Treasury of Memories

We've got another deal for you!

And it's a doozy!

All 8 1/2 x 11 paper...and I mean ALL 8 1/2 X 11 paper...
like shimmer paper, vellum, cardstock...ALL OF IT...

is now 40 sheets for five bucks.
Five buckolas!  Seriously.
That's like .12 a sheet.  (Just about 70% off...sweet, huh?)
Just thought I'd pass that along. :)

Oh.
And a little public service announcement for the people who bought the 25 Days of Christmas Kit:

clearing throat, stepping on soapbox, picking up mike...
Oops.
We inadvertently left out a piece of Making Memories Christmas paper.
If you purchased that beautiful kit, we have the paper here in the store waiting for you.
Pop on in now through Saturday, and we would love to give it to you!

Thanks ladies! --Julie

P.S. We were blown away by the response to the Garage Sale! Looking forward to a hugely popular event next Saturday, October 17th, 9am-3pm! (Oh and vendors, your labels are ready...so come on in!)

 

50% off....AND....a GARAGE SALE too!

EVERYTHING is now 50% off. Everything. Seriously.

That includes the punches, stamp pads, cardstock, albums, ribbon and did I mention...everything? (Did you know there are even a few Epic machines still floating around?)

And our days (as a retail store*) are dwindling...our last day will be this Saturday, October 10th. This has gone much faster than we expected! So come on in and visit us again! (*We will continue to offer vinyl lettering and kits via our blog.)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Since the closing sale has gone so well, we have the time and space to host our popular PAPERCRAFTING GARAGE SALE! We've had more requests this time than any other, so this is likely to be bigger and better than ever before...and we didn't think that was possible!

This is an AMAZING event and if you've not yet joined in the fun, this is the time to do it! You'll find such amazing deals...savings you seriously would not believe!  Be sure to bring cash or your credit card (woo hoo, we can do credit cards this year!). The event will begin at 9am...

VENDORS:
Here's how it will work for vendors (that could be YOU!). Call and register...we'll print out lots of price tags with your ID number on them. Sort your craft supplies. Price your products. Set up on Saturday, October 17th, 7-8am. (Vendors start selling to each other between 8-9am). Sell all sorts of your "loved but no longer using" goodies. Then, you'll receive 75% of your tally in CASH. Fun, right? (Prior garage sales, you paid a table fee and then earned a gift certificate to the store.) We take care of the tables, the checking out, the tallying, etc...all you need to do is bring your goodies and set them up...you don't even need to hang around!

The event will only be open to 35 vendors...so call today to sign up at 360.715.3125.

We'd love to see YOU soon!

One more little tidbit...a little birdy told me that there is perhaps the possibility of a garage sale.  Stay tuned to the blog for details...

Some sneak peeks for you!

Just so you don't come in tomorrow and go...WAAAAAAH!
(Like in shock, not crying)...
I thought I'd give you a few little sneak peeks.  There's a TON of great deals to be had.
I have to warn you about the signs. 
They are everywhere. 
Everything (yes, everything) is at least 20% off.
And then there are these interesting little pockets of 50% off.
Stuff like canvas:

 All canvas is 50% off.  It's true.  The great big huge ones...and the little teeny tiny ones.
And get this, we have two new sizes.  We have 9x12 and 11x14.  Isn't that cool?
Ok...more 50% off stuff.
How bout marbles?

 And what about...say...some American Crafts paper?  (Sorry, not the brand new Christmas line...that's 20% off though!)  How about beautiful goodies like these?

 There's something like 6 big ole racks of beautiful American Crafts paper (regular price .79/sheet)...and it's 50% off!  Gorgeous patterns, scalloped edges...you have to check it out!

And what if I told you some things were 70% off??

 There's a WHOLE section of goodies that are red-lined baby.  And that's 70% off the regular price! 
Stuff like Quickutz dies...(can you believe it?!)

 All Quickutz dies are 70% off!  (Just for clarification...not Silhouette products.)

So there you go...just a few little sneak peeks...hope you can join us tomorrow.  :)  We open at 10, and will close at 7.  There's a couple of things that are different from the usual.  Because it is a closing sale, there's no returns, refunds or exchanges...all sales are final.  So no buyer's remorse allowed! :)
And we will gladly take Visa, MasterCard, Discover and cashola.  So sorry...but no checks.  Thanks so much for your understanding...
See you there!

one more Tuesday card post...

You know, Elizabeth & I have had this little joke about doing the Tuesday Cards blog post.
Because really...at the end of the day...there's only so many different ways to say "Look at these pretty cards...3 for $5...bring your basic supplies..."
So I turned it into this challenge. 
I was determined to make the Tuesday card post exciting.  Adventurous. 
Fabulously funny and original...each and every week! :)
I used funny vintage lady pictures.
I wrote an ode.
I was going to do the next one in French.  Seriously.
Just to shake things up.

And then things went and got really shaken up.  In a completely different way.
So I know that we had said we were having Tuesday cards this Tuesday, the 22nd. 
But things are going to be a little bit crazy here this Tuesday, what with it being the first day of the closing sale and all...and we really want our last Tuesday card class to be fun (sniff) and not all zany and insanely nuts.
So.
Tuesday cards...the last one...will be September 29th. 

Miss Teresa made these beautiful Christmas cards using the Making Memories Mistletoe line.
(And here's where you can pretend I'm typing in French or use your best French accent to read it)...
Join her on Tuesday, September 29th...at 1 or 6pm (see voo play note the time change!)
Just bring sanc (five) dollars to make twa (three) cards.
And your basic supplies.
And your kleenex.
We would amor (love) to see you.

A new chapter...

Dear Friend:

 

We have enjoyed TWELVE years of creativity with our community and are so incredibly thankful for the fun times and friendship we have shared!  But, it is time for our next chapter…and we want you to be among the first to know that Treasury of Memories will be closing.

 

While this has been an incredibly emotional decision, it is the right thing for my family. Our young children, Thomas and Jackson, are growing up so quickly and I want to share every wonderful moment with them. 

 

We feel so blessed to have played such an active role in our community and the lives of our customers.  Celebrating your joys and helping you capture your special memories has been incredibly rewarding.

 

Together, we have been recognized in the community for supporting local non-profit organizations. In the past five years, Treasury of Memories and its customers have raised over $50,000 for Children’s Hospital. (Isn’t that awesome!) And YOU helped us to become recognized nationally as a leading paper crafting store in the industry! Thank you!

 

As our final celebration, we will be hosting a huge sale kicking off this week.  Please join us for our STORE CLOSING SALE beginning Tuesday, September 22nd. To prepare for this closing sale, our store will be closed Sunday, September 20^th and Monday, September 21^st. 

 

We will be liquidating our entire stock of scrapbooking supplies, stamping supplies, photo décor supplies, canvas, and much more! In addition to the complete merchandise liquidation, paper racks, counters, shelving, and store supplies will be for sale. EVERYTHING WILL GO!

 

This means AMAZING savings for you. Our store is stocked with brand new merchandise…including lots of great products for the upcoming holiday seasons!

 

We are extending this special invitation to our local customers and friends to come in beginning promptly at 10:00am on Tuesday, September 22nd to shop this sale early prior to the public announcement. Enjoy savings of 20-70% off today! EVERY SINGLE ITEM in the store will be ON SALE!

All my best,

Elizabeth

You know how when you're laying in bed at night...

and your mind is wandering all over...
and you start thinking of random things...
like, is there milk for cereal tomorrow morning?
or, did I lock the sliding door?
or...just how many days ARE there until Halloween anyway??

Well, now you don't have to wonder any more.
 
In fact...you don't have to worry about Christmas either!
With these handy dandy little projects, you will always know.
The best part is...each one is all kitted up for you...and you can have total "how many more days" peace of mind for just $5!

It's ok.  No need to thank me. ;)
