I can't wait to go check them out!!!

That's great! I also discovered a place by accident when I went there to get my sewing machine seen to last weekend. Discovered they also have a reasonable range of scrapbooking stuff, stamps, inks, embossing powder etc. I've bought from them on Trade Me (our version of Ebay) before but didn't realise where they were. It's a 30 min drive from my part of town but at least still doable.

I would probably go a little crazy if I had a new scrapbook store near me!

An LSS! In this day and age that’s a rare find. Don’t you love when things like that happen? Let us know how it is.

 And lo, the clouds parted, and light shone all around. And the glory of the LSS was revealed. And LisaDV saw that it was good. |

So lucky!!! I am jealous. I'm off to Hobbycraft this morning but it's like a super budget version of Michaels/Joanns and just not that good  anniefb yes please, tell us where it is! I can visit next time I'm home. My friend mentioned there was a shop in a lady's house somewhere around Mt Wellington way but we never got around to visiting last time I was over. |

It’s in Mt Wellington and is called The Ribbon Rose/MemoryCrafts. I think the one you’re thinking of is Scrapoholics which was in Ellerslie but is now closing. Sign of the times! |

So very excited for you. Please let us know how it was once you visit. I found a scrapbook store of sorts online that is not terribly far away. It looks like it’s more a card making store but I’ll take it. I am hoping to go this week.

I went in today!! Of course I decided to run errands today i stead of Monday when I’d have to rush to get finished by dentist appt times. grammadee, I signed up for a crop in March. lisacharlotte, as I was breaking my February freeze putting things in my basket, I kept telling myself “I have to buy, I don’t want them to close.” 😂 |

  They had a huge selection of stamps and dies. A large assortment of Christmas related items, thinking 2ps card exchange. They had some new and some old collection kits (fpd atwell which I may have to get). Lots of single sheets. Simple stories, echo park, carta bella, photoplay, kaiser crafts. A line I wasn’t familiar with and have already forgotten the name. I picked up some nuvo drops and thought of grammadee while I did. I got 2 sheets of photoplay fish paper that I saw mikklynn use the other day. Then I picked up a cherry lynn design die that had fish, a fishing pole and other fish items in the set, some single sheets of pp and one baseball small collection kit since that 4’ stack of paper in my room was lonely 😉, and a hero arts rooster/chicken layered stamp set. The angels were definitely singing! I’m so excited! |

That looks like a ginormous store! So glad you are "helping them stay in business", LisaDV, and that you have signed up for the crop. The angels are indeed singing! |

You do your part to keep them around! |

Yay for you LisaDV !!! ETA: I hadn't refreshed the page when I posted. My jaw just dropped. You have been missing out on shopping there?!!!! I am soooo really jealous now! It looks like a fabulous store! I feel like a school kid, where one kid just got a new toy and the rest of us are just standing there wishing we had one too.  |

I noticed a scrapbook store listing on google last month that's in the town I do my shopping in. I hadn't seen this place previously. I drove by the location and couldn't see it. I thought it's probably listed from days of yore and is no longer there. Today, I was searching crops and it came up again with an open until 6pm on the listing. So I called. They opened last April. I can't wait to go check them out!!! What an awesome find. Where is this store? I love a road trip! 😀 |
