Thanks for 3 great years!

What an amazing 3 years we have had getting to know all of you and helping you with your papercrafting projects. We look forward to seeing you on our last day today. We have loved working with you and will miss you.

We have select items on SALE and lots of grab bags of various goodies that we have found as we started cleaning to get ready for the remodel of our NEW Daisy Bucket Wholesale Head Quarters and Warehouse.

"The Paper Bucket" is being prepped and will open in early October at 235 E Main. It will be located on the same block as Lucky Ends, Andee's Boutique and IG Gems.

Please stop by and say Hi!

We also want to add an event to our Daisy Bucket Headquarters once a month to meet up with all of our customers that want to stay updated, see sneak peeks of new products and just say Hi! More details will be coming once we have completed our remodel. We are also looking for a great catchy name for this little event...we have been calling it "happy hour" but don't love that. So if anyone has any great ideas let us know. There will be a prize for the best name for our "happy hour" event with all of you. We will make sure to have an open house for everyone to see the transformation and come say Hi!

Thanks and again and we hope to see you today!

Cassandra, Melinda, Jason and Kristi & Tanya!

Store Closing - Moving and Re-Opening!

It is bittersweet that we announce the closure of Daisy Bucket Designs retail store.

3 years ago we made a life changing decision to open Daisy Bucket Designs retail store. With the help of our amazing family's and our {Bucket} family & friends it has grown beyond what we could have imagined.

Two years ago we launched our product collection that is sold to stores like ours all over the world. We couldn't have imagined or foreseen the amazing response by thousands of stores of our products. It is exciting to know that our products can be found in over 30 countries in the hands of papercrafters worldwide.The time has come now for us to turn our consistent focus and efforts to our wholesale division and creative endeavors of developing, designing and manufacturing Daisy Bucket Designs products.

Daisy Bucket retail store at 372 E Main will be closing our doors Saturday September 20th at 5:00pm. Although bittersweet we are excited that this closing isn't a permanent closing of an amazing scrapbook store here in Hermiston.

Daisy Bucket is thrilled to annouce Becky Brown as the new store owner of

The Paper Bucket!

The store is set to open on October 1st on Main street just a block away. Construction has started to make it the cutest and best scrapbook store in town. The Paper Bucket will be carrying the full collection of Daisy Bucket products as well as all of your favorite name brands. Classes will be held and we will make guest appearances to teach on occasion. Many of your favorite programs like our recipe kits, color creation jars and papers, monthly card classes and more will contine. We will stay connected with Becky as she starts her journey to create an amazing new scrapbook and papercrafting store in Hermiston.
