Greetings Everyone!! Can you belive that we are only 14 days away from Christmas. I've been thinking that I should get some shopping done. Where's that phone?? hee hee
The time has gone quickly this year and we are so looking forward to the start of a fresh new year. 2009 has proven to be a very challenging year for us here at the shop. We hope that the year 2010 proves to be a year of renewal and growth. The economy will undoubtedly need to help all of us out but we just need to stay as positive as possible to bring with it positive results. Stay tuned!!
A reminder that our Issaquah Holiday Open House is this coming Sunday, 13 Dec, beginning at 12:00 noon. Our featured guest is Dave Breatheur owner of Memeory Box. He's got a demo planned from noon to 2:00 pm so be sure to stop in early. We'll have some holiday treats as well. All Memory Box products, including paper, are 25% off. All Cricut cartridges will be a flat $35.00 also. Should be fun so do stop in. (In the event of snow, please call ahead to make sure we are able to open)
While you are there, it will be an opportunity to view the Artist's Village on display at the shop. It is absolutely beautiful and the photos that follow do not do it justice at all. It was designed and built by a group referred to as the Escape Artists whose names are all listed by the display. This display, in itself, is worth the trip. It will hopefully be displayed in West Seattle early in 2010. It is georgeous and you can believe that we are very honored to have the opportunity to display this village. It'll be there through the year so, please, stop in to see just what I mean. Here are a handful of photos.
This view is at floor level. Again, the photos do not do the display justice. Our on site photographer, Kathy Fox, has done a wonderful job with the photos but seeing this display is worth the trip in.
Here is a wider view of the village. When displayed, an acrylic protective siding surrounds the village. We removed it for these photos.
Here is a top view of the village. I'm telling you... you just gotta see it in person. Your gonna love it. Until later everyone.... hugs to all - Doris
