What a difference a day makes...

okay - it was more like ten days.

A lot of hard work went into getting the store back in shape. We have been restocking old favorites and ordering new stamps, papers and embellishments for the holidays. We moved stuff all round the store.



A shout-out for their many hours of hard work goes to Jeanne, Nancy, Claudia, Laura, Terri, Chrissie and Patti's sister Kathi.



A shout-out to vendors Ten Seconds Studio, Outlines, Graphic Products and Alvin for rushing out new products to replace our damaged merchandise.



Our remnants table is overflowing with loads of stamps and embellishments that we even forgot we had! Because we need help to make way for new stuff from Tim Holtz, Ten Second Studio and Graphic 45 (just to name a few) that will be shipping starting the first week in August, all remnants table items will be 60% off until the end of July!


I was going to show more photos of the newly revamped store but you really need to come in and see it for yourself.

God save the Queen

Remember last year...

all the problems we had with leaks in the studio space. The roof would leak while it stormed - hours after and even days after a storm.

Well this time it wasn't the roof...
What you are looking at is what happened sometime before 8:30 a.m. last Friday morning. We heard some drip drip drip when we were leaving the store Thursday night. All the appropriate people were alerted and some even came running. We left a couple of hours later thinking things were stable.

The drip pan underneath the air conditioning unit was full of rust and water and the chains that held it in place failed.

Pretty, isn't it!

We are still cleaning. All the merchandise in this area has to be inspected, cleaned and either inventoried for damage, put on our sale table or relocated to a different area.

We have a load of stuff on sale as we continue to clean and move things around. Tim Holtz signature products and Jenni Bowlin paper goods are still on sale through Saturday.

Stay cool (yes, the air is on here!)

First things first

We are having a magazine sale.

This is a continuation of the sidewalk sale that The Queen's Ink, as well as many of the merchants at Savage Mill, had this past weekend. We have past issues of many of our popular titles including Quilting Arts, Cloth Paper Scissors, Stitch, Belle Armoire, Altered Couture, and Somerset Memories on sale for just $2.00 an issue. This is truly a once in a store history sale. Just think of the collage possibilities!!!!
