So anybody who knows me is well aware of my serious addiction…CRAFTING! Drop me off at Michael’s with some coupons and a credit card and you don’t need to worry about picking me up until closing time! So when I see my customers setting up their beautiful decorations for their showers and parties, I have […]

It’s Time To Celebrate YOU!
Anybody who has had children will at some point find themselves saying “I can’t believe how fast they’ve grown up!” Well, that is exactly how I am feeling right now about MY “baby.” I can’t believe that The Girl Cave just turned 4 this month!

Some people would pick Christmas for their favorite day of the year, some may choose Thanksgiving or a special anniversary, but for me…it’s SCRAPBOOK EXPO DAY! Once a year I shop with reckless abandonment up and down aisle after glorious aisle of crafting product booths. Beautiful papers, vibrant colored markers and inks, sparkle and bling […]

We Promise…They are REAL!
Recently I was at a friend’s book signing and bumped into one of my all-time favorite customers.

Let’s Recapture Our Youth!
Lately I’ve been hearing a lot of talk about the therapeutic benefits of adult coloring books. Have you heard about this? The repetitive, rhythmic, act of coloring is supposed to be very calming and a great way to relieve stress. So that has me thinking…should I have a grown-up coloring night at The Girl Cave? […]

They Cleaned Up Nicely!
Three years ago, The Girl Cave was newly opened and just starting to gain some traction in the community. One of the first private events that was held at our venue was a “Tacky” themed 40th birthday party, which included such fine cuisine as spray cheese, pork rinds and boxed wine. The guests all decked […]
