How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
1987 John Hartinger purchased an existing paint store called “St. Anthony Paints” in St. Anthony, Minnesota. By adding a complete line of wallcoverings, he quickly became the “hot-spot” for home and office decorating in the Minneapolis metro area.
1990 John and his family opened their 2nd store in Blaine, MN. This store would serve as the headquarters for the next 10 years.
1992 The 3rd Wallpapers Plus store opens in Burnsville, MN.
1994 The 4th Wallpapers Plus store opens in Cambridge, MN.
1996 John and his family made the decision to start an online wallpaper store called americanhomefashions.com. With this website, the Hartinger family was literally one of the first wallcovering retailers to enter the world wide web market.
2000 The website’s name was changed to fyhome.com offering one of the most extensive collections of murals, wallcoverings and unique wall décor.
2004 John handed over the website portion of the business to his oldest son Eric. The website continued to grow with an ever expanding inventory and selection.
2007 Eric changed the website name back to it’s original family name of wallpapersplus.com.
