3rd Annual BBQ Festival

Posted on June 3, 2012 at 4:00 AM Comments comments (0)

Thank you everyone who came out to support us during the BBQ festival.  It was great food and would have been a more enjoyable show if it wasn't 104 degrees most of the weekend.

Thank you for great participation for the rivoli class!  It was fun and now opens a door for more creative possibilites.  If any of you would like more details on how to do the same bezel for ordinary garden stones, just shoot me and email.

Can't believe it is already June, with July approaching quickly.  Stay cool and check out the classes for June and July.  Hope to see you there!!

 

Changes

Posted on April 16, 2012 at 2:30 AM Comments comments (0)

Well the last couple of months have had some changes, as always in life.  The location we had at 43rd Ave & Thunderbird has been foreclosed upon. So for you folks you are looking for us there, we are not there anymore.  We are currently searching out alternative locations and as soon as we have selected one, we will let you know. 

At the moment we will be participating in many table shows throughout the valley and will have those posted on the calendar so you can come to see us there. We are also conducting open house events from our home so you are welcome to come to us there. 

Please call 480-398-6879 to make arrangements to stop by and see us.  We are available everyday except Tuesdays from 11:00 am to 6:00 pm.

Thank you for all the support during our transition.

Welcome

1 Year Anniversary

Hard to believe but it has been an entire year at 43rd Ave and Thunderbird.  So many things have changed in the year.  I am done with my other job and started a new one.  The store has grow, inventory has grown and most of all we have grown the number of bead addicts!  It has been a fanastic ride so far!  We sincerely appreciate everyone that has helped us to reach this moment of celebration!! Thank you!

Haven't been here in awhile.....

I haven't been here in a while.... sorry about that!  We are happy to see that people are still checking out the website!  We are offering for a short time free :lol:instruction on all of our needle and thread classes with the purchase of materials at our store - so take advantage while this lasts!  You can still sign up for classes through the contact us section on the Class page. 

 

If you have seen the homepage you will also note that we are having a huge event at the marketplace this coming weekend.   We would love for all of our fans to come pay us a visit! 

 

We have been tossing around the idea of opening this store during the week too - so keep your eyes open for our announcement email.  As soon we have all of the details straightened out we will open the doors (first of course we must put additional one in first). 

 

Also want to let everyone know that we have been very busy adding new merchandise to the walls.  We of course attended the Tucson show in January and we found lots of treasures that we were happy to add to the wall - so come check them out before they are all gone!

 

We will be closed from May 31st to June 7th and we will resume normal hours starting on June 8th.  We'll seeing you guys that weekend but we hope you come to see us the following weekend. :D

Holidays

Posted on December 25, 2009 at 4:30 AM Comments comments (0)

Many of us having been rushing through this holiday because of the economic situation with our country right now.  I want to take a moment and express my gratitude for the things I received this year:  laughs with friends, hugs and kisses from niece and nephew, watching my niece walk for the first time, watching my nephew dance his first dance routine in class, my mother for putting up with all my craziness, my crew dealing with all the nuttiness of the store, my roommate dealing with all my last minute requests, my brother for putting up with my silly questions about computers, the many friends I have gained through my business, the creativity that has come from collobrations and finally all the things I have learned doing this business.  It has been a roller coaster ride this year but I wouldn't change a thing.  Thank you all for putting up with me. 

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

Thank you!

Many of you have taken the time to stop by and see us at our new home and I wanted to take a moment to say THANK YOU!  We are glad that you have decided to keep on visiting with us and allowing us to help you continue with you quest for more beads! 

 

We have received a wonderful response from many of you about the new store and we appreciate it.  But we have to let you in on a secret - we are not nearly as organized as we may appear.  We are still sorting through boxes from the move and we appreciate that you are bearing with us during the transition.

New location

Posted on October 24, 2009 at 5:14 AM Comments comments (2)

Well we have begun to settle in a little bit at our new location.  It has been interesting moving - I certainly could do without all the packing and unpacking.  I am glad that it is finally done.  We still have a few things to get done but we are pretty much there. There are some interesting things going on in this new location.  What I am really excited about is we will be doing trick or treating for the kids on Halloween day.  Each booth will have it set up with candy so kids can get the feel of trick or treating without so many safety issues. I, of course, will be dressed up as my witchy self (question is do I really need a costume for that??)  I hope to see all of you there!

Bead Addicts

Bead Tip of the Day

Threading Needles - Can you say "Aaargh!"  No one likes to thread needles and if we could avoid it by using longer pieces of thread we would.  Sometimes you just have to bite the bullet and thread one. 

The easiest way to thread a needle is to take the thread between index finger and thumb and using your fingernail flatten the end of the thread.  Keep the thread pinched between those two fingers and bring the needle to the thread.  Should be able thread with minimual trouble.  If that fails, cut the tip of the thread and begin process again.  If the second go around, fails use a needle threader.
