Tomorrow is our fundraiser for Haiti.  I hope it doesn't snow!!!  I will be donating 10% of our regular merchandise sales to the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund. 

I am also looking forward to helping out next door tomorrow at Sweet Bytes.  They're also hosting a fundraiser for Haiti tomorrow from 9-3.  They inspired me to host our fundraiser.  Their event is breakfast ($8) and a tax-deductible donation to the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund in your name ($5) for a total $13.  I get to run the cash register!!  Woo hoo!  You can be glad I'm not cooking.  Just ask my husband. 

Hopefully we'll see you tomorrow!  It's also the last day for all of us to ogle and drool over Nancy Tobey's beautiful beads.  Boo hiss.  Have a great weekend everyone.

I hope everyone had a great holiday.  We've had a busy 2 weeks.  Between giving thanks, preparing for Black Friday, putting out new stock, and making custom order jewelry - my head has been spinning.

We got in a bunch of new and restocked pearls, semi-precious, and glass strands.  The pictures below show the semi-precious and pearls.

The jewelry I have been making was a custom order for two 48" wirewrapped 3mm rondelle necklaces.  The stones' holes selected were so small that 26 gauge and 28 gauge wire were needed to get through the stones.   The necklace on the left is sterling silver wire with apatite, smoky

Okay - so now you know the new website is up, so, what do you think?  It has taken awhile and I'm not nearly done, but I am happy with how it's coming along.  Did you ever clean a window, and the more you clean it, the more smears you see?  This whole process was sort of like that...  Yikes.

We have gotten some new inventory recently.  Some new stones, some new and restocked seed beads, sticky bead mats, the new Step by Step Wire Jewelry, and a few Thai silver restocks.

I've had a few people ask me about ordering or re-ordering some things for them for the holidays.  If I can do it, I will.  Send me an email of what you're interested in, and I'll see what I can do.  Or you can call.  Truthfully, it's easier to get me via email right now.

It has been months in the making, so I am relieved to announce that the new site is up!  Expect many new additions in the coming weeks. 

If you haven't been in lately, we've marked all clearance items down to 40% off of the marked retail price.  We've partnered with several other Ambler businesses to offer coupons good through the holidays at www.amblercoupons.com.

I am in the midst of scheduling a lot of things right now.  I would recommend checking the Events link frequently!  We have a couple of trunk shows through the end of the year - any updated info will appear on the Events link. 

Thanks again for checking in with us and stay warm!
