Merry Christmas!

To all of our loyal and faithful customers and friends, Ralph and I would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a very special Merry Christmas. Thanks so much to each and every one of you for helping our shop to flourish, and be a place of learning and sharing with each other. The Beads R Us family is truly a family in every sense of the word. Just walking in the door, one immediately picks up on the good feeling and wonderful atmosphere we all share. And of course, it goes without saying that the wonderful ladies, who all are our very special friends, that work in the shop...THANKS TO ALL OF YOU!!! As many of you know, I have had some really disabeling knee problems this summer, followed by surgery in November, and without "the girls", I shudder to think what I would have done. Again...thanks!

Today, we had our little Christmas party. We had 15 to attend, and everyone brought something wonderful to eat. After we all ate everything in site, we played Dirty Santa. What a hoot! I'll tell you what....there was some serious sneaking going on! It was absolutely hilarious. I laughed so hard my belly was hurting. Of course, I know the meal I'd just inhaled didn't have a thing to do with that!

Also, time is passing so quickly....just a few more weeks before Cynthia Rutledge arrives. I have 2 spaces left in the class, so if you're interested, better call soon! She's teaching "Circlet of Lace", which looks like something any queen would be proud to wear. It's absolutely gorgeous. Don't miss out on the fun and fellowship...come join us! Call or email the shop for more information.
