Howdy Ya'll
I worked on my display boards yesterday for my upcoming show..i knew if I didn't do it when I felt like it, I'd be jammed up down the road...plus we've had a new A/C installed, new ducting, blah blah and that was being finished yesterday...Our 50 yr old house has been retrofitted and not always in the best way, so we've had to put the A/C in properly...but its all done and today is a good day to make beads...
The pic shown is a recent order I completed and sent away to its new owner...If you ever see a set in my Gallery that you're interested in, you can always email me and we could work something out...While I'm not taking orders from my catalog, I do entertain requests from the Gallery...I'll put this up in an FAQ page that I've been working on...if you have ideas for the FAQ, email and tell me!

I would be curious to see your display boards. I am going to be in 3 Holiday Shows selling my jewelry (some with your beads). I have to work on my displays and could use some ideas.

Oh, you can see my entire setup on the Shows page...

it works well for strands of beads - the boards are easy to transport and vertical so they dont't take a lot of table space...

I would love to know if you are planning on attending the Bead Show in PA in October as I plan on doing some major shopping there and would love to hit your stand! :)

Hi !
I have an idea that just might work for everyone's displays....French Memory Boards. they are fabric covered boards with pretty ribbons designed to hold notes, photos, etc. I have seen them at places like Kohls and they are not expensive. You could probably stand them on a small easel. I think they would be eye catching. Hang the earrings from the ribbon, loop bracelets around the ribbond, etc.. Just a thought!!! Good Luck.

kat, i would love to attend the Beadfest, mostly as a buyer, but alas I won't be there. I am taking 2 classes in Oct and teaching one here in Austin, so my schedule isn't good this year..maybe next!

Are you planning to be a vendor at any shows this year? Would be nice if it were listed under FAQ or Shows. Thanks!
