We'll be giving out numbers as you walk in the door. These numbers represent who gets to select their gift set(s) first. (First one in the door gets the first number, and so on.) You may want to get here early...last year we had a line outside the door 45 minutes before we opened!!

Plus, we'll be having a huge SALE! Stay tuned for more info...

Forever Love by Heidi Grace

For all you Heidi Grace fans out there...I am pleased to introduce the Forever Love Collection.

You may or may not know that Fiskars will no longer carry the Heidi Grace line. We're not sure what that means for her collections. Sadly, this may be the last one you see.

Personally, I love Heidi Grace and will miss her designs. Her style is very elegant with a hint of fun. We'll keep you updated...
