From little things big things grow!!!!!!

From little things big things grow!!!!  Share our journey and see how A Place to Create is coming to life. From bare walls and floors, add a little carpet, some paint, some design features that had the boys up the ladders (sorry boys), build a wall, add some shelves and a rack or two a counter and our shop is coming together. The stock started arriving last week with the first 7 boxes, then daily from then on with 19 boxes of Kaisercraft wood arriving yesterday.  The back wall is covered with 120 different designs of gold and silver craft stickers, a huge range of chipboard arrived today and cardstock will arrive later in the week.  What a time to shop with complete ranges of all the Kaisercraft papers and embellishments, all the different colours of paints, rhinestones and pearls, the full sets of rub ons large and small and the largest range of Kaisercraft wood you could wish for- be quick to get the best picks of the complete ranges.

Don't forget we open this Saturday 21st August with our Grand Opening Sunday 22nd August from 10 -3.

 See you all soon,

Regards Gayle & A Place to Create Team

You can't keep a lid on Creativity!!!

The stock has not finished being racked up, the doors are not open yet - BUT you can't keep a lid on creativity.  Can you believe it a creative staff member has already started to make my very first samples for A Place to Create.  The Large Desk Organiser, a page layout and a set of cards have all been created using the new paper range 'Hippy Girl' from Kaisercraft.  Visit the store from Saturday the 21st of August to be inspired with all the new stock lines, samples, ideas and creativity.
