Stargazers & Prisma Pencils class



We have a 2 card class coming up in November. Since the Stargazers take a little while to dry, we can be working on another card with Prisma Pencils. Anita Vowell has 2 lovely cards she has created and will be teaching on Friday, November 5th. at 10am. Class size is limited, for individual attention. (This is a more advanced stampers class).

Crochet Class October 5th.


We have added a Tuesday evening Crochet Class. It is next Tuesday, October 5th. with Glenda Jaccard, at 6pm.
Those whom are already registered, will need a G hook, (#8), and cotton yarn. Hope I got that right, as I do not know how to crochet, but need the class myself!
Here is a lovely baby blanket Glenda made (and I bought for my niece).
The first class will be beginners, so we will be making a dish cloth.
Call for more info.


Cross Stitch classes


We have an incredibly talented instructor for cross stitch and will open our first class on Friday, October 29th. for a 6pm class. The follow-up class will be November 19th.
Diane Payne has some really beautiful pieces, but this one is my favorite. Note the 2 tigers walking towards the eye, in the reflection. Yes, this is cross stitching. (This is not the class she is teaching..this is very advanced, but I couldn't help but show off her art!).
Call to register for an Ornament Class in Cross Stitch, cost is $20.00 for both classes.

Tuesday Take Away...


This week we are doing some embossing and faux stitching. Hope you can join us.

M & T


I did not have time to add the M&T we did for Grand Opening, so here it is.
I am so pleased with the 2 punches I used of Martha Stewart. One on the top edge and one on the bottom edge, to make the "faux fence."
Need to write Martha and let her know, right? Maybe get a punch or 2 for MTTC.....

Loralie Stamps


This has got to be one of the cutest cards I have seen. It was made by Joy Bates and she included pearls and some tulle for the hat. So sassy! Gotta love them Loralie's . We do have some left and will be ordering more in. Let us know your favorites.

and more....



Specials rack.



















Stamps & Cosmo Cricket.
Loralie, Flourish, Crafty Secrets and more stamps.

Paintings














The paintings are by June Littell and framed by RiverWind Gallery. We thought they made our place look more "comfy".

Photos of retail area


Here are some long awaited photos of our retail area. It is small, but quaint. Let us know if you are looking for something, perhaps we can order it in.

Sign hanging




We were running on a tight schedule, getting our sign hung on Friday am, the day before opening.
All the fuss and this guy hung it alone, in less than a half hour! Impressive Joe, (which was the name on his shirt. But I thought he said Rick-not sure of memory lately, unless he borrowed a shirt). Anyway, he was very nice and fast.
We want to mention too, that our sign was designed by a Signature School senior, Angela Jordan. Thanks Angela...wonderful art work. Everyone who saw it, has loved it.
