July Bead-Therapy Newsletter and Class Schedule! Come see us!!
July Newsletter
Sure, I know it's after July 1st, but I've been busy! OK, we are still getting closer to having a LOT of our items on line, but we still have a ways to go! I'm furiously taking pictures and getting them on the web, but it takes time to get over 20,000 items photographed and uploaded. Not everything is going to be sold on line, but call me if you know I have something that you want, but it's not on line. www.bead-therapy.com is the address. Visit us!! (and buy lots!!)
Thanks to everybody who visited us during the big 6th annual anniversary sale. If I called and let you know you won a raffle prize and haven't picked it up yet, please do so. If we don't hear from you.... we might just have to draw again. That would be so SAD.....for YOU!!
And you may notice that the font size changes, bold, not bold, the justification if off. No matter what I do to these newsletters, something just doesn't work. I've tried copy and pasting for a word document and that doesn't work either. So I am very sorry that the newsletters always are looking a bit funny, and I've complained to my POS company (that's Point of Sale, not Piece of ....you know) and they tell me that they are trying to make it more user friendly, but then- here we are again..... sorry. Read on and try to forgive me. I just can't fix it.
We now have beautiful tool kits that you can borrow while in the shop to use during classes or if you want to come in and work on your own project and can't find your tools. I sell the same kits in the shop if you like them, just in more fun colors. You can check out the kits with any of the employees and we ask you to leave your driver's license with us while you use the kit and we'll give it back when you check the kit back in. We will make sure all the pieces are still there. We check them when anybody checks them back in. Not just you. Several of our shop tools have gone missing, and I know it's from people just absent mindedly picking them up with their tools, but they never seem to come back and then we have no tools for other students to learn with. So new policy! Check out tool kits!! Yay!!
Ooooh! This month with have a class during the middle of the week!! Shocking, I know, but I thought we'd try something new and since everybody with vaccines are starting to get out a bit more......WEDNESDAY!! Yay!! And I'm going to start having some classes "on demand" during the week. I have several teachers that are available during the week and we have several classes that they can come in and teach whenever you want (be reasonable- not 2am) with a day or three notice. We'd prefer that the classes would be for 2 or more people, but you can always ask, and if the teacher lives nearby- they might agree to do the class for one person. Or if you give us a future date, we can list it on the monthly calendar and maybe get some other students. There might be an extra charge for just one student ($5 or $10 depending on the teacher/class). I'll get the list of classes on demand going and put them on my website- www.bead-therapy.com
