Now that school is out and everyone has had a little time to adjust to kids’ summer schedules, it’s time to find some great fun summer activities for both the kids and parents to enjoy all summer long! Scrap Paper Scizzors has a variety of classes and crops to keep moms busy and cool throughout the scorching hot summer days, as well as exciting projects for the kids at our Summer Kids’ Craft Camp. Check out all of our class offerings and details below, or click on our calendar tab for additional class and crop details and pricing.
NEWS
I want to give everyone a bit of a heads up on store hours for July. I have been so fortunate as to have been called for jury duty for the month of July (Aren’t I just so lucky!) and therefore may have to be closed a day here or there if I am called in. Unfortunately I will only know a day ahead if I am going to have to go in, so I will be posting info on the calendar if I am going to have to be closed for part of the day. Even on days that I may be called for jury service, I will still come in afterward and be open in the evenings. We have been told that most people serve less than 4 days average, so hopefully this will only affect the store for about 3-4 days throughout the entire month, and whenever possible, I will have one of the other girls covering for me for as many hours as possible, but just in case I am unable to get coverage for the day, I will be closed on those mornings and afternoons, but open in the evening. Just to be on the safe side, please check the calendar before you come out to be sure we are going to be here. Unless otherwise posted on the calendar, we will be open regular hours.
It’s almost that time of year again for our Summer Consignment Sale, so start sorting through your old scrapbook supplies now to decide what goes and what stays! It’s a great way to get rid of your old stuff you don’t use anymore and earn money to buy all new stuff! Our next Consignment Sale will be held on Saturday July 24th from 11am-8pm. If you are interested in selling items in the sale, please check out the calendar for details on pricing and packaging items and drop-off dates. But whether you sell anything in the Consignment Sale or not, definitely mark this date on your calendar to come out and shop to get fabulous deals on new and gently used scrapbooking supplies!
