A Little Something New!

We're trying something a little different at Once Upon A Page, and we're inviting you to come check it out! At the old store our layout was quite different than it is now. Tables were set up all day and night for croppers and paper crafters to come in and work on their projects. 


At our new location, there are a few tables in the back, but no one wants to feel excluded and tucked away.  We have now placed 2 tables in the middle of the store for you cropping conveinece. Two tables seats four guests and they are open to work at during all store hours.  Day cropping prices are $5 for the entire day and you recieve 10% while you are here working. 


We encourage you to come by and see the new layout and take advantage of being the center of the room..literally. This way you are close to the products, and have all the samples on the walls to use as inspiration. Plus, a member of our friendly staff will be there at all times to answer questions or help you along the way.

We hope you like the new look...we sure do!

Halloween Projects: Which will you be making this year?

Wreaths, Flowers, and Pails...Oh My!

Werewolves are preparing to howl, witches are mixing their Hallow's Eve brew, Monsters are creeping out from beneath beds, and Once Upon A Page is crafting up a Halloween storm!

What better holiday than Halloween, to go CRAZY with paper projects.  We have all the 12x12 paper, stickers, and embellishments you will need to spice up your family and friend's trick-or-treatin' spirit.

1.  This decorative wreath is covered completely in paper. Take a closer look and spot the ghoulish skulls lurking within the paper folds.












2.  Gardening is never out of season when your flowers bloom from paper.  Decorate your home or spooky spirit party with these fun flowers on a stick.












3. Chipboard books are always a great way to remember any holiday.  This year, don't forget to take lotsof pics of your kids in their costumes rolling around in their Swiss bank accounts of candy.  Spell words like Spooky, Creepy, October, Halloween, Trick, Treat, or any other festive word you can come up with.







4. Whether they are dressing up as a princess or pirate, a cat or cowboy, a witch or wizard, Halloween frames are a fun and festive way to preserve that cute costume forever. 












5.  Don't send your kids out on the town with just ANY trick-or-treat basket this year.  Make your little ones stand out with a hand made candy pail that can hold 1 gallon of candy! Not that we condone that :)  We're just saying...it could.
