11th Birthday SALE - Feb.11-14


What is that saying...?  Time flies when you are having fun.  Ain't that the truth.

It has been 11 INCREDIBLE years of Paper Pickle goodness.  I have met the most amazing, interesting and TALENTED people over the past 11 years.  I love that you want to share your love of the hobby with little ol' me.  Think back 11 years to when we first met....so many of you have become friends (and I think that is the sweetest part of sharing this shop with you ♥).  I always knew I wanted to own my own store but some rewards such as this (our friendship!) cannot be estimated, quantified or projected on the spreadsheets I keep.  To quote Elton John's song Mona Lisa's and Mad Hatters "and I thank the Lord for the people I have found".  Now did I find you or did YOU find me?  Who cares!  We've got each other....

Ahhh....♥.  Now aren't I in the lovey dovey mood.  I guess that's what you get when you combine our BIRTHDAY sale AND Valentine's Day!  Let's keep this love fest going all week long!  Oh but don't come in 'til WEDNESDAY, k?  (Store Hours - Wed-Fri 10am-5pm, Sat 10am-3pm).  Ha.

Oh.  I also hear that Homebaked Kitchen (aka little sis) wants to get in on the FUN!  All of Jen's adorable aprons, towels, coasters, etc will be 25% off as well!  All baking is regular price but don't wait til Saturday to pick up a special Valentine treat!  Just have a look at these pieces of art.  I sure hope I get ANY one dozen of these for Valentine's Day!

It's the MOST wonderful time of the YEAR!

Anyone who stops by my house this weekend, will find this sign on my door.  In other words, I will not be leaving the house and I couldn't be happier.

So many people complain this time of the year that there is NOTHING to do.  Honestly, I embrace and LOVE it for that very reason.  There are no flower beds and weeds calling my name.  There is no grass to cut.  There are no impromptu BBQs.  That means there is only ONE thing that can really be done this time of the year....CRAFTING and lounging around the house!

Last weekend I gathered my crafting supplies on Saturday and hoped to get to a few Valentine's cards that I was designing for the store and for The Purple Pansy Flower Boutique.  That sweet, sweet snow on Sunday was a sign from God to not leave the house.  The only thing that could be done (after tidying the house of course!) was to focus on card making.  I got a ton done and I did not feel guilty in the least.  Why is it that we feel guilty when we indulge in things that make us happy?  I've got to stop that.  Crafting makes me happy.  Crafting makes me feel alive.

I encourage you to spend the weekend in hibernation mode.  Make the MOST of this time of the year!  It is good for the soul (especially when you do not have all these other jobs calling your name).

Ok.  Does this image not make you happy?  We have some serious cuteness going on at The Pickle...just in time for Valentine's Day.  Check out some of the product we have available from Pebbles called "We Go Together".


12x12 paper which can be cut into 12 to make
only THE simplest AND cutest Valentines ever
 If you come into the store or visit The Purple Pansy in Chatham, you will see some of the most adorable (and simple!) cards I made using the paper above.  They were so easy but perfect for a fun little craft.

Coordinating Stickers
Heart confetti great for shaker cards,
party decorations, accents, etc

Wonderful epoxy hearts stickers perfect to have on hand
for any upcoming project

Lots of great glitter sticker hearts

New Dies from Spellbinders & Memory Box
Of course we have brought in some great dies for Valentine's Day.  Have a look at a few of the Valentine themed dies that have just arrived!  There are MANY new dies in various themes but I will save those for another post!

Yes.  Spellbinders.  These were too adorable to pass up!

Penelope Heart is BACK in stock!
This is the stitched square die I used on one of my cards recently.
It is now back in stock!  It is SO versatile.

I'll be in the store today.  Stop in and say hi or bring in your show and tell.  I'd love to see what you are working on!  And just a reminder that tonight (Thursday) we have my card class!  I am looking forward to it.
