SCRAPPY GLUE HAS ARRIVED

That's right ...you heard it here first -- SCRAPPY GLUE has arrived in the store.  Everyone has been waiting for months for stores to be restocked.  We have 100 bottles.  If you have some on reserve, it is ready to be picked up.  If you need some and can't get in immediately call the store and we will hold some for you.  I expect this to go fast so be sure to stop by soon.  Have a GREAT day everyone.

I'm back......it's been a while

EDITED :  JUST RECEIVED SHIPPING NOTICE ON SCRAPPY GLUE --- 100 BOTTLES SHOULD BE HERE BY TUESDAY..NO LATER THAN WEDNESDAY.  ALSO QUICKUTZ GIFT SET AND JUNE RELEASE SET BACK AGAIN TO SHIP END OF JULY SHOULD BE RECEIVING IN STORE FIRST WEEK OF AUGUST

Hey everyone....it's good to be back.  Where have I been you ask.....no where in particular...just not here.  I have been extremely busy.  We purchased some merchandisers from a store closing  and had to move all of that, as well as get it into my store.  I have also had some health issues that have taken up a lot of my time lately.  Nothing too bad or that can't be corrected but I am having to completely change my lifestyle.  This is very time consuming and I can only ask for your patience and prayers while I am making these adjustments.  We haven't been getting a lot of new things in at the store as I have been trying to wait until we go to the Trade Show in Chicago the last week of July.  I want to save all of my money to get the NEW stuff so please again, bare with us.  I cleaned up the back room last week and came across some pics of when we first opened and was amazed at how empty the store was. At the time I felt as is we had sufficient inventory but boy was I wrong.  There is now not a square inch in the store that is not taken up.  Over the next few weeks we will be running several specials to clear out some of the older lines to make room for the new ones so be sure to stop in often.  I thought I would post some pics of the flower beds outside as well as the store and some of our recent projects just to update everyone on the changes we are going through.  I hope you enjoy and again, please be patient with me as await the new merchandise from the show and as I make some adjustment in my personal life.


Here are some of the projects we've been working on around the store lately...these are just a few of many..

Made with the Silhouette Rhinestone Started Set

(love, love, love this apron)

 

Bo Bunny Product layout with my beautiful great niece Hannah Faith

 

 One of our Paper Loft lines.  We have 4 lines from this company and I love their vintage, distressed look

 

Our Kids/Youth class last month.  They made a Flag page as well as a Summer Fun Paper Bag album.  That's Denise in the background.  If you have not met her or talked to her on the phone be sure to stop in and say hi to her.  She is at the store Tues - Thurs day shift.  She also designed the projects for the kids.

Our project this month for the Kids/Youth Class.  They get to paint their birdhouses as well as cover them in paper as well as "shingle" the roof with paper from Bo Bunny (I will post pics post class)

Here are a couple of pics updated from our flower beds......

This is just a small amount of the shrubs, flowers and rose bushes we've planted.  I DO NOT have a green thumb but we have been blessed with very hardy plants and God's gift of watering so that I don't have to do anything but sit back and enjoy their beauty.

Now for a few pics of the store and it's growth.....

In the beginning......

 (this makes me laugh looking at it now...what was I thinking! )

An now.........

Thanks for taking this tour of Precious Scraps.  There is so much more to show you but I figured you are probably half asleep by now.  Thank you again for your friendships, support and patience.

 Thanks for stopping by Precious Scraps.....Love ya,  Bev
