We are CERTIFIABLE...

It's official.  I have been waiting months to get into the CERTIFIED FISKARS DEMONSTRATOR program and I finally got the email that a class was going to be held in the FISKARS Headquarters, "would I be interested in driving to Madison for it?"  YOU BET!! After a few (about 10-12) emails were sent back and forth, I was able to get not only myself but two others from the Picture This staff into the class and we are now ALL official CFD's!
The photo below is (left to right) 
Nikki (CFD Coordinator), Dawn, Maya (our fabulous Teacher), Leann and Barb
In our 4 hour class we learned about a lot of cool FISKARS tools that Maya had brought along with her and Nikki (CFD coordinator and staffer at headquarters) even let us play with some new ones...since we were at the HQ, we were able to see a lot of cool things.
A little fun  with the big scissors...
And a little MORE fun.....

We all had a  really great day and we are excited to teach others how to use all the great FISKARS tools that you might already own and the ones you REALLY REALLY need to get!  I know I learned a bunch of new things and am excited about some new innovations in the tools we played with.  Who knew there were SO MANY cutting tools!!

Stop by the store and we can show you.

A little Experiment


For a while now I have wanted to see how many steps I take at work putting out new stuff and working with customers.  So, I finally remembered to put on my pedometer and this is the number I came up with.

That is almost as many steps as we took in ONE day walking around the Show floor at CHA in Chicago last month.

So you can't say we aren't hoofin' it at work!
And the pile of boxes below would be why.  That is just one days shipments.  There are three more large boxes in the back too!  Ahhh, the smell of new paper.....




What is in those boxes?  BoBunny, Provo Craft,  and more....
