Some Advanced Dates

 While we're in between snowstorms, we'd like to fill you in on some things that are coming up.  We don't have our complete calendar done for March yet, but we do know some of the classes and events we will be offering and when they will be.







We will be having our annual tag sale on Saturday, March 21st!!  This is always a very popular and successful event and we've already been receiving inquiries about it.  This is your opportunity to sell those paper-crafting items you've outgrown, gotten tired of, or don't use anymore. 

• You'll gather all of your gently used and still working punches,stamps, papers, and embellishments.  
• Call the store for your special identification number (860-658-9023).  
• Clearly mark all your items with your number and price.  
• All prices must be in $1 increments (no partial dollars please). 
• Make sure all tags are firmly attached. We cannot be responsible for lost items with no tags. 
• Bag together loose items like papers and ribbons and embellishments. Sell as a bundle. (Please do not mark items with prices like "4 for $1".) 
• Bring your items to the store during business hours between Wednesday, March 18 and Friday, March 20.  
• Pick up any unsold items by Tuesday, March 24th before closing.
• Any items not picked up will be donated to a charity of our choosing.  Let us know if you'd like to donate.
• You do not need to be here to sell your things.  We will take care of that BUT I am sure you'll want to see what your friends have for sale and get some great deals.
• You will be issued a store credit for the amount you sell.

Don't forget, the Graphic 45 Class is filling up. In order to know how many kits to order, we must have your registration by March 20th.  You will be making a Mixed Media Book using the "Home Sweet Home" collection of papers.  The class is being held at 10:30 am on Monday, April 13th, at First Church in Simsbury (the big white church on the corner of routes 10 and 167), and the cost is $60.
