Christmas Sparkle Project

Hi, Beaders!

The presents for our community outreach project were delivered last week and a big "Thank You" goes out to everyone who participated. The excitement shown by the administrator at the battered women's shelter was awesome and I have also received a letter from her thanking everyone for the gifts.

The attached picture shows all of them so you can see how beautiful they looked.

Merry Christmas!

Christmas Party Reminder

Hi, All!

This is a reminder about our Christmas party this Saturday from 1-3 at the Westbank location, 3730 MacArthur Blvd., Agliers.

The gift exchange will be "bring a gift, get a gift", should be bead related and cost about $5.00, Also, if you can bring a dish to share, that will be nice, but is not required.

Here is a follow up concerning our Christmas Sparkle Project. We have a grand total of 30 gifts which I will be bringing to the Battered Women's Shelter as soon as I speak to the administrator tomorrow. The boxes which were made last month look beautiful and the beaded jewelry simply sparkles inside them.

I'm sending out BIG hugs to everyone who participated in this project and hope you feel a warm glow near your heart when you think about the smiles our gifts will bring to these abused families. And here's an extra hug to Vicki for all of her efforts in putting together the pretty paper and related items for the boxes!

Please plan on coming to share the Spirit of the Season this Saturday!

Jean
