May 4, 2010: crafty...and tired!

Whew! I am still worn out from the Good-Bye Panopolie party on Friday. We had a great time with yummy treats, good friends and great laughs. It wasn't a sad day at all! Thank you to everyone who came out and for all the kind words and appreciative comments.  As we all repeated so many times Friday, we just said good-bye to the physical space, not to the creativity or people or fun. We have been so fortunate to have such wonderful customers here at our stores and I look forward to many crafty years together at Ornamentea.
 
See you soon-
 
Cynthia

Tuesday-
Today is the first Try It Tuesday at Ornamentea. We've been very busy with this week's project the Antique Pearl Drops. Learn how to make a quick drop earring you'll wear almost every day. All day, every Tuesday at Ornamentea. Remember, we're open until 9:00!
 
Wednesday, May 5th
Our store will be closed all day on Wednesday, Cinco De Mayo, for Staff Training. Please celebrate wisely. I recommend the tacos al Pastor and a nice, iced Horchata at Chubby's Tacos.

Thursday
Join us on Thursday night at Ornamentea for Technique Thursday. This week you can make the Roman Chariot Pendant for just $3. You'll learn to create fringe from chain-a technique that is showing up in fashion magazines more and more.
Technique Thursday is EVERY Thursday at Ornamentea from 6:30-8:30.
