We have a new name! InKleined To Stamp will now operate under the name "Mélange". It was a hard change to
make after thirteen years but it had become clear that it was necessary. We were finding that "InKleined To Stamp"
was misleading to non-stampers about what we carried. Even though we have expanded our gift selection tourists
and locals alike were turning away from the store, assuming that all we carried were rubber stamps. In today's
economy it will take more than stamps to keep this place going. We can not continue turning potential customers
away because of the name. "Mélange" is French for "a mixture or medley", which is exactly what we have. That,
plus being located in a French town, made "Mélange" an ideal name for the business. However, we do want to assure
all of you stampers that we will continue to carry the stamps and supplies that you have come to expect here.
If you have not been here for a while your first reaction might be that there are not as many stamps. The front
of the store can be misleading due to an increase in gift items. We have rearranged the stamp area to make better
use of the space that we have. Things have been moved closer together and the walls are pretty much full from
top to bottom. Our full inventory still exists, as well as several new orders. If you take a walk to the back two-thirds
of the store you will find plenty of stamps. The stamp area of the store will still be referred to as "InKleined To Stamp".
Much like "InKleined To Stamp" used to be located within "The Craft Depot", now it will be located within "Mélange".
The change is in the overall name only. We are still dedicated to being primarily a rubber stamp store.
