Happy Wing! The Wing 2012 newsletter is available for printing from our website. (Please see the link at the bottom of this page.) There will be some b/w copies available for pick up in the store.  It is important that not only we have your correct e-mail but also that our e-mail address be put on your allowed list. I don’t want you to miss out on monthly updates and specials that will be communicated to you via e-mail.

Check the events section and the website for special happenings at the store. We had several wonderful trunk shows last season. Many of our events this season are trunk shows. It has come to my attention that we have not done a very good job conveying to you just what a trunk show is. During a trunk show, a vendor or bead artist sends or brings a wide assortment of their products or work, much more than we can stock in the store. This allows you to have a much broader and larger assortment of merchandise from which to choose and perhaps the opportunity to meet the artist who created the bead you just love! Trunk shows are held for 1-2 days, usually over a weekend. At the conclusion, the remaining merchandise is returned to the vendor or the artist packs up and goes home. The events for Wing are on the front page of the newsletter.

Wing welcomes many returning guest teachers as well as some new faces. Please make sure you check your schedule so you will get the classes you want. The teachers come infrequently, and the class offerings are not usually repeated so if you have an interest in a class make sure you schedule to take it. If there is a prerequisite, take it and if you need help in that department, remember we offer private classes. Anything is possible!

If you haven’t visited us in the last few months, we are bursting with “NEW”. We have more pearls, semi-precious, plated chain in matte gold, Swarovski crystal chain, size 15 charlottes, twin beads, peanut beads, charms, colored wire, plated chain and much more. Remember to check on the website for the current coupons when you come shopping. Visit the home page and click on coupons in the upper right corner or at the bottom of the page. Remember to “refresh” your page at the beginning of each month to get the latest coupons.

Visit Just In and keep posted on our ever expanding beads, books, and supplies. We offer glass beads, seed beads, crystals, semi-precious, and have a great selection of findings for the latest jewelry designs. If you can't make it to the store; we come to you - we ship!

There are more cruises on the horizon with Huib Petersen and Nancy Cain. Looking ahead to 2013, 2014...
