Happenings at A Place in Time on June 8th, 2012

Good Morning Everyone,

How many of you know what happened on June 6th that made it a significant date in American history. For fun, I asked the people who came in the store. To my complete surprise less than 20% knew the correct answer. Guess that's a sign that I really am getting old. Ha!

Sunday, June 10th - Craft Snacks and Tidbits Day. 1:00 - 4:00pm. It's Free and you don't need to bring any tools with you. If you haven't been to one, I know you will enjoy the time spent making the project Priscilla has created for you. This Sunday, the project will be a Father's Day Accordion Pocket Book.

Monday, June 11th - King Kamehameha Day is a holiday and we will be open as usual. We will celebrate by having several items on sale and Priscilla will be having a "Craft Snacks and Tidbits" session (1:00 - 4:00pm). You will make a Father's Day Accordion Pocket Book - so if you missed it on Sunday you can make it today. Dad will love it.

The sale will include selected stencils at a whopping 60% off. Did you ever see a sale where you can buy 1 and get 2 for free (equal or lesser value of the same brand)? Come in and take your choice of Accent Depot "Brads", Karen Foster "Brad Bars", Doodlebug "Word Tags", and Doodlebug "Sequins".

Our newest stencil design is a "Geisha Girl". Art has done an outstanding job in creating a stencil that you will have a lot of fun with. There is an extra bonus also. Art has created a package of "Masks" that you can use with the "Geisha Girl" to aide in the separation of colors and techniques. Once again, we asked several people to "volunteer" and make samples for our "Introducing" board. No one knew what style the other volunteer was doing, so we have a variety of cards that show how versatile this stencil can be. I tried capturing their "look", but my photo isn't like seeing them in real life. So, come into the store and take a look. As a special offer, you can buy either the "Geisha Girl" and/or the "Mask" set at a 10% discount. If you have our Discount Card, I'll give you an additional 10% off. This pricing will be good from today (Friday) through Monday, June 11th. My thanks to all of the volunteers - they did an outstanding job.

"Geisha Girl"
Saturday, June 30th - 4:00 - 6:00pm...... Barbecue Recipe Exchange.... This is a fun class that Priscilla has done several times and the ladies really enjoy it. You will be making a Book to hold 6" x 6" cards of  everyone's  favorite Barbecue Recipe. Also, you will be asked to bring "samples" of you recipe for a "pot luck" meal after the class. Yum.... I guarantee this is a lot of fun and I get a taste also.This class usually fills up fast, so if your interested, please give me a call. More details on the class will follow in the next Blog.

All of you have been asking when Priscilla will be bringing in more of the "Memory Box Dies". Well, they are on their way. They are all "brand new" to our store and you have 16 designs to choose from. I guarantee you will like them.  If you want, you may come into the store and review the designs and pre-order those that you want. The Memory Box Dies are extremely popular and "move" fast. So, please come in and select what you want before they sell out.

One last thing........ we will be closed Wednesday,  July 4th

See you tomorrow,

Bill
