Archiver's of Memphis has announced they are closing their doors for good.

In an email to customers the store announced they are having a clearance sale now. Everything in the store is on sale for 25 percent off and some items are on a deeper discount.

They are closing up shop in just a few days on March 3.

The store has been in Memphis for years and has many loyal customers that will be sad to see it close.

Another area scrapbook store, Eclectica in Bartlett closed late last year. Archiver's closing leaves the Memphis area without a specialty scrapbook store.
