We're Back In Business!!

After closing for only a few days, on June 27 we opened for business at #232 5th Avenue! It's been fantastic!
We are so thankful for all the warm welcomes, good wishes, love & support from our fabulous customers, friends and family! 
We are also hugely thankful for the work of our contractor, Rosario, and his crew, and also the guys at Bergen Tile. They truly went above & beyond.
And we are incredibly thankful for our friends Brad, Tom, Teena, Art & Leah who helped with the actual move (Cheers to All!!). They worked their muscles to nubs with amazing energy moving boxes & displays across the street, putting together Ikea furniture, and hanging track lighting - again (thanks, Tom!). And, we have 2 extra-special "thank you's". One goes out to Leah for being there with us since the beginning of this craziness & keeping us all together! The other goes out to Nathan, who flew all the way from Colorado to, among many other glamorous things, move 100 or more boxes - heavy boxes - across the street, and to help build some of our beautiful new displays. 
THANK YOU!!

I'm a little slow on the uptake, but I'll have pictures soon...And, hopefully, a new awning!

Oh, and PS - Moleskine 18 Month Planners are in! 3 styles - 2 in black, and 1 in red! Get 'em while they're hot!

Last Day!

Our last day was Father's Day - Here's Leah making the last official sale at 229 5th Avenue!

Thank you all for supporting us for the last seven years at 229 5th Ave. - 
And, Thank You for Ten Whole Years of wonderful support!
(Nora, Damond & Leah at the narrowest point in the old store - saying their farewells....)

Let the packing begin!

MOVING WEEK!

Here's the floor being prepped & installed - Looking Good!


An Important Note:

Because of the move, we'll be closed for the bulk of this week, but we'll re-open for the weekend! A quick turnaround, we hope, so there's little interruption. Pop by & say Hi - we'll be the ones with the boxes in hand......See you soon!

Custom Cards

Just a quick note to let everyone know that, because of the move, unfortunately we're not accepting any new custom card orders until July 1st. We apologize for the downtime, but after that, we'll be up & running to create invites & announcements galore!

A Few Pic's

SO......the creation of the New & Improved store is under way!

Because we needed a bit more time to make the space lovely, the New Re-Opening
will be the weekend after Father's Day.


A few more peeks into the construction (looking toward the back of the store) from last week.....more later.....

Here We Go!



Here we have the beginning shots of making #232 5th Ave. into Scaredy Kat Grande

The demo has started & this week, we'll have the transformation - lovely new walls, floor, and lighting. And so much more room to roam!











Goodbye, back wall - Hello, open spaces!


More to come..........

Scaredy Kat is Moving!!

Yes, that's right - we're moving to bigger digs by the middle of June! We'll be able to carry even more great things in a wider space, that's easier to maneuver! 

We'll be sad to leave our home for the last 7 years, but will be happy to embrace our new home right across the street for years to come. 



                                                We hope you'll be happy with it, too! Come on down & visit - we hope to be up & running in the new space by the weekend of the 12th.


New Address: 232 5th Avenue
  Brooklyn, NY 11215

Same Phone #: 718/623-1839

We'll see you soon!

(That's virtually our new awning! Damond did some magic to show what it should look like)
