Organized, at last!

Heidi Swapp Acrylic Paint - BettyI finally have everything organized and put away from CHA Summer - just in time for the next shipments to begin arriving! My husband and I put up slatwall panels (It was harder than I thought it would be - those things are HEAVY!). I used slatwall shelf brackets to hang my new Cropper Hopper 12x12 Hanging Files. And in them? As much paper as we could safely stuff. About 150 sheets in each.

The paper is easy to find, doesn't get bent, and is safe from light and dust. I put the sheets upside down, so I can see the names and SKUs (sorted by SKU). I managed to get all the paper into a nice spot this way. Now, I only wish I had more wall space, so I could store ALL my scrapbook paper this way!

Then, I hung up all the beautiful new Heidi Swapp goodies I have in stock, but NOT online yet! I have had them in stock for about two weeks, so I should probably get going on that. It has been a lot of work to get the images formatted for the web - but I'm almost done.

I'm also busy adding a Gift Wrap option to the site in time for the Holiday season! I'm very excited about this - our customers will be able to buy presents at our store and ship them to family everywhere - looking beautiful! I am hoping it will be ready some time next week.

The last major thing in the works is moving the site to new shopping cart software. We are upgrading the software and will need to do a lot to get it ready and looking decent. There are quite a few reasons for this - I'll have to leave that for another day (and get working on the Heidi images!)
