HEAD 'EM UP AND MOVE 'EM OUT!

...and so the big move began.

Kathy Blay and Karen Williams brought a really

LONG trailer that the guys loaded with fixtures.

Then every vehicle was loaded to the roof with boxes.

Cat and Sharon had to re-work the layout....

You know how it is---

nothing ever fits the way you wanted it!

But once they got it redesigned, everything fell into place...

with some help from us.  Sharon started setting up the ribbon bar.

Valerie started hanging up all of the Thickers.

To her left is the cardstock room where Nanci was hard at work.

Sue Neff was busy putting up all of the school papers.

I was busy with the 50 states papers and stickers.

Joyce Woodhead was busy with the summer goodies.

Ray and Cat got busy putting together another fixture,

which will hold glue and tools.

We still have lots and lots and lots to do

The tables and chairs all have to be moved.

The check-out area has to be moved.

Lots and lots and lots of product still has to be put in its place at the new store.

Plus there are boxes and boxes and boxes of new product

to be checked in, priced, and put in its places.

But, we made GREAT progress today and will 

make even more progress tomorrow.

Any and all help is appreciated!

SNEAK PEEKS

Are you ready for some peeks at the new store?

There is a window where you can 

look down memory lane.

Major upgrade in the restrooms!

This is the vanity and sink in the 

"Tim Holtz" restroom.

Cat has said that she is taking down the first

person who cleans a paintbrush in this beauty!

We actually have a sink in the crop area to use

and it is more convenient too!

Check out the "Dyan Reaveley" restroom.

Sprays of her brightly colored inks, 

whopper jawed frames...

What's not to love!!!???

It is going to be GREAT at the new store!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

We will be closed Thanksgiving Day

We will open at the new location

Cat decided to extend the STOREWIDE 50% off sale  through the end of this week.  So, if you weren't able to make it to the store this past Friday or Saturday, you will still be able to take advantage of this FANTASTIC savings!

This post is short since I'm posting it from my phone due to the lack of internet connectivity at my house.  Not sure if it is caused by the cold weather or what!

HAPPY SHOPPING!!!

THEY SHOPPED, THEY CROPPED, THEY TRIUMPHED!!!

 

They came in droves.....

they shopped like champs!

The croppers also shopped like 

true champions!

While cropping down memory lane,

the croppers shared the things they will miss

(yogurt breaks and the convenience of being

next door to El Paseo were a couple of items).

Among the things they will NOT miss were

"the pole" and the doors being locked and having to

prop the door open with the mat so that you can get

back into the mall to retrieve the rest of your bags!

Everyone is looking forward to:

the convenience of the new parking lot and ramp;

being close to Dairy Mart;

the beauty of the new store!

If you get enough snow for photographs, 

I happen to know that there is some snow paper

in the sale bins.

So, you might want to make a visit to the store

to take advantage of the 50% off on some 

beautiful snow paper and embellishments!
