Thanks to everyone for their business and patience this past month as we have undergone several projects. We have filled the framing clerk position and would like to welcome Sadie to our workforce! Upcoming events for the month of April are:

  • April 1st. Tatting Day. We always enjoy seeing these projects come into our shop.
  • April 13th is Scrabble Day. This day celebrates the classic board game Scrabble. A fun idea: glue Scrabble tiles to your scrabble board using the names in your family or a favorite quote or saying and frame it up. 
  • If you're not too tired of Easter candy, National Jelly Bean Day is April 22nd.
  • April 28th, Astronomy Day, is a day, or night, to look up at the stars. This holiday was created to teach the public about stars and the wonders of the universe.

Our Canvas Section Has Moved



We would like to let our customers know we still sell blank stretched canvas. Due to a recent accident our canvas section is no longer by the other art supplies. Our canvas is now located in the middle of our gift shop just west of our art supplies. If you have any trouble be sure to ask one of our staff for help. Thank you for your patience as we work on cleaning and rebuilding the former area.

View Custom Framing Materials

We received a suggestion from one of our customers to display our custom frame mouldings and mat boards on our blog so everyone could get a little preview before they came in. I thought it was a great idea. You can view our custom frame mouldings and Artique mat colors at Larson Juhl as well as our Bainbridge mat colors at Nielsen Bainbridge. These sites also offer great framing ideas and suggestions, so feel free to take a look. We still carry Crescent mats. However, Crescent has recently changed their distributor making it difficult for us to provide these mats as readily. I have posted the links below as well as to the right under "Custom Framing Materials" - Kathryn
