The Studio is Open!

Yesterday was the first official day of the studio being open!! Thanks to everyone who came down to check it out. The retail section is all set up, and Monday the propane is being hooked up! We're hoping to be making beads at the studio Monday night.

As soon as the torches are hooked up, classes will be available! You can sign up on our website or at the studio.



A new line of glass pendants was also recently added to the Your Community Fundraisers website!



Here is their mission statement:
"The mission of Your Community Fundraisers is to provide a better experience for fundraising organizations and their supporters. We accomplish this by offering beautiful, high quality, locally produced goods and services to people supporting the fundraiser. Products will be sold directly on our website to alleviate much of the stress associated with managing a traditional fundraising campaign.

Furthermore we strongly believe that keeping the money circulating within the community will strengthen the local economy. This all works to create a win-win situation for fundraisers, their supporters, and the entire community."



The studio is open today as well, so feel free to come over! Here are the new retail hours:
Monday: appointment only
Tuesday: 12-5:30
Wednesday: appointment only
Thursday: 12-5:30
Friday: 12-5:30

The propane tank is being set up tomorrow morning at the studio! Yay! We're drilling the table tops on Friday night and setting up the torches. The retail section is also coming along! We're thinking that the studio will officially be open starting September 11&12th weekend, so we'll keep you updated! Now, time for some bead pics!

Lots of Beads!

Hey everyone!

The studio is ALMOST complete! We just have to get the propane tank set on Friday, get the studio inspected, and that's it! :) In the meantime, here's a bunch of beads to look at! We've both been torching like crazy!



Most of these beads will be available for sale in the retail section of the studio. We will also have necklaces, pendants, and earrings. Ornaments are also in the works for the holidays!
