December 29, 2007 Happy New Year 2008 To my customers and friends, Thank you for all the support, encouragement, help with shows, new ideas, loyalty and business you gave me in 2007!  How could my business thrive without all of you helping me in so many ways. There just are not enough words to properly convey my thanks and appreciation!  I will keep trying to find these words for many years to come.  I enjoy what I'm doing so much and having many of you by my side makes it even better!!!  I need to have "sounding boards" that I can bounce ideas and concerns off of.....so many times you were that person.  My goal is striving for perfection in new styles, better beads, better methods of construction and pleasing the customers.  I always welcome your input! I am adding new products for spring and working on a "Spring Fling for Shopping" the weekend before Mother's Day. It will be held at the Comfort Suites in Marion. This will be the premiere opportunity for spring shopping!  The occasions for this time of year include Mother's Day gifts, weddings, graduations, first communions, baptisms, retirements, gardening and picnics.   The exact dates are May 2,3,4-2008. More information will follow as the dates grow closer. If you missed the Holiday show I hope you can make this one! Have a safe New Year's Eve and a happy, healthy New Year all year long.  You are in my thoughts and prayers often. Please stay in touch, I love to hear from you!
