Print Price Increase

2F7A1055.jpg

We have all experienced a challenging time over the last year. The rapid escalation of raw material costs combined with shipping costs have forced us to re-evaluate our print pricing. While we have absorbed many of these costs, it has now become necessary to factor a portion of these increases into our prices.

Our revised print prices will take effect on July 1st.

We greatly appreciate your continued business and support during these unprecedented times. We will continue to work tirelessly to meet your printing needs and minimize disruptions.

We will be introducing a new paper, torn edges, packaging and more. If you have any requests/suggestions, we welcome a comment or email with your ideas.

Changing things up

We Are Open!

After weeks of being closed, we are back open with our summer hours of 10am to 5pm on Monday through Friday. As a small business, the forced closure hit us and other small businesses hard. Some of our fellow businesses were not able to make it through these uncertain times. Please continue to support your small businesses and your community.


New Additions!

We are adding some new items to the store this summer. Summer Hammons of Hammons Nest, previously known as My Happy Place, will be stocking Dixie Belle Paint here starting next week. She is in the process of closing her business, but she wanted to continue to offer Dixie Belle Paint to her customers in the area. She reached out to us about stocking it at Fine Line and we thought it would be a great addition. We can’t wait to meet her customers at Fine Line!

You’ve asked and we’ve listened! We will be adding some more fun gift items to the store as well as new art supplies. There may be a little chaos over the next few weeks as we rearrange to make room, so please be patient with us.


Rewards Program Ending

And now the sad news. We have decided to end our rewards program. While the rewards program was free to our customers, the program was a paid service for us. Aside from the free stuff and cash discounts we offered through the program, it was a high monthly fee that we can’t carry any longer. Due to the lack of participation in the program and the loss of income from the coronavirus shutdown, we have decided to shelve this for now. You can redeem remaining points until the end of July.

There is a silver lining though! We are in the process of slashing prices throughout the store. In order to compete with online giants and keep an option for quality art supplies locally, we are offering everyday discounts on all of your favorite supplies. For example, paints, brushes, and canvases are up to 50% off everyday with prices matching or beating the big box stores.

As always, just because we don’t have it on the shelf, doesn’t mean we can’t get it. We are happy to help with custom orders from a tube of paint to ginormous stretched canvases.
