New stuff just arrived!

We just opened the boxes of lots of "new" vintage lucite, brass stampings and findings!

We're stranding fast & furious and have all the stock out for your beading enjoyment. I'll post some more samples as we finish them (I made a new lucite necklace last night...now I want matching earrings!)

Happy Tuesday!

while I've been away...

Ok, that title sounds like the beginnings of a bad country song, but I have been away...at least from blogging.

I do have reasons, although, I realize there really is no excuse for not posting in such a long time, but I promise to make it up to all of you.

First, here is a picture of one of the things I have been working on during my "absence":

These are new samples for the color on metal workshop to be held this fall...I have lots more samples to share, and I promise to get caught up soon ( I don't really need sleep). We'll also have a new workshop series on making a business with your arts & crafts. Topics for the first few are, making money with your craft, picture taking tips for crafters, and retail & wholesale marketing strategies. Check out the website and this here blog for more info in the next few weeks.
