Renovation...back on track!



The store may be a bit of a hot mess today, but it's a happy hot mess! We've finally been able to get back to our renovation plans! A truck-load of 8-foot tall wall units from a store that recently closed in the St. Louis area was delivered late last night. Some are already in place, others will have to wait until our "labor force," AKA Stacey's hubby Jeremy, can complete the job.

The classroom windows have already been covered with displays. This was a huge wasted space! Others will go in the front of the store where the K & Company displays lined the windows, and some will go in the front corner near our wall of Thickers.

Overall, we'll gain a huge amount of display space, and be able to make some dedicated areas for both cardmaking and pocket-page scrapbooking.

It may not be pretty right now, but it's going to be gorgeous soon! More display area means more products we can bring to the Springfield area!

February Super Sketch Club components

Thanks so much to all our local customers who attend our three Saturday classes each month, and to our Super Sketch Club members, for being understanding about our not holding the classes this month and being off schedule announcing the parts that make up the SSC.

Being able to let down a little and take a bit of a break from the usual schedule has helped a great deal. I've been overwhelmed by the messages here, on Facebook, the emails, the cards, and the flowers and gifts from people near and far following the death of my grandson a few weeks ago. As happens in these instances, life eventually has to return to the normal pace, but having this respite has allowed me to spend more time with my husband and the rest of Wyatt's family, and for that, I'm very grateful.

Thanks so much.
Debbie Sanders
