COULD ARRIVE. SO KEEP CHECKING THE FORECAST. LISA: THIS IS SPAR T, THE PINK DOOR DAY SPA FOR GIRLS. THIS IS THE OWNER, SERRITA MURRAY. COME IN. WHAT A GREAT IDEA FOR A BUSINESS. HOW DID YOU COME UP WITH THIS? >> SO SPARTY ORIGINATED FROM 16, ALMOST 17-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER. I ADOPTED HER FOUR YEARS AGO. SO WE HAD TWO GREAT THINGS TO CELEBRATE. WE'RE CELEBRATING HER ADOPTION AND HER FOURTH BIRTHDAY. SO BECAUSE IT'S ME, I HAD TO BE UNIQUE AND OUT OF THE BOX AND WE DECIDED TO DO A BIRTHDAY PARTY FOR HER. WE WANTED TO DO A SPA BIRTHDAY PARTY. ALONG WITH THAT, I WANTED TO DO SOMETHING UNIQUE. WE DECIDED TO DO A TEA PARTY. SO THE SPA, WE DID THEIR NAILS, THEY GOT PEDICURES. THEY MADE BRACELETS AND THEN AT THE END OF THE PARTY, WE ENDED WITH A TEA PARTY. HAVING SAID THAT, I THOUGHT THIS IS A GOOD CONCEPT. THE PARENTS DROP THE KIDS OFF TO MY HOME. THEY ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT. THE GIRLS HAD A GREAT TIME. I THOUGHT WE MIGHT BE ON TO SOMETHING HERE. >> SO YOU HAVE THIS GORGEOUS SHOP. SO WHAT HAPPENS OVER HERE? YOU GET DIFFERENT PACKAGES. THE GIRLS CAN COME IN -- >> SO SPAR-TEA, IF YOU LOOK AT THE NAM, IT'S SPAR AND THEN YOU SEE THE PAR, AND THEN YOU SEE THE TEA. ALL PUT TOGETHER, IT'S A SPA TEA PARTY. THE DIFFERENT PACKAGES, CANVAS PAINTING, YOGA, ZUMBA, SLIME, OR JEWELRY BEADING. AFTER THE GIRLS GET FINISHED WITH THE FIRST PART OF THE SERVICES, THEY GET LITTLE NANIS AND PEDDIES. WE DON'T DO CUTTING OF CUTICLES OR ACRYLICS. IT'S FOR LITTLE GIRLS. WE SOAK, CLEAN, POLISH. AFTER THE NAILS ARE DONE AND THEY'VE PAINTED AND DID SLIME OR YOGA, IN THE BACK ROOM WE DO A HAND AND FOOT MASSAGE, ALL PRETEND NO DEEP TISSUE. A LITTLE HAND MASSAGER AND THE GIRLS LOVE IT. THAT'S PROBABLY THE FUNNIEST PART FOR THE GIRLS. THEY'RE DYING LAUGHING, SCREAMING AT THIS POINT THAT THEY'RE GETTING A MASSAGE. AFTER WE GET FINISHED WITH EVERYTHING, WE SIT DOWN TO THE TABLE HERE AND WE DO A FRUIT AND VEGGIE PLATTER, FOLLOWED BY CUP CAKES AND TEA AND HAVE A TEA PARTY. LISA: SOUNDS LIKE A LOT OF FUN. WHAT DO THE PACKAGES START AT? >> THEY START AT ABOUT 650 AND GO TO 675 FOR THE FULL BIRTHDAY PARTY. INCLUSIVE. WE DO EVERYTHING FROM THE INHAVE ITATIONS TO THE CAKE, THE TEE, THE DECO, ALL INCLUSIVE PACKAGE. LISA: COME HERE AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO CLEAN ANYTHING UP. >> YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO ANYTHING. WE DO IT ALL. LISA: IN THIS TIME OF COVID, HOW ARE YOU MAKING SURE EVERYBODY IS SOCIALLY DISTANCED. YOU HAVE A LOT OF MOMMY AND ME THINGS GOING ON NOW. >> SO, UNFORTUNATELY, WITH COVID, WE'RE NOT DOING THE VERY LARGE PARTIES LIKE WE USED TO. THEY ARE STILL AN OPTION IF PEOPLE WOULD LIKE TO. BUT WE'RE DOING A LOT OF MOMMY AND ME EVENTS. MOMMY AND ANY SPA DAY. SOME MOMS COME IN, EITHER BEAD JEWELRY, MAKE SLIME OR CANVAS PAINT WITH THEIR DAUGHTERS AND THEY GET THE MANI AND PEDI. THE WHOLE TIME THEY'RE HERE, THEY'RE HAVING MASKS ON. WHEN THEY SIT DOWN, BECAUSE WITH THE PLAY DATE, AFTER YOU GET -- WHILE YOUR NAILS ARE DRIVING, WE SEND YOU LEMONADE IN A CHAMPAGNE FLAUT AND A SNACK. THEY'RE SITTING TOGETHER, DRINKING LEMONADE OUT OF A CHAMPAGNE FLUTE, HAVING SNACKS WITH MOM. THEY TAKE OFF THEIR MASKS, BUT WE KEEP OURS ON THE ENTIRE TIME. A LOT OF SANITIZING WHEN THE CLIENTS LEAVE BETWEEN OUR PLAY DATES. WE'RE MAKING SURE EVERYTHING IS CLEAN AND SANITIZED. >> ALL RIGHT SO PEOPLE JUST NEED TO GIVE YOU A CALL AND MAKE AN APPOINTMENT. >> ABSOLUTELY. GIVE US A CALL. COME IN. WE'D LOVE TO HAVE YOU. LISA: WHAT ARE YOUR HOURS? >> WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY BY APPOINTMENT. OPEN AT 11:30. CLOSE AT 5:00 DURING THE WEEK. ON THE WEEKENDS, WE'RE HERE UNTIL 6:00. >> SERITA MURRAY AND SPAR TEA. >> THE PINK DOOR DAY SPA. WE'VE HAD RED DOOR. WE'RE THE PINK DOOR. WE'RE LOCATED IN CROSS KEYS. LISA: THAT IS
