Boy It's Been Hot!

And the Crafting Cottage has been getting some"HOT" new products in to share with you soon. From papers, stamps, new die-cuts, kits, you name it. Georgia and I have been busy entering items and getting them ready for the shelves.

Georgiana and I have been busy getting ready for our special announcement. But it looks like it won't be until next week that we can let the excitement out of the bag. I know, I know, I keep saying it is coming. Believe me it is hard for me not to tell you!

I am working tomorrow on some of the projects for our HOT HOLIDAY HAPPENINGS Workshop. I will post a date for the fun event as soon as I have it. We will be doing Christmas cards and Holiday themed items to give you a head start for this years celebrations. You won't want to miss it!

Cheryl returned to work today from her vacation. She and her husband had a great time. We are glad to have her back. I will get to hear more of her adventures tomorrow at work.

Happy 4th...

I hope you all enjoyed your 4th of July weekend. I traveled into Centre County, PA to spend the 4th with my family. We celebrated at my sister Susanne's home and had a really nice time. Of course there was no shortage of food. It was all delicious. Steve and I then spent the night with our son and grand-daughter and came home Sat. late afternoon.

I've been doing some planning for our Ice Cream Social at the East Corning Crafting Cottage. Remember you must pre-register. Check our website for times and dates. It's coming fast!

Real soon we should be able to announce our upcoming excitement for the Crafting Cottage. Georgiana and I have been busy trying to get things in order. Keep checking in often.

It was so nice seeing Tarren and Susan on Thursday evening. Tarren made some terrific cards using the Creative Cafe' cards and supplies. Susan was busy matching papers to cover a Bare Elements Caddy and die cutting card frames to make some cards at home. It was great visiting with you girls.

Well I've gotta go. More later.

Saturday was nice..

I spent a lovely day at The Windmill on Saturday. Our Crafting Cottage booth was quite busy. It was great seeing all of you customers and friends that I haven't seen in a while. I loved sharing our new products with you and filling you in on some exciting news that will be announced real soon. I know, I know, I really didn't tell you the news, I just got you excited that there will be news coming very soon. So everyone keep checking my blog and our website!

This Thursday between 5-8 we will be making cards from the Creative Cafe'. There is a lot of fun product to work with and the ideas are endless. The cost is $5.00. Give us a call at 936-3770 and sign up today. See you Thursday!

WOW!!!!!

Where does the time go! June is almost over. I am sorry not updating sooner. I have been really busy planning all kinds of fun events for the Crafting Cottage.

You won't want to miss HOT SUMMER FUN, the Crafting Cottage's "TWIST" on an Ice Cream Social. Join us Saturday, July 19 between 1pm and 4pm for some "HOT SUMMER FUN" at the East Corning Crafting Cottage.

Outside, under the big white tents, we will have six delicious projects for you to devour! When you are all finished creating your treats (gift tags, cards, book marks, etc.) we will have scrumptious hot fudge sundaes for your enjoyment.

Paid Pre-Registration by Tues. July 15 is a must.
Cost per person is $10.00

Keep checking in also for other events and some big news to be revealed soon. Off to work, more on the Crafting Cottage happenings tonight.

Did you miss me?

I am sorry for not getting my blog updated before today. I got so relaxed at the lake last weekend that the week flew by.

We are quite busy at The Crafting Cottage getting all settled in since my move from Market St. But you never know where you might find me......hmmm....maybe a new announcement will be coming soon. Yes, that is right, keep checking my blog for some exciting news!

I am excited to share with you some news about an Inchie's Club I am forming. Inchies are a one inch square portion of an image that is used as a focal point. They are great for making cards and trading. I have some fun ideas already planned for the club. If you are interested in joining the club you can reply back on my blog or you can email The Crafting Cottage to sign up. There will also be a sign up sheet at The Crafting Cottage. Once I get enough for the club I will contact everyone and set up a meeting so we can plan our schedule. I am thinking I will run the club twice, once during the day and once in the evening. That way if you don't like driving in the evening you won't miss out on the fun! Sign up soon for the fun!

Look N' Good

The Creative Cafe' is in the process of being set up at the East Corning Crafting Cottage and we found a perfect place for it. I have several projects lined up for our first "happy hours". Keep posted for when we are ready for action.

Basicgrey will have a new home on the sun porch also. It looks terrific! I just received my items that were on back-order. More glazed brads, buttons, and rub ons. They are beautiful!

I am in the process of planning CHRISTMAS IN JULY at The Crafting Cottage. I will have the date and info for you real soon. It will be a fun filled day of card making and creative holiday ideas. You will want to sign up early to reserve your seat

I am off Friday afternoon to the lake cottage for a few days of rest and relaxing with my hubby. (thanks to Georgiana:) I will be brainstorming some exciting events for all of you. More when I return on Sunday.

See you in East Corning...

We have been busy packing the Market St. Crafting Cottage and getting ready to set things up at the East Corning store. I am excited to get moved and get ready for a wonderful summer of crafting classes and events. Keep checking in for my schedule. As soon as I am situated I will try to get them posted for you.
I will admit I am going to miss Beth and all of the action on Market St., but it will be nice to be at the East Corning Cottage and with the rest of the Crafting Cottage Family. Well I have to get packing so I will see everyone in East Corning in a few days!
