Teachers Evening Postponed, Workshop Updates and New Producs

Hi all,

It has been a hectic week!

First of all after listening to our teachers in Kerry who are on the countdown to there summer holidays we have decided to postpone the open evening until the end of summer. I'm sure our teachers have sangria and sun on their mind rather than school paints and stickers!!! We have stocked the shop up this week with school supplies and teacher tools and also have some catalogues available for any teacher who is planning ahead. Just contact the shop and we will be happy to send them out.

This Saturday we will have a number of exciting children's workshops on including scrapbooking, glass painting and card making. Please phone the shop to put your chil'd name down to avoid disappointment as you know how busy the classes have been!! I will be putting up some of the pics from previous classes up this week.

Some exciting new products arrived this week for our scrappers and card makers.

They included the amazing Bind-It-All Machine and all the accessories to make your own beautiful albums and crafts.

The Bind-It-All Machine is the industry's newest and most innovative tool! The Bind-it-All is the one and only dual action machine that will punch and bind allowing you to create your own books, journals, calendars, and craft projects of any size! Be sure to check out our accessories that work hand-in-hand with this wonderful tool!

The New Dreamkuts Arrived Today!!!

This tool is the perfect page cutter! The Dreamkuts has two slots that allow you to cut over 100 different page sizes. The back slot is adjustable (depending on the size of your paper) and will make one center cut. The front slot (fixed at 12") will cut your paper into thirds! *Note: The Dreamkuts will cut up to one or two sheets of cardstock at a time. It will NOT cut chipboard.

They will be going up on the website over the next day or two and for more information visit http://www.binditall.com/. We have limited stock on both machines so first come first served and all that. Don't forget to ask for a free demonstration in store on any of our products.

I'll be in touch at the end of the week with some more product and workshop updates.

In the meantime pop in and and say hello and have a goo at the gorgeous bits and bobs we have got in for you over the last week.
