Beadless Kits and Great Sale!


Beginning Monday April 20, Buy the Kit will be launching the Beadless Kit (aka patterns) section of the site. Several of our designers will have patterns for sale of kitted projects and patterns for new projects. Check back often to see the newest additions in both kits AND patterns! Beading supplies will soon be available as well.And, to celebrate the opening of the new Beadless Kit section, Buy the Kit will be offering a 20% discount on selected kits. To see which designers are participating, look for the star on their individual pages, right next to their name. We will also take care of the postage; domestic orders only. Now that's incentive! LOL!
The picture is of a beautiful bracelet by Cindy Allison. This kit has been retired. Watch for the pattern! Take a look at her beautiful kits.
We have added a couple of new designers who have added some nice new designs. Take a look at Lanai Kinsky and Cristie Prince. More coming from them!

Hope you all are having a great spring!

Spring has sprung




And I've got so many ideas I can hardly sleep! Just need to stop beading long enough to write up some instructions! Here are a couple of new bracelets I've been working on.



Also taking a little time out to work in the yard and do a tiny bit of spring cleaning. Do you hate dusting as much as I do? And why did I think collecting cut glass in a state where dust is the main component of everything was a good idea? And I just got more off of ebay! Gads!


But, back to beading LOL!


Progress is being made at Buy the Kit to give you the ability to purchase and eventually download patterns! And, we're gathering some really nice ones! The web team is doing bang up job. I can't wait! We're also going to have a section where you can find odds and ends and extra stuff. I found some really pretty leaves and I have some sets of fruit beads...vintage cabs anyone? I've got a few kilos...it's finally occurred to me that I will NOT be able to use them all.




I hope everybody is having a wonderful spring and beading to your heart's content.




sloppy smooches!
