Holiday Hoopla is OVER THE TOP this year! All five samples, from all five AMAZING guest teachers, are in the store and they all look FANTASTIC! I was actually stunned to see all the speical little details that went into each project and how much product and thougth was put into making each one. I took little snippets of pictures of all 5 just to tease you a bit! All five samples will be unveiled this Friday night at our crop. We will be doing our best "Vanna" impersonation as we bring out each sample one at a time each hour on the hour starting at 7!! We have THE MOST TALENTED DESIGNERS COMING TO TEACH FOR HOLIDAY HOOPLA!

HOLIDAY HOOPLA is scheduled for December 7th from 11am to 5pm. Each designer will have one hour to teach their project. We will break midway to grab some much needed lunch. By the end of the event you will have COMPLETED all five beautiful projects. Each project has a value of $20 or more. The cost for the entire event is $100. Because we know that times are hard for most people right now, we are offering a two-payment plan. You can sign up and reserve your place for just $50 and pay the additional $50 by December 6th. You must leave a credit card on file. If you do not attend the event, your card will be charged for the remaining $50 that is due and you will receive a kit for each project. The event is already half full, so call soon to sign up.

Hey everyone at The Pink Pineapple, next year is my first year of high school and i will be looking for a job. So i was wondering if you needed anyone to clean or do the cash register or even take care of the kids, i love kids and have baby sat a lot, so if you are possibly hiring next year in like September or so that would be great.
