Beverlys Unique Scrapbooking

I’ve been living in the area for 2 years and always walked by this place with my dog wandering what was inside. I figured a lot of places don’t allowed dogs so I never ventured in. It wasn’t that long ago that I decided to give it a try going in with my dog. I approached the door and didn’t see a «No pets» sign, so I went in. A nice lady greeted me at the door (which I just found out is the owner) and I asked if it was ok to browse the store with my dog. She said no problem. The prices are comparable to going to Joann’s or Michaels. Granted, these big box stores have coupons that help get you a great deal but they are not that close to me, so if something costs a $ 1 more at Beverly’s, it’s the equivalent of gas for me to drive to Elk Grove or Natomas. I just walk there. The selection is pretty varied. It works for what I do, which are cards. I have a lot of paper stacks so I don’t really look at her selection. Some of the tools she has I already own, but I would prefer to buy them cheaper on Amazon.

This is a great place for people who like to scrapbook. They have an nice selection of papers, stickers and embellishments. They also have a large area for people to scrap. I only gave it three stars because I thought it would have a larger variety of paper crafting supplies, instead of only focusing on scrapbooking (stamps, dies, ink, embossing etc). The owner was very friendly and I do recommend it for people who like to scrapbook.

I have been coming here since I was pregnant with my daughter (who is turning 9 in Sept) and every time I come there its always so fun! I love her store its cute and packed with great things I love!!! I am happy its stayed open this long because a lot of stores I know, went out of business.

Very wonderful store – met owner Beverly. Very informative and gave wonderful suggestions for using different mediums. Wish I lived closer so I could attend some technique classes. The store is small but organized nicely and has many products of interest. Will make every effort to visit store when I am in the area again. Thank you Beverly for a shining example of excellent customer service.

Best Scrapbooking store! Lots of room to crop! Very helpful owner! Would never go anywhere else!

Beverly’s is a quaint little store with quite a bit of variety of products. Not as much paper as I’d hoped, but lots of embellishments. The owner is very nice, and there’s a large area designated for crafting projects. I was hoping it would be larger and I would find more supplies that fit my taste, but I’m still thrilled to find that a scrapbooking store actually still exists.

Scrapbooking is expensive!
Beverly’s is a small store on South Land Park in the same plaza as the post office. It’s packed with products. but neat. They have all the staples like books, papers, stickers, scissors, things to keep the clutter. The lady running the store is very helpful. In the back of the store is a classroom space.
If you don’t like close spaces, you won’t like shopping here. But for a one-​stop shop and the helpful guidance of the owner– great. But, costly.

I didn’t actually get to go to this store, so my review is skewed. The sign on the door says they are «on vacation» but doesn’t say when they are re-​opening (this was about a week ago). Hopefully I’ll get a chance to shop here, if I can catch them when they’re open…

Beverly’s is a nice little shop with a wonderful selection of scrapbooking paper and stickers. They have lots of other tools and supplies as well. I usually spend an hour everytime I visit because I take my time looking at everything. No one minds that I’m there that long. The store is clean and well-​organized.

I’ve been in this store once and actually got to meet Beverly. She seemed friendly, although she took a phone call half way through ringing me up and didn’t end the call until after I left. I guess that is the luxury of owning your own business.
As for the store itself, it is a bit small, but packed to the brim with a decent mix of papers and embellishments, tools, stamps, and other accoutrements. If you are looking for the latest and greatest, however, you may have to look hard and you still might not find it.
I’ll admit, I’m pretty particular about what goes on my scrapbook pages. I tend to approach it as an art form, and I like to experiment with different mediums and incorporate ecclectic elements into my pages. Beverly’s Unique Scrapbooking, though the name implies otherwise, actually offers standard fare. Some of the manufacturers listed on her website as part of the inventory (the manufacturer list that drew me into the store in the first place), I was hard-​pressed to find actually in stock.
I guess what I am trying to say is that if I find myself needing very quickly some more alphabet stickers or another sheet of much-​loved but discontinued paper, then I will make the almost-​hour-​long with a transfer lightrail/​bus trip to Beverly’s. Otherwise, I’ll hunt it down online and wait the 5 days for the post to arrive.
One cool thing about this store is the crop area near the back. It was busy the day I went in and it seemed as if all those ladies had been friends for years. So, if I ever felt the need to put forth an effort to get «IN» with a new group of scrapping ladies, it would probably be a good place to go.

The store is small, but very neat, clean, and pretty. It has a lot of products used is scrapbooking, like different types of papers, stickers, special scissors, etc. However, the specialty papers are a tad bit more expensive than the ones sold at Art Ellis and there aren’t as many different types to choose from.
The thing that annoys the hell out of me is the fact that there is no price tag at all on most (or any) of the items. If I want to buy 10 different kinds of paper, I would have to ask the person at the register to look up the prices for each of those papers for me. It’s so annoying because I don’t want to have to keep coming back to the front to ask for the price and look like a cheap-​ass because I don’t want to pay $ 1 for one piece of paper. Additionally, they don’t sell the papers in bulk, like in a package of 10 pieces or so, so if I wanted 50 pieces, I’d be out of luck. Also, I spent $ 10 on 8 pieces of paper that weren’t exactly the prettiest papers in the world, so I felt a bit ripped off.
Otherwise, it’s a pretty place to go to if you have the money and you don’t mind blowing it all on making your own scrapbooks.
