Good Tuesday morning to you!! It's all a buzz already about the email that went out last night... seriously, I DO NOT want to have to count all this product while doing the physical inventory at the beginning of January, so you get to have the benefit of that!

Happy Tuesday peeps! So wonderful to feel the much warmer air & smell the freshness of the rain - all that slush/mud is so messy! LOL! So much new stuff on the shelves & my brain is running in high gear with class ideas for projects etc for the New Year! And it was my birthday yesterday, so to celebrate, I'm doing a bit of a social media experiment. When you come into the store to shop today, if you use the password CELEBRATE when you're at the counter to pay, you will get 45% off one line of your choice - (does not include the Big Shot) be it Bo Bunny's Altitude, or G45's Time to Flourish or EVEN if it's your favourite line of dies!! But you have to tell me the password! I am really curious as to how many of you are reading the daily posts! :P We are open today from 9am until 4pm! Enjoy your day friends - cheers!

Saturday, December 6, 2014

Good Wednesday morning to you! Another sunshiney day out there -- just wish that cooler wind would go away! But at least it's not snow, so NOT ready for that! Gearing up for classes & crops to start next week. A few classes are full, a couple have a minimal spots left. Just a reminder that class sign ups close 48 hours before the class in order to give us time to prepare the class kits etc. All classes must be paid for at the time of registration or you are not considered registered. No exceptions unfortunately due to the fact that we have received sign ups via internet etc & then have no shows for the class. This takes a spot from someone else who may have wanted to come. So please, call or pop by the store to pay so you know you are registered for sure! :) LOTS of new product in store - more arriving this week. I'll keep you posted on that! Store is open today from 9am - 4pm. Have a great day!
