As a long
time enthusiastic paper crafter I was thrilled when I discovered
Cherish the Thought. There may be other stores with more volume
but no other store with more heart. From the first
time I entered the store, queried a technique, and found myself
sitting down at the work table "doing it myself" I was
hooked. We don't craft because it is easier or because it costs
less - we craft because we love this way of expressing creativity
- and no one understands this compulsion better than Jessie and
the other people at Cherish the Thought. Don't compete, don't compromise,
don't change. Thank you.

You
must know by now how much I love your "little shop of
love". Ever since I walked in to the store a year ago,
I was made to feel so welcome, and still have the same feeling. The
atmosphere is always so friendly and welcoming you just want to "hang
out".
You have a fantastic staff, they are an extension of you. They make
everyone feel welcome and are so helpful.
But, even though the staff is fantastic, it would not be the store
it is, without "YOU". Your bubbly enthusiasm
and personality is so great, compared to other "places"
that I have gone too.
I have taken numerous classes, and have enjoyed them all, the people
who do your classes are such a friendly group of people...so all in
all the whole experience of shopping and participating in you classes
has been a lot of fun, and always look forward to coming in to the
store, and hearing all you little stories, about your little sweetie
pie....(didn't say cutie pie) lol. I look forward to your weekly newsletter
and have learned a lot from the classes. I was a total newbie, when
I first came into your store, and now I have a "mini cherish
the thought" in my house. And if I can ever help in anyway you
know you only have to ask.

We
walked into "Cherish" and immediately felt like part
of the family. Jessie was so warm and open that we felt like
we belonged. We learned so much in twenty minutes of just chatting...it
left us a bit dazed, but oh-so-excited to learn and explore more techniques!
Cherish the Thought is amazing, and Jessie is a treasure!

Thinking about what my testimonial for Cherish would say, I had to
laugh at myself for not being "creative" enough to put into
words what I feel when I come to the shop. Isn't the whole point of
your shop to help us find our creativity? I dropped by one day out
of curiosity and was peering in the window after noticing the store
hours saying the store was closed. Wrong. Sure enough Jessie was there
setting up for a class and waved me in. Well, about 45 minutes later
not only was I interested in being a repeat customer, I was signed
up for classes and walking out with the most amazing bag full of goodies.
I have found that my creativity needs inspiration. I found it in the
form of a little shop with the biggest heart. I "Cherish
the thought" that I can pop in and pick up a small item for my
craft or sit down with a cup of tea and learn a technique I'd only
imagined being able to do.
Thank you from your devoted customer,

I would like to say how much I love coming to Cherish, You girls are
the best. Always willing to help on techniques give advice and also
just to come by for tea and a chat. I wouldn’t know what to
do if I didn’t have your place to come to. I’ve met such
wonderful people had such great fun at the classes.
It’s a great meeting place. You have all been so very kind to
me and I very much cherish your friendships. You are the best.

If
you are looking for a place that has the latest and greatest
techniques you've found it. Jessie and her wonderful staff
have shown me so many neat techniques that I would never known how
to do if it wasn't for them. There are always willing to go
the extra mile to help you out whether it is ordering in
a stamp that I wanted or just showing me some new ways to use some
of my existing supplies. I love going to Cherish the Thought to get
inspired as well as relax as it has such homey feel to it. I look
forward to each visit.

Cherish
the Thought feels like coming home ... it really
does. Where else can you see old friends, make new ones and share
a relaxing, affordable, enjoyable hobby? Great projects,
fun products, superb demos and awesome staff add to the
experience and somehow it feels like your cropping on your best
friend's dining table. A may be a new customer but Jessie and her
team are now stuck with me for life. See you there!

Every
time I come into Cherish the Thought, I'm greeted with such warmth
and friendliness. I love the variety of stock and get tons
of ideas while I'm shopping. Most of all, I love that everyone is
so helpful!!!
Thanks so much for opening up in Port Moody!!

I haven't been a customer of Cherish the Thought for all that long....I
only discovered them this past fall. But, I've been treated
like an old friend every time I go to the store. You can
find everything you need, and sometimes more than. Their classes
are a treat to attend...well thought out, innovative ideas,
and a smaller class size so all participants regardless of ability
get personalized attention. And there's always a hot cup of tea if
you need one. Jessie and her staff really are wonderful.
