And back down to earth....

Well here we are a week later.

The NEC was brilliant and we had a great time. Thanks to all of the people that came to visit us and those of you that haven't been to the shop yet thanks for taking the time to stand and talk with us - we very much look forward to seeing you soon.

I think the best part was when people realised we are only 45 minutes from the NEC so not that far at all, for those of you that visit us already you will know that we will put the kettle on and make a brew if you want one so if you want an afternoon out then you will get a drink too.

As you may know it was the "Bee Crafty" product we were launching, the paper blooms, chipboard shapes, buttons and a few other items.

These are available on our website and if you would rather talk to someone on the phone that is always an option - we really are here to help in whatever way we can.

I'll leave it there for today and get you some pictures of the stand for next time!

November already!!!!

Hey everyone

How are you all - well I trust!

So who's got all the Christmas Cards made and ready to send? As I have posted before we have a great Christmas section on the website very easily accessible from the home page. There is a link at the top on the list to the left on the Bee Crafty Home Page!

Now Its a fresh month for the Bee Crafty Bag Competition and the winners of last month will be announced and posted on the blog in the next few days.

We are currently in the process of doing a new workshop list for the coming months, if there is anything you want to do that's not on the list why not get in touch and we will do everything possible to accommodate your requirements. Also remember if you book a specific workshop the more of you that come the better so why not bring a friend to make it more enjoyable!

As I have mentioned we are exhibiting at the NEC this coming week but the shop is open also so if you have made it to the show you're only half an hour away from the shop!

58 sleeps............

Until Christmas!!!!!!

So as you can tell I am very excited about the annual visit from the chap in the big red suit with the beard. I think its a brilliant time of year to get one off pictures (thank goodness we don't have to do it every Sunday). As crafters what we can to with this opportunity is capture the mood and excitement of the day and use it for scrapbooking.

Here at Bee Crafty we have some magical Christmas Items in at the moment and all of this perfect for scrapping the time we spend together over the festive season - however you celebrate that time of year.

You will find all of our Christmas products here

As some of you will know we are Exhibiting at the NEC show this November from Thursday 5th to Sunday the 8th. What I want to remind you though is that THE SHOP IS STILL OPEN our normal wintertime opening hours on all of these days (closed on the sunday).

And further to that we are OPEN THIS SUNDAY 1st NOVEMBER it is the first Sunday of the month and our monthly scrapbooking crop!!

So what else is there.............

....... Chipboard!!!

But I'll start with a hello!!!!

So who like a bit of chipboard? I know i do and I also think that its a material that we can use easily, economically because it doesn't cost much and can also make each item individual so cracking for presents for those people who are impossible to buy for!

So first up then - door hangers

So as you can see there are the fishy shape - ideal for the "gone fishing" door hanger or just the deep sea bedroom doors. The plain shape which is just suitable for all ages, then lastly the arrow (which could also be used as a rocket?) These are great quality and at just 30p each - you could make these for everyone!!! To find them on the website click here

And who likes mask?

Well for those of you going to parties masked balls this winter what could be better than your very own design of mask. They also make great accessories in bedrooms etc. Or how about party fun for the kids - decorating these to take home!!! Just 99p each and can be found here on the website.

I'll have a go at finding some piccies of these decorated for some inspiration.

Hoping your all well and just a week left to get your entries in for Octobers bag competition.
