DAYTIME CLASSES ARE HERE!
~~~ ~~~
~~~ If you've thought
about taking classes at the bead chick, but just can't do so in
the evening, we have great news! DAYTIME CLASSES ARE HERE!!
Thanks to our new location, we are
thrilled to be able to offer a large variety of classes each week during
the daytime, in addition to our continuing evening curriculum! Many of our
most popular classes, such as BEADING BASICS, SEED BEADING (with Seed
Bead Queen Nancy McShane), and the fun CHA CHA BRACELET are now offered
during the day! So is the new and exciting DOMINO JEWELRY Class with
Elle Barry, who insists that nothing is ever just black and
white!
Please be sure to check out the
July and August Class Schedule for complete descriptions and photos
of class projects!
And did you know...
If you don’t see the class you
want, guess what, you can ask for it! Either by
email, phone (904-829-8829) or in person. Some classes
can be set up for one-on-one instruction, or will definitely
repeat. And we love to work with your schedule, so just let us
know!

THE
NEW SIGN
IS UP!!
~~~ ~~~ ~~~
Our brand new sign now hangs out front once
more...we've been hard to find since it blew down in the hurricane last
August. Here's what to look for over our door.
We hope
you will come in soon!

In case you're a
seasonal visitor or just haven't visited our store for a while,
the bead chick has moved! But not far – just to the
north end of the same building we have always been in, right next to the
stamp shop. When that space became available, we took a look at it and
realized it was just what we needed!
The “shop” part is slightly smaller but
has much more wall space, so we can still offer all the beads we always
did. But the best part is that we now have a large classroom area in the
back. Since we are a “teaching” bead shop this is important to us,
because we can now offer classes during the daytime without interfering
with normal shopping activities.
We hope you will come in soon to check
out our new location!

~~~

torches as well as Mapp gas used by the Hothead, Moretti glass rods,
dydimium glasses, rod rests, Blue Sludge bead release, fiber blankets and
more.

PUFFY CRYSTAL HEART
INSTRUCTION BOOK and KITS!
~~~ ~~~
~~~ We are very
excited to present Susie Moncada's complete instructions on how to
create Puffy Crystal Hearts! As you may remember, Susie taught this
popular technique to bead chick groups on November 9 and 10.
In her book, Susie details each step in
the process in clear language using full color photos for each step.
This book is a "must-have" for any beader's library and are in limited
supply.
In conjunction with Susie Moncada's
book, we are offering complete kits in many colors at a savings of 20%
over purchasing the supplies "a la carte." We are also happy to make
these beautiful hearts as custom orders to save you time when you just
can't take on another craft project. Please see our
Featured
Products page for complete details.
