I can't believe how time is flying by. Halloween is over;Thanksgiving will soon arrive, then Christmas! It's so hard thinking about Christmas gifts and the holidays seems as though summer has just ended. I've been working on several different projects from recent issues of B&B and Beadwork. There have been some nice things in the last few issues.
The trunk show is still available through this Saturday, November 5th, after that it will be returned to California. This has been a good show with many new beads and lots of color. If you have a chance stop in this week.
Upcoming show for the seed bead folk! There was such a response to the last one we are trying it again next week. I am looking for the boxes and will post when they are in and ready. If you are looking for seed beads in lots of shapes, sizes and colors get in fast, this is a popular show.
Happy Beading everyone!

Trunk Show Going Strong
Hope everyone has been enjoying this beautiful weather! This time of year is one of my favorites. I can keep the shop door open to get some of that fresh air as I bead and work in the shop. Folks have been coming in to shop the Trunk Show for gifts and planning new projects. I spoke to the vendor today and got a weeks extension on the show; so it will be here through the 5th of November.
Also a reminder that the shop will be closed this Saturday. I will be back in on Tuesday morning. Cyn is supposed to be back on Halloween.

Trunk Show
The first few days of this trunk show have been great. Granted, some of the pieces are priced higher but there are plenty of items in the low and median prices. The pearls are in all colors but they are going fast. Southern ladies love their pearls.
Lots of new folks have been stopping in. Beading is still going strong here! I can't wait to have some time to get a new project started. I want to do some metal work with copper and plan a stamping class soon. Anyone interested?

Will be closed the 29 of October
I hate to have to close on a Saturday but something has come up. The shop will only be closed the one day but I hate it is Saturday!. The Trunk show is up and ready for shoppers today and will be here for two weeks. I already see things I want. This show makes mixing and matching easier as it is set up in color groups. Come on in soon!

NEW BEADS
The seed bead trunk show went really well. So well in fact that we hope to do another one before the holidays! The ladies at the table have been creating beautiful pieces of jewelry with their beads, and I have a few planned for mine.
I also went shopping for new beads today and will have a new selection of beads in the shop this week. It was so much fun to go shopping for new items again; can't wait to do it again soon.
The shop is open many Mondays now as well as Thursday evenings. Just call to check on classes or activities planned. Let's get beading!

About Me

- I've always loved jewelry and sparkly things, so when my life took a change I began considering my own shop. I started Highstrung Beads in January of 2003 and it is still going strong. The shop is now at it's third location and better than ever. I try to keep a selection of unusual items, pendants, and lots of gemstone as well as the standard bead items. I wish I could have even more beads in the shop, just like other bead lovers, there is never enough!!
