Christmas Wreath Classes

CHRISTMAS WREATH – 2 Weeks - **Amended**
Anyone interested in attending the Christmas Wreath Classes will need to contact Janet to confirm your booking. This has been a very popular class, so there are limited kits available and once they are gone that's it for this year!  The price of the class includes the full Kit, so there's nothing extra to outlay.  Once you've booked you can make a spot at home to display your lovely wreath once finished!  As this class runs over 2 weeks, you'll have 'homework"
for the 2nd class - which isn't really all that bad.  Here is a sneak peek of the finished product!
Call into Scrapville for a closer look at the beautifully crafted wreath in full detail!

Class dates are Thursday 15th November at 7pm, and Saturday 24th November at 2.30pm.
The 2nd weeks classes will be the FOLLOWING Thursday and Saturday.

Bookings essential, don't forget to let Janet know.

cheers

NOVEMBER NEWSLETTER

Hello Everyone, and welcome to the November Newsletter. Before we know it you’ll be celebrating the New Year and packing away your Christmas Trees! I’m sure everyone is wondering where the time has gone. Another time defining moment will see Scrapville entering into a 4th year Next Month. In times of struggle for retail businesses alike it has been quite a journey, and I have learnt much along the way. I hope new and exciting plans for 2013 will help us continue to grow our creativity and our passion. I would like to think that we will also endure many more pleasant and fulfilling days to come, when you stop by once again and we get catch up. Helping you find the inspiration you desire to create those special projects is also very rewarding for us at Scrapville, so I thank you for your support, and hope to see you again soon.
