Once Upon A Wall-CraneBagley& Co.-CraneYVON

In 1992, Marie was fresh out of college with a degree in Art, and a minor in Education-Teaching preschool at the Yeshiva Academy was the stepping stone to the business and friendships she maintains to this day. A wonderful parent asked Marie to sponge paint her bathroom-in the very popular SouthWest Theme...At the time, decorative painting required little more than a sea sponge and a little imagination. A career was born. First named, Once Upon a Wall, the business grew and changed until 1996 when she met Gina Bagley. Over the span of 8 years CraneBagley&Co. worked happily together in many  homes and businesses. (To this day, both say there was no better job...every day a good laugh.) Taking time off to be with her two small boys, Marie started back slowly. The creative energy was renewed when her dear friends, Essie and Denis Laflamme asked her to paint their dream restaurant, Cafe Esselon  in an Old Parisian style. As the paint business started to grow again, Marie and Jim chose to take it  to the next level. CraneYvon maintains a philosophy of complete client satisfaction. It is their privilege and sincere pleasure to work with clients, many of whom become friends...It is their personal touch, that keeps the invaluable "word of mouth"  their number one form of advertising.
