NanC Meinhardt Class
In case you haven't already heard, Beads R Us is really on the move these days. We are continuously getting in new beads and other products to help you optimize, and if possible, further enjoy your beading experience.
We are also excited about upcoming events. Beads R Us is proud to announce that on June 9-10, 2007, we will be hosting a workshop featuring NanC Meinhardt. For those of you not familiar with NanC and her beautiful beadwork, take a moment to check it out at www.NancMeinhardt.com . Our workshop will feature two projects, the first being "Super Froth" bracelet, and the second being "Deneene's Necklace". Super Froth is a beautiful bracelet done using the Ndebele (Herringbone) stitch, but with different sized beads and stitched on the diagonal, with a wonderful "froth" of beads for a closure. Deneene's Necklace is a stunning, elegant rope necklace stitched using a peyote base. The fee for NanC's workshop is $180, which includes lunch both days. Should you wish to participate in one of the projects only, the fee is $90. We're very glad to welcome NanC to "our neck of the woods" since this will be her first visit to Louisiana. Don't miss this opportunity to join us for this workshop. All you have to do is call (318-442-8666) or email (beadsus@bellsouth.net) to reserve your spot for this class. Kits will be available, or you are welcome to use your own choice of beads for the projects. The list is filling up fast, so don't delay!
Ralph and I had an absolutely wonderful time on our beadcruise to Cozumel and Costa Maya, Mexico. We have been invited to return with our bead shop for the 2008 Beadcruise. Thank you, Heather, and Bevvie! Plans are currently in the making, and when they are final, details will be announced. Check out the beautiful pictures at www.beadcruise.com . We made it to the midnight chocolate buffet, and were treated to one of the most beautiful buffets I've ever seen. And OH MY GOODNESS!!! I cannot even begin to describe the food. Fabulous!!
Beads R Us is also proud to announce a mini workshop featuring local polymer clay artist Becky Single. Come join us on Thursday, May 3 , at 6:30 p.m., and see what it's all about. In the very near future, classes using this medium will be offered at the shop. Call or come by for more information.
And last, but certainly not least, we are gearing up for the annual Shreveport Bead Retreat, held on the first weekend of August each year. My friend, Ida Williams, is working feverishly to make this the best retreat to date. Come join us......you won't be sorry. Information and details concerning the retreat are available at the shop, or visit Ida's website http://iwilli71129.com/2ndshreveportbeadretreat . You are in for a treat!
