection and a palm sander to prep wood surfaces. “This all comes from the heart,” Jellum said, looking around the first floor, point- ing out her own personal affects and those made by friends that adorn the walls. “I want people to just melt in here,” she said.
