Pebbles in my Pocket
1132 State Street
(across from University Mall, next to Arby’s)
Orem, Utah

Brenda Birrell sold the Pebbles paper line to American Crafts quite some time ago, but kept her store going. In January 2019 she sold her store to the owners of Echo Park.

The store has been completely remodeled with lots of great light and lots of product - full lines of Echo Park and Carta Bella, of course, but also Doodlebug, Bazzill cardstock, and American Crafts. Along with scrapbook lines, Pebbles in my Pocket also has a great selection of paper crafts, gifts, and party goods. It’s really an awesome store.

COLORADO:

Just a little update.. I checked out Who Gives a Scrap in Ft. Collins over the weekend. It's like a used craft store.. much more than scrapping stuff. I believe it is all for profit. You walk in and it is overwhelming.. stuff everywhere.. anything remotely crafty. Super cheap.. most everything is used. I didn't find much this time but I am sure day to day it changes. They did have a table that was full of paper stuff.. fill a bag for a $1. The best thing I found was about 20 of those templates.. Design with a View? I think is the name. Popular about 15 years ago, I would guess. I figure I couldn't go wrong with $1 for all of them. Plus a few odds and ends. I did find some staples for my Fastenator (is that spelled right?) the big pink stapler. Found a few new packages for .50 cents. I still use mine on occasion.

I wouldn't drive from north Denver to Ft. Collins again just to go to that store, but if I was in the area I would stop. I also stopped on the way home, Artsy.. and as last time I was there, beautiful paper.. so picked a few things there. So not a total bust but a good morning just messing around.

I was just at their new location in CoSprings a week or two ago. It seems like their prices are higher now than they were at the old location. I did pick up some thread for .50 a spool, though.

That would probably be too current for this store... I rarely see anything from name brand designers.  Mostly off brands from 2002.  

msliz- This is an awesome list! Thanks for doing this. I would love to go to an lss near me. Thanks to you all, I do see some here on this thread. I do miss them!

Just saw a post from Hearts & Crafts in Covina that they will be closing nerd month. She says she will be going online but her physical store will be closing. So sad to see another store go.

Yes, I got the email also. I’ve shopped with them since before their old store in downtown Covina had a fire. I will admit not getting over there very often anymore. I hope they do well with their online offerings. 

msliz, there is a new store to add to the list — Frank Garcia Studio in Upland. He designs for Prima and a has pretty little shop with lots of newer lines, not just Prima. The classes look fun, and they have crops too. Although the work tables are closed for now, I have ordered online and picked up during the shutdown. Yay for a new LSS!

Washington - 3 Craft Chicks in Airway Heights/Spokane

This store is awesome. Run by a family with the last name Craft (Mom and 2 daughters) Small, but packed. They have lots of new stuff and do great Retreats at a nearby hotel. I live 2 hours away, but have to stop every time we drive to Spokane because you just can't explain the thrill of being in a real Scrapbook Store!

Impress Cards and Crafts (formerly Impress Rubber Stamp) has closed both locations. They are now online only. I’m very sad about it. I used to shop the Tukwila store whenever we were in town. It was such an inspiring place to visit.

To add to the Colorado list:

Scrap2It in Fort Collins is a nice store. The owner was really friendly.

Please add Ben Franklin in Redmond, WA to your list. They are still open and going strong.
