It’s the Semi Annual, Semi Precious Bead Sale!!! What a great deal! 15% off all regularly priced Semi Precious Beads until June 10th. That’s in addition to any other discounts you may be entitled to. The savings are really big! To take advantage of this sale, simply write the words "Semi Sale" in the comment section during checkout.
Dichroic Pendants The photo to the right is of the "one of a kind" glass work of the local Charlotte, North Carolina artist - Audra Goetz of Pane in the Glass Studio. We are fortunate to be able to have several of her dichroic glass pendants available for sale. You can view these items in the One of a Kind section of this JB. Audra makes all kinds of dichroic glass items, jewelry and glass paintings. She is a talented lady, indeed!

News and Announcements - We have added a new section to the Closeouts. Check out the new subcatagory Last Chance Items (only one left)! These are items that we only have One Left! Not sure when, or if we will ever get these bead items back in stock again, so get them while you can. It’s not that we don’t love these items, but they have sold down to a lonely one and we need to make room for more new goodies. Here is another exciting closeout for you - Lazor Cut Copper Beads! Available in the Other Goodies section of the Closeouts. These copper beads will tarnish as raw copper does. We are partial to the look of the copper as it tarnishes. They have a wonderful brassy appearance that looks very nice with our vintage chains. Priced at $0.30 per gram - its a steal!

New Arrivals - What’s new? New Turquoise Clasps in different shapes and sizes. More new, old stuff! More vintage chain, vintage findings to go with the chain in brass as well as some vintage rhinestone clasps and other unusual vintage findings, vintage beads - vintage Czech, vintage Swarovski, vintage Japan, vintage lucite & plastic & vintage metal beads too. Large shipments of contemporary Swarovski Crystal have come in as well. We are putting more new arrivals up every day so. . . . check them out. We have also added more Sterling Silver Closeout Clasp Lots since they sold so fast. At these prices, our Closeout Clasp Lots are hard to pass up.

FYI - This addition of the JB has more items that ever presented before! Enjoy them because Kelly is exhausted from photographing all of them . . . .As for the jabber blabber offerings. . . . . Those of you that have been receiving this fun newsletter have checked out the specials before reading our news already. For those of you that are new, check them out and get them while you can. Its on the same first come, first serve fashion. We hope you enjoy this addition of the jabber blabber specials

Please remember to support your local bead shop because they make the world a better place to bead.

Enjoy the day and thank you for your continued support!

Be safe,

Suzanne and the rest of the A Grain of Sand Family
