SO! I’m sorry I have been flaky! My computer died last week and I’ve been in a panic trying to find a replacement hard drive. I’ve been using Lora’s computer but that takes some getting used to. I’m sure that some of you are as attached to your computer as I am, so you can understand my pain. *tear*
I realize that this doesn’t completely excuse my absence. Phyllis also dropped off a fairly large collection of jewelry for me to put on Etsy. So that has been taking up a lot of my time here at The Bead Biz.
Today starts Etsy’s Yart Sale! ( Yard +art= Yart ) We are participating, go check out the items we’ve selected for it.Yart Sale!
It’s been busy today in the shop! We’ve had some sweet ladies stay for a while. Ms. Deana Cross and Ms. Leslie Hubbard have been having a wonderful time today making all sorts of things and hanging out with us.
Also, a very talented English lady came by, Claire Mathews. She makes beautiful tassels in gorgeous jewel tones. We’re going to try and get her to teach a class here in July. I’ll have my fingers crossed.



Everyone admiring the tassels
I’ll be in the shop later tomorrow! I hope to see some new faces!

Hey, this is Deana, one of the sweet ladies…we had a great time today. We came with some beads, bought more beads, strung beads, matched our beads with their beads, and had a great cup of coffee…The English lady was terrific…her tassels were absolutely breath taking…I must learn how…
Left the shop just in time for the afternoon storm…

Well I’m glad you had such a great time! It was wonderful to meet you. I think I’m tempted to start using the word ‘hideous’ now.
..and hopefully we’ll get to learn about the tassels in July! It would be fun to learn something different like that! I hope you have a great week! See you soon!

That sweet lady Deana is my best friend since we were 4 years old. I love her. Thank you for puting her picture on this blog.
