The Creating Place Blg

Working towards a new home...

We at the Creating Place have been BUSY!!!

Jen has been away, renewing her spirits and creative self, strengthening those family and friend bonds in the meantime whilst Anji and Amy along with several other cohort (family

from both sides in from out-of-town and friends, husbands who are amazing!!) have been cleaning, moving saleswomen and packers galore--not to mention painters, floor installers, dusters, slat wall hangers and light bulb expert changers--all to help you discover a new, beautiful home for your creative needs!!

We are already thrilled and loving the space and can't wait for all the rest of the work to be complete so you can come in and "ohh" and "ahhh" over our new home and all the work that has been put into the new Creating Place!!  We are still shooting towards the 1st of May as a target date and are working furiously towards meeting that goal, so keep your fingers crossed, eyes and ears open for our announcement to come celebrate with us--hopefully your gonna love it as much as we do!!  Thanks for all your patience during this month as we have packed stuff up, had odd hours and not been as available as previously--we promise--it will all be worth it!!

Sincerely-- The New Brighter Beautiful Creating Place

Yes, The Creating Place is MOVING! Starting in May we will be located in the Senate Building at 175 South Franklin. We are on the ground floor, third store on the left.

Cash or checks accepted on garage sale items.

Fun First Friday

First Friday - April 4th couldn't have been better. The weather was nice. Creativity was in the air. Juneauites were out and about. What made First Friday so much fun you might be asking, well, the array of Cooky crafts, the handmade sweet little cupcakes, the window models causing a stir on the street, and most of all the Craft Addicts themselves. They are a very talented and fun group of Alaskan crafters always being creative. If you missed First Friday don't fret the Craft Addicts have a fine selection of handmade crafts that will be available at the Creating Place through May

Scrap it!

Here are the layouts we did for the March Saturday Scrap class...

The theme for this month's sketch is: photos! Lots of photos. We used one large (5x7) photo and 12(approx. 2x2) small photos. Alter the sketch to fit more journaling. Whether it's lots of pictures or lots of journaling...the more the better! Look for info on the next Saturday Scrap class where YOU can complete [at least] 3 two-page layouts. Scrap it!
