The first CHA arrivals...





these CUTE collections by Three Bugs in a Rug! The top picture shows a couple of Christmas products that I just couldn't resist picking up. The new collections are called "The Great Outdoors" and "Animal Crackers". (Click on any image to enlarge.)
We've carried several Three Bugs collections in the past, and believe me, they won't last long...

Top and bottom pictures show some new goodies that just came in--you won't believe the prices on these! The middle picture is of Mrs. Judy, one of our many talented customers, with a canvas she created using some paper and embellishments she bought at our store. How awesome is that--and how beautiful is that family? =)

Inclement Weather Hours for Thursday

We'll be open from 9 until 12 on Thursday, January 7th. While you're out getting milk and bread, drop by and pick up some scrapping supplies in case you get snowed in for a day or two. =)

We'll play it by ear on Friday. If the roads are clear and schools are open, then we'll be here normal hours, 10 until 5:30. If the roads look bad in the a.m. but are going to improve, we'll come in late. We'll post on Friday morning what we're planning to do.

Be safe and try to stay warm!
