Did you know that over 50 percent of all Valentine’s Day cards are purchased just six days prior to Valentine’s Day?

Beat the crowds and the limited selections by stopping at Shake Rag Alley’s Valentine Card Sale this Saturday, the 31st from 10am-3pm. Are you one of the procrastinators? No worries, the Valentine Sale will continue on Saturday, February 7th from 10am-3pm.

Shake Rag Alley’s marvelous volunteers have been busy bees preparing hundreds of hand-made, one-of-a-kind Valentine cards for you to deliver to your Valentine. The past three Wednesdays they have gathered in the creative entity that is the Ellery House and produced some outstanding works of art in the form of Valentine cards. The cards come in various styles and include cards for everyone from the grandkids to grandma. Cards range in price so there is something for every budget.

Cookies, hot cocoa and sweetheart punch will be served to shoppers. The Valentine Card Sale is a fundraiser in support of Shake Rag Alley’s creative programming.
