Holiday Hours
In December, we are open on Christmas Eve from 10am-2pm, and the same hours on New Year's Eve, 10-2 pm.
Please be sure your significant (and insignificant) others are aware of our hours in case of emergency "gift certificate" need.
We are closed on Thursday, December 25, Friday, December 26,  and Thursday, January 1, 2015.

 
We currently are running a special promo in the store. You can come in anytime and get 50% off of one item, if you know the secret word, and it changes every week. This last week it was Carol, but that is all over!! Starting tomorrow, and for the next week, the secret word is Rudolph...good time of year for that, right??
This special deal may only be used one time per day, and you must tell us the "secret word" in order to get the discount. Feel free to whisper it in a conspiratorial manner!!


And, as if that wasn't enough, all Holiday and Fall papers, embellishments, stamps, and dies, are now 40% off (except for special orders, which we will continue to do, if possible.)
It's Another Kate .B Creation...
Check out this nice winter album, made by our very own Kate B. She has used the BoBunny "Altitude" line of papers, along with the Maya Road chipboard album. There is a full photo display of the album on our blog, here

Great Gift Idea
We have a special project for you, at this busy time of year...Make this really sweet notebook pad, reminder, list-keeper...We have packages for sale that include three of the lined white paper pads, a set of twelve magnets, and a full set of instructions, with photos. The kit is $11.99. You will need to supply your own paper and adhesives. We can do mail order, too. We can ship one or  two kits in a $5.25 box from the Post Office. Call us, 978-887-6397, for further details. We can do cc over the phone, or send you a paypal invoice.
 
(These kits are back in stock now, with even more in production. Terri has made thirteen so far...a lot of people will be receiving them!!)
There is a video on our Face Book page, here,  showing the entire construction of this project.  All the details are covered in the instructions included in the kit.
There are three samples in the store to check out.

I am revitalizing the Blog, too. You can find it here.

Lately, I have posted some videos on snowflake making,  using texture paste with Penny Black Holiday stencils, and making poinsettias with burlap paper...check it out!!
 
As you all may know, we had a nice response to our "Clock Contest." Thank you to everyone who entered..we appreciate all the great artistic entries. I invited a few artsy people to be the judges, (all items were numbered, so no names were known) and here are the results. There were so many great clocks that I added a "runner-up" for a $25 Gift Certificate. The winners have been notified.

Silhouette Ongoing Learning...

We now have a Silhouette group that meets here once a month and they have their own blog.  All the info about meetings, what to bring, when to come, can be found there. If you would like to join our group, there is no fee, and you can bring your Silhouette machine and laptop, as we have wifi in the store. Find the Silhouette Blog here. 
 
A few new items are arriving...
The latest Irrestible Pico Embellishers, in neon colors, are here...plus a few in some other colors...as you can see from the photo below, these have the extra-fine tip, so you can write with them, as well as create dots, lines, etc, or fill in areas of your art work. Once dry, they will resist water-based inks and paints.

Classes
a few notes...
All classes will need a minimum of three people in order to run, and we will give you a 72 hour notice if we need to cancel, in which case, you may take your refund as store credit or cash/cc refund (usually in the same form that you paid in.)

If you need to cancel a class on your part, here's the deal...
If it is a class taught by us, people here at the store, you need to cancel before 72 hours time, in which case you will receive a refund. Cancelations after this time period will receive the class supplies, and whatever is part of the class handouts. No refunds for cancelations after 72 hours before the class starts.

For visiting teachers, from far or near, there is a no refund policy for all classes. You may give it to a friend to use, if you wish.
