Wow, summer just
flew by. I can’t believe it’s already time for school to start! We have an awesome
Back to School Sale going on right now in the shop: 30% off of all papercrafting
and office supplies! Paper, punches, embellishments, ribbon, scrapbooks, stamps,
tools, the list goes on and on. We also have 30% off Papaya and Iota bags. It’s
a great time to pick up any craft supplies that you’ve been needing or that the
kids might need for school. We also have some exciting things planned for
August and September:
August 23rd: Art Board and Frame Class! Create one
of a kind custom frames for special photos and/or unique pieces of artwork for
your home. You may bring your own photos to use, otherwise all materials

embellishments), $26.00. 7:00-9:00pm

August 30th: 4-5 year old Children’s Art Class!

your family taking classes, all materials provided. 4:30-5:30pm (last Thursday

September 15th: Make Your Own Stamp Class! Learn how
to carve your own rubber stamp, the possibilities are endless! Can be used to
make personalized cards and stationery, embellish scrapbook pages, in artwork,
or on anything you can think of :-). Depending on the type of ink/paint
you use, stamps can be used on paper, fabric, wood, and even sheetrock. 2:00-4:00pm.
$35.00, includes carving tool, tracing paper, rubber blocks, ink, wood, and
corks. Because we have to order in so many supplies for this class, we are
asking that you sign up and prepay by Sept. 5th.
Our DIY this month is a sweet jar
garland we have for sale in the shop. There are soooo many things you can do
with Mason jars, and about as many things you can do with paper ones! We cut
out jars from “Twinkling Lights” Dear Lizzy paper, punched holes in the lids,
and strung yarn through them. Next we had fun embellishing them with buttons,
rickrack, baker’s twine, and fabric flowers. Finally we cut strips of material
and tied them in between the jars. Makes a simple, but sweet garland for the
end of summer:-).
PS
For those of you that do not live in the area, we are adding more and more
things to our Etsy shop, and will be updating our website soon with more information about custom
orders.
Thanks!
