And as always, bring your latest bead project or treasure to the meeting to show and tell the rest of us about.

AND DON'T FORGET THE BEAD JAR

What is the bead jar? The bead jar is a collection of odds and ends (beads) collected from all of our members and raffled off once a year. You never know what you will find - one person's trash is another persons treasure!
