Moving Shop!

March 31, 2014 | goldenbuttonshop

Hello everyone,
I just wanted to say hello and to let you all know what The Golden Button is moving…. I should have posted this last week but everything happened pretty fast.
As you all know…. the parking lot at The Golden Button is a bit of a nightmare.
Long story short and sweet…. The parking situation I am fighting is a losing battle…. And has gotten so out of
hand that I have decided that I will not resign my lease and the shop will be relocating.
Unfortunately… I made the final decision very late and I have not found a new location.

I am very excited to look for a new spot and to see what else I will
do in my future. I would very much like to re-open a new location but I
am also considering the possibilities of just having a studio or
something else. Who knows….. its a mystery! Thank you all for being
so wonderful and I am terrible grateful for my experience and to have
met you all and made all these wonderful friends along the way!

The Golden Button contacts will remain the same. I will still be teaching locally so please continue to follow The Golden Button on facebook and visit the website. Please keep checking in to see what is new on our agenda. We are currently in the planning stages for lots of classes in surrounding towns, I am still teaching enrichments and still offering birthday parties. So please feel free to contact me for anything. You may also still order paintings, crochet items and other treasures from The Golden Button. I am also working on an online store so you can still get your needle felting supplies and great local items!

Thank you all for being wonderful customers and for supporting me in my ventures!

Hopefully we will see you soon at a class or at a grand opening!
