Smiley Face... :)


THANKS SO MUCH for everyone who came to our Anniversary Celebration. 35 people came, and 24 of those came to the 2 Hour Power Sale afterwards. Thanks again! We are hopeful to continue this tradition every year, and maybe next year we will be fortunate to hold it in one of our new hotels being built right now.


Also, thanks so much for the positive feedback. We have received several letters and emails from you, our loyal customers, in appreciation of the Swap Meet and Free Demos. We were mostly pleased with how much our get together caused new Bead Brain friendships and community. A few of the ladies discovered that they only live a few blocks from each other, and were making plans to get together to bead! How cool is that! Inspiration and encouragement is sometimes all one needs to finally put together designs using that gigantic bead stash one has in her closet!



STAY TUNED: for upcoming design concepts. I, Shelby, will be doing some new step-by-step designs in the months to come. Also, I am going to a BeadFest in Portland, OR in Sept. to learn how to make metal stamped things...which, you know what that means....NEW CLASS!

Have a Fantabulous Day - Shelby

Hey Shelby,

I love this blog and all the tips you post. Like you mentioned above, I enjoyed meeting everyone at the celebration. I was wondering if you could think of a way beaders in the area could exchange email addresses. I would love to talk to other beaders in the area for ideas, etc., but I didn't even think to exchange info on Sunday. If you could think of a way to do this that would be great. Thanks, Kari
