Busy, Busy, Busy!

So school is starting soon and we are in the process of gearing up for fall events. Our design team will have their first meeting this week, and I am not even ready for that. Next weekend is the swap and shop, and my mind seems to be focused on what I should be trying to sell or trade. I love rummage sales and ones that are geared toward my “addiction” are more worth the effort than any other.

As I am going through my old paper punches and stamps, I think that I should still be using these tools! I paid good money for them and at one time I was excited about having it. Then something new and more exciting took it’s place and I pushed them to the back recesses of the drawer. I know that these fine treasures still have a lot of uses in them. So I think I will design a class for new uses for old tools. Let me know what you think of this. Reinventing fun new projects for our expensive toys will make all of us feel better about the money that we have put into these tools.

Some of you may have noticed that the Facebook integration has gone away.  Well it hasn’t Gone away forever.  We have just found some bugs with it that caused issues with other parts of the site so we have taken it down for now until we can fix the issue.  You still have normal access and can fully access the site.  Once we have the issue resolved we will let you know.  Thank you for your patience and understanding.

I spend a great deal of time at the store, but I don’t think I could if I didn’t feel like we were family and it was a warm welcoming place. Whenever a person walks through the door someone greets them, even if it is a shout “Hello” coming from the back work room. In every family there is conflicts or disagreements but it doesn’t affect our genuine concern for each other. The most incredible thing to me is that there is always room for one more! Anyone is welcome…whether you have blue hair and rock an awesome attitude or you like to remain under your headphones and listen to your music in your own little world. We respect each other just as you are! I love to come in and be encouraged by people in different parts of their life, like the mother of a toddler or the great grandma of six! So I write this to say thank you to all my sisters and brothers for the bottom of my happy heart!
