You've probably heard of it before...

Formerly known as Yellowstone Upholstery, the store--now named Old Yellowstone Upholstery--has switched hands a few times.

The newest owner is none other than 19 year old Michaela Fairbanks.

Fairbanks took over in July, but today was the official Grand Opening Celebration and Ribbon Cutting for the store.

Casperites might recognize one of the store's long-time employees ("on-and-off since the 60's"), Michaela's grandmother, Weslyn Fairbanks--"but people just call me Wes," she said.

"It's nice to give things a second life," beamed Wes--alluding to both their work revitalizing antique furniture and an old business in Casper.

The store is located at 300 W Yellowstone Hwy in Casper. It's open Monday through Friday from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM.

Old Yellowstone Upholstery features Charlotte's Fabrics, which are now on sale.
