Happenings at Beads R Us

Ralph and I hope that all of you are doing well with all this cold, rainy weather we've had lately. Hopefully, it will be turning a little warmer soon, and everyone will be ready for Mardi Gras, and then the Spring!

There's much happening around the shop. We've recently received a new shipment of Czech fire polished beads, as well as new seed beads and Delicas. Also arriving soon will be new books on technique and design to help you enhance the already beautiful work you do. Our classes are up and going strong, also. I am back in the shop teaching again. I seem to have weathered the problems with my knee, and am "ready to rock" as they say.

The workshop with Cynthia Rutledge was awesome! We learned so many neat things. She graciously brought examples of everything she teaches, and I can't describe how beautiful they all are. She is such a talented artist, and has agreed to come back and visit us in January '08, so make your plans now to join us. Information about the class will be posted as time grows closer. The workshop project is TBA.

Currently, we're preparing to go on our Beadcruise to Cozumel and Costa Maya in late March. Ralph and I will be the "bead shop on board" once again. There's still time to sign up if you wish to go. www.beadcruise.com

All of the "Bizzy Beaders" have been busy creating lots of new, beautiful pieces. If you'd like to join us, come every Thursday afternoon or evening. We're there 'til around 7:30 p.m., sometimes later. I promise you'll enjoy it! If you have any questions or otherwise need information, please call the shop.

Take care, and "Happy Beading"!
