Do you need a new painting for a blank wall in your home? Beatitudes recently made the shopping assignment easier for customers. A brief rearrangment of the store layout resulted in a relocation of pictures and paintings. Previously on the walls above clothing racks, these items are now easier to examine in a corner of the store.
