Sidewalk sales

I'm heading to Kitchener tomorrow to celebrate my daughter Andrea's birthday with her. After that I'll be spending a few days in Burlington with a good friend who I haven't seen in way too long. Looking forward to some "girl time" and lots of laughter. When I get back I'll be sharing some info regarding my participation in the Kingsville sidewalk sales on August 7th and 8th. I still have lots of goodies to sell and their will be some amazing bargains so stay tuned!

Who wants it?

Here is the fabulous custom made stamp shelf I bought just last year but have decided to let go. It has an oak veneer finish and is 56" wide by 55.75" high and just 4" deep. I need at least $150 for it, but if there are several people interested I'm open to a bidding war ...lol! I've posted this on Facebook too ...just call or send me an e-mail if you are interested.

Organized Chaos!

Well folks, there is now a big screen TV where the wall of dies used to be and my class room looks like a yard sale in progress! I still have tons of inventory left but I'll worry about that when I get back from visiting my sister in Cobourg this week. I won't be blogging again until next week but I'll have lots of news and info then so stay tuned. Have a great week :)

End of the road ....

Well here we are! It's the last day of welcoming friends and friends-to-be into my shop. My heart is so full right now I don't even know what I'm feeling exactly ... but mostly, I feel gratitude for the opportunity to get to know so many wonderful people since October 2009. Rainy days usually make me feel a little sad, so I'll blame the rain and look forward to sunny days ahead. I don't know what the future may hold for me, but I do know that the past 5 years have been some of the happiest and rewarding of my working life, and it will be very hard to find something I could enjoy as much. All good things must come to an end though right? Thanks for being part of my journey ...it's been a joy!

Last week of business ... great deals for you!

I hope no-one was trying to get in touch yesterday. We were without power after the storm Monday night until 1 am today so I had no e-mail or phone. The good news is, the computer still works (yes I was panicking!) and there are HUGE markdowns in the shop today until my last day on Saturday. Many items have already been marked down by 50% or more and starting today (with a very few exceptions, which I will list here) - everything in the shop will be marked down by 40%. Dies and adhesives will be marked down 30% (with the exception of Scor Tape products) so stock up on your tape runners and refills. Individual sheets of 8.5 x 11 metallic cardstock are now .75c each and Bazzill 8.5 x 11 cardstock is now .40 cents (regular .50c a sheet) Also if anyone has any of the brown string handle bags I use hanging around, it would help me out if you could bring a couple in when you shop, as I am running VERY low with only 4 days to go! Hope to see you soon:)

Bargains galore!

I've packed some 12 x 12 solid colour and patterned papers into bins so I could remove some of the racks that have been sold but the place looked a bit bare so I put up a bargain table. Everything on this table has been reduced by 50% or more. There are so many great deals in the shop and only today and next Wed- Saturday to take advantage of them ... hope to see you soon:)

6 days left to shop!

Well, I had my final evening class here yesterday and I felt absolutely lost when the girls left! Good thing I'm starting up classes again in September at the Artisan Studio of Kingsville as I can't imagine giving up card class! There are only 6 days left to shop here ... I'm closed this Saturday till next Wednesday and Saturday June 27th will be the final day of sales. Payment is by cash or cheque only and all sales are final. If you have asked to have paper racks set aside they should be available for pick up any time next Tuesday afternoon or later. Please call ahead to make sure we are home if you plan to come outside store hours. I still have quite a few racks left so let me know if you are interested.
