The new store is progressing much slower than I'd have liked & isn't really ready to open (no phone line yet, no toilets, lots of decorating to do). I did think about postponing the opening event for a week or so but have since decided against it. The reason? Well, it's largely down to one of my regular ladies who paid a visit today. In itself not an unusual event as I have people visit all the time but this lady (& you know who you are LOL) got back from her holiday today, grabbed a couple of hours sleep and dashed out to find me - all fired up & desperate to get cracking on her holiday album. Isn't it strange how you holiday in a different way when you have discovered scrapbooking?
So I thought about it & came to the conclusion that actually, no-one cares too much about whether the decorating is finished (toilets are a bit of a must for classes tho') and all that our friends and customers really want is for us to be open again - so that's what we will do!
So, 10am, this Saturday morning (June 23rd) & we'll have free make N takes, free prize draws, free refreshments, beginner's intro sessions and some other stuff. You'll also be able to book your places for new classes and all the A-MUSE-A-PALOOZA events. But you'll have to take us as you find us - there's still sooooo much to do!
Check out the sneak peek photos & see how much we've got done by Saturday LOL. The first is the shop floor, the second will be the new 'playroom' - it's all good!

so glad you're going ahead with the opening - I don't care what state the place is in as long as I can spend some money! LOL and I'm sure others feel the same!
