Think Fall

It's supposed to be 104 degrees here in South Texas today and here I sit trying to plan for Fall. Many of you will get wrinkled brows considering the idea of thinking about Fall right now. Maybe you just got into your bathing suit and are still trying to figure out how to handle this summer's activities. After all, it's only June. Yet, if you vend at any Fall events, it really IS time to think Fall. These shows usually start in late September and early October. If you are trying to think about filling a booth with your treasures, it's time to start.

Luckily Magpie Gemstones is ready to help us out. I'm drawn to brown and black for Fall creations and am going to grab some of the new beads in the store. Why not take a peek at the Black Tourmaline, Black Agate and the Black/Brown Agates that are available? I can visualize these will all sorts of Fall creations.

Another stone that especially caught my eye this week is an Amolite Canadian Slab Red Cabachon. It's 28mm and has FALL written all over it.

While you are busy looking at those new beads, don't forget to checkout the close out beads. This great buys go into the store and then end without notice. Different beads go into this group often and I try to keep an eye out for what's happening in that category. www.magpiegemstones.com/closeout.html

By the way, while you are congering up images of Fall jewelry, keep drinking that lemonade and wear plenty of sunscreen! Fall may be coming, but Mother Nature isn't quite ready for it.

. . . helping you plan ahead, we are Magpie Gemstones.

Don't forget that your purchase of $500 of beads, including those in the close out category, wins you 30% of your purchase. I guess it just pays to shop at Magpie Gemstones.
