Beaders" Night Out is coming

Happy Holidays from Newbury Park!
We have celebrated Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, and the beginning of Advent in the last 4 days. Wow!

This week the bead stores in out association will be hosting Beaders' Night Out. Most of the store will be holding the event Friday, December 5 from 5-8 p.m. This event is sponsored by Craft Fantastic. Please check with your local bead store for the exact time there.
At Creative Castle you can sign up for 4 different times: 5, 5:45, 6:30 and 7:15. This event is free for the first 20 people and $6.00 for any additional participants.Reservations are suggested but not required. We will be serving refreshments and there will be special pricing on this jewelry line from Craft Fantastic during the evening. Get an early start on quick and easy gifts.

For those of you wanting to make other quick last minute gifts but aren't quite sure how, we have a Beading Basics class, Thursday, December 5 from 6-9 p.m. Want to make a quick pair of earrings and learn how to "set" that special stone, Sunday, December 8, from 12:30-4:30 p.m. we offer All Things Wired.
 We also offer Traditional Knotting with a Contemporary Twist Thursday, December 12 from 6-9 p.m.
 Please call 805-499-1377 to register. We are also having a Trunk Show of Lampwork beads, Fused Glass and Metal Clay pendants Saturday, December 7 from 10 a.m.-5 p.m. A Trunk Show is when an artist brings or sends a large selection of his/her work for a set period of time. This allows our customers a chance to select from a much larger assortment of merchandise that what the store can carry due to space and cost. What doesn't sell during the trunk show goes home with the artist. So come shop for that special gift for the beader in your life, or for the focal point of your next project or holiday gift from a fabulous assortment of merchandise.

Our new newsletter of classes and events for "Wing" is on our website. We only have 3 seasons at Creative Castle "Wing" (winter-spring), "Sprummer" (spring-summer) and "Finter" (fall-winter). We also have some copies available at the store for your convenience.

Thank you for supporting your local bead store. This allows us to do what we love, while helping you to do what you love.

Wishing you peace and joy during this holiday season.
