With customers lined up at our doors to get in for the Consignment Sale on the 1st, March definitely started off as a month of madness! The Consignment Sale was a huge success- thank you to all of the consignees that participated, and to everyone who came out to shop all of the excellent deals available on new and lightly used scrapbook supplies! If you missed this event, don’t worry, we will be holding another Consignment Sale in July, so be sure to check the calendar and newsletter in a couple of months for additional details.
