News and Stuff
Bead Show Results
Last week I went to a bead show given by one of my regular vendors.  I went with my list of customer requests, and did okay, but not great, unfortunately.  The show was mainly gemstone beads, so those who asked for certain types of glass and/or acrylic beads are sadly going to have to continue looking, but I did manage to get a few gemstone items for those who are looking for them.  New arrivals will include Citrine Bricks, Smoky Quartz Points, and big huge Garnet Round beads that you have to see to believe.  I will try to get these listed as soon as possible.
 
 
Fortnightly Sale
Dollar Off Clear Quartz!
Everyone needs a little magic, especially this week.  With the election coming up, the country is divided, and each side could use some magic, as the Kerry supporters worry that the war will continue indefinitely, ending thousands of innocent lives and plunging our country into financial ruin, while Bush supporters worry that we will show the world our throats, resulting in more attacks on our soil.  Through the ages mystics have used Clear Quartz to aid in magic wishes, and there's no better time for wishing than now!  So this week, all beads, pendants, and chip bottles made from Clear Quartz are a dollar off.  Enjoy this wonderful, clarifying, and "magic" gemstone.
 
You can shop on eBay,
Or see a larger selection on Ephemerala Online:
Dollar Off Clear Quartz Sale is good through November 14, 2004.
 
Penny Sale
Every two weeks, I hide a new special offer somewhere on my online site.  This listing will offer a certain product for ONE CENT, with any purchase of $10.00 or more.  The item and its location will change every two weeks, so be sure to look often.  Simply go to my online store site:
and browse until you find the hidden listing.  Add it to your cart, along with the rest of your $10+ order, and it will be included for just a penny.  Happy Hunting!
(Recent keen-eyed customers got a bag of LEPIDOLITE CHIP BEADS for a penny.  What will you be able to get this week?)
 
 
Insider's Special
Free Surprise Gift
This week, with every single order you place (even the ones of less than the usual $10.00), I will include a Free Surprise Gift.  This gift is going to be totally random, so it will be a real surprise when you open the package.  All I ask is that you make a note of your special subscriber status when paying, so that I will know to enclose your freebie.
Free Surprise Gift Offer is good through November 14, 2004.
