Meet Trixie, The Ashley's Attic Elf on the Shelf

Santa decided to send an elf for the shop with this latest Elf on the Shelf shipment. Trixie has made her spot up near the door at the shop where she can see everything...and everyone! Check out her cute skirt! Santa told her to keep an eye on the kids that visit the store; to see what everyone wants for Christmas and to make sure they're being good when they're out in public!

So far, she hasn't had toooo many complaints!

Don't forget that we have the Elf on the Shelf skirts for the girl elves, the Elf on the Shelf Activity Books, elf bows & elf headbands!

Thankful & Black Friday info

Happy Thanksgiving from our family to yours!

Have a wonderful day, stuff your faces with lots of yummy food, watch the Macy's Parade, sleep during the football games (that's what I do!) or watch the football games, spend time with family and friends and most of all, give thanks to God for all of the blessings that we have in our lives!

Oh, and Black Friday?

Yeah...we'll be around. We'll be open and I'm sure that we'll be running some great deals!

No doorbusters though...so please don't be waiting for us at 5am or earlier...we'll be asleep and then spending time with visiting family and making breakfast. We'll be there just a little before our usual time probably. All of our gifts will still be there when you're done shopping the very early morning deals!

Holiday Extended Hours

We know you work hard and that many times your schedules don't allow for much free time to shop during our regular hours at the shop. That's why during the month of December we will have special extended shopping hours.

We will continue to open at 10am Monday through Saturday and on

Mondays, Tuesdays & Thursdays we will be open until 7pm.

We will close at the regular times on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays.

On Sundays in December we will be open from 12:30pm (after church and lunch) until 3pm.

Of course, we want to work with your schedule and if you still aren't able to make it to the shop...we'll work it out with you! Give us a call during regular store hours and we'll set up a time to be open just for you - celebrity-style! Someone is pretty much always "on call" and can be there to open the shop at any time!

We're here for you because we want to make your holiday great!

PLUS...

We have a no-hassle layaway plan.

We offer free gift-wrapping.

We have Christmas gift registries for super easy shopping!

We ship to out-of-town customers.

We have great ideas for gifts and stocking stuffers.

We can find something for nearly everyone on your Christmas list.

We don't jack up our prices so that we can have weekly sales - our everyday prices are reasonable and when we have a sale - you know we mean business!

We're a kid-friendly shop and they don't have to tiptoe around. The kids can play in the play area and you can shop to your heart's content!

...and we know Santa, so it pays to shop at Ashley's Attic!

Elf on the Shelf - more on the way

Due to a wonderful response from y'all...we are completely out of the Elf on the Shelf!

Well, since it's only Thanksgiving week - and since there are still plenty of kids out there without elves...and plenty of parents out there who need that extra help bribing the kids...and because we've had several requests - we've got another shipment coming in. They should be here this week.

Also keep in mind that we have the Elf on the Shelf Christmas Activity Book - a little something to keep the kids occupied while they're out of school for Christmas break and being so good!

Also in stock is the Elf on the Shelf skirt for the girl elves out there.

Thanksgiving is a great time to begin this tradition with your family so come on in and get your very own Elf on the Shelf!

Bling bling!

Ok, the pictures do not do this jewelry justice! It is so cute and definitely isn't your little sister's jewelry. This is jewelry for you - the moms, the college students, the aunts, the fashionistas, the girlfriends and fiances...you get the picture! And yes...a few of the little sisters might want this jewelry too!

Check out the pictures but then definitely come into the shop and see the real deal. Christmas is near and it's a great time to start putting things on layaway.

Ladies, feel free to give me a call if you see something that you like. I've been known to "hint" to boyfriends and husbands when the need arrises!

Baby needs a new pair of shoes!

Check out some of the fall Squeak Me shoes that we have in stock! Aren't they cute?

Actually, I would love to have a pair of the pink ones for myself!

Boys, Girls...dressy, casual...there's a pair of Squeak Me shoes for every little kid and every occasion.

I didn't even get on my computer yesterday...so I didn't get to do a Veteran's Day post.

Really, though, every day should be Veteran's Day. right?

I could type a big paragraph with flowery words of gratitude to try to get my point across...

But really there are only two words for the brave men and women who served (and are currently serving) our country....

THANK YOU!
