Checks will be issued on the 10th of each month for the previous months sales. These checks will be available for pickup in the store.

Cards for Soldiers Workshop
You are invited to join Cindy and Jackie at Checkered Cottage to create cards that our soldiers can send home to their families and friends for
holidays or special events that occur while they are out of the country. We host this event once a month with holidays changing monthly, but you
are not restricted to create only holiday cards. You bring in your supplies to create and share ideas with other fellow cardmakers. A 10% discount
is offered in the shop during this time if you wish to make any purchases. If you are not able to attend our monthly card night - we do accept cards
daily in the store and they will be mailed out once a month to the soldiers. All monetary donations towards shipping costs are appreciated. We have the
Operation Write Home stamp available in our shop that needs to be put on the back of every card. The requirements on what can and can not be on a
card can be found at www.operationwritehome.org along with the schedule for the mailing of certain holidays. No glitter can be used on a card.
For more information for upcoming dates please call Checkered Cottage at 314-909-7233.
