I'm really excited for you! I have been missing my LSS so bad. I got up early and drove a couple of hours to my closest A's yesterday. I spent almost 3 hours in there and came home with lots of goodies. I have decided not to wait so long to go again. |

I really wish we had a closer one my less closed last year and I just found a really tiny one close by but it just doesn't have that much. When I do get to go I'm almost overwhelmed trying to find everything that I had wanted because I find new stuff that I want lol

I just got to visit A's again yesterday. I've been there three times now, and I love it each and every time! I go to the one in Katy, Texas. I'm lucky to have one relatively close to home, but the problem is that I don't spend much time at home these days--I go to college 4 hours away, in Dallas, which sadly has no A's (yet!). So when I do go home (and have a chance to drive an hour to get to it) I always try to visit A's. I got a new stamp set on my most recent visit and I can't wait to use it! |

I went to A's in between appointments today and I'm glad that I had a time limit within the store (25 minutes). I only wanted to pick up some patterned paper, but walked out with so much more. I can just image what I would have walked out with if I had more time. |

I'm visiting Austin with my family this weekend and have informed them already that a visit to Archiver's is on the list! I've never been, so I'm so excited! Hopefully we can find something for them to do nearby - they're all boys and SO don't care about scrapbooking. | |

I love the one in Shipshe! It is kind of small but packed with good stuff! She gets new things every week. |

it's right off of sr 15, just past the parmore golf course, you have to turn onto a side road but you can see the sign from 15 if you look closely lol. I forget the name of the store but its right across from a gas station on the same side of the road of the golf course |

I live in WI but was at The Scrapyard in June and thought it really was a nice store. Wish I had one like that near my home. I was in Shipshewana on a quilting trip and was at The Davis Mercantile to go to Lolly's which was truly amazing! Finding The Scrapyard was an added bonus! | |

the one in New Paris is not very big, I stopped at the one in shipshe today on my way home from getting my hair done in Lagrange. yes I drive a bit to get my hair done lol but my ex-sister-in-law is the best at coloring my gray lol. I was impressed with the Scrapyard it was much bigger than I thought it would be the only problem was I went without my list and got highly distracted with all my choices haha |

tinkgumby, if you are going to the one in Cedar Park, there is a movie theater right next to the Archivers... and lots of other shops too. I'm sure the boys could find something to do nearby. |
