ISGB needs your beads please!

[dogmaw]

We are having the annual silent auction at the Gathering this year, and we are short of beads. So I'm begging on bended knee... please send one of your beads to:

Patty Rees
834 1/2 Fourth Street
Woodland, CA 95695

You may ask why in the world ISGB would need your bead. Well, we use things such as the Silent Auction, the Live Auction, and the bottle stopper contest to raise money so we can keep membership costs low. We try and keep things like the Gathering and membership fees as low as we possibly can, while providing you with the most services we can. So please, send your bead (or beads if you want :)) to Patty by the end of July. Have any questions? Just give me a holler!

Are these only loose beads or do you want lampwork focal jewelry? Karen

[dogmaw]

Karen,

Either would be wonderful! Anything you care do donate would be greatly appreciated. Have you seen our new educational brochure on buying lampwork beads? http://www.isgb.org/store/catalogs.htm

[dogmaw]

Thanks Kimberly! I always love fondling your beads.:D

[zen-mom]

I'll pop one in the mail today. What day is the auction on?

[dogmaw]

It is on Friday this time. We figured that way people doing the bead bazaar could participate too!

[rosebud101]

I'll try to get some out this week. Is that okay?

[dogmaw]

That would be super Mallory!

[nagibeads]

Can they be any style or is there a particular theme?
thanks!

[Lara]

Sent mine yesterday. WOO HOO

[rosebud101]

Mine are on their way, too!

[dogmaw]

No theme at all! Just whatever you feel comfortable sending. We are grateful for any and all donations!

[nagibeads]

yahoo--thank you Jo!

[zen-mom]

OKay, so I didn't pop one in the mail back on the 13th... but I just went and put one in the box... :) Now, we'll see if it makes ya'll some money.

[Jackie]

Okay so I totally forgot. I will pop one in the mail this weekend.

Is there a list of donators somewhere? I just want to make sure mine made it to where it was supposed to go.

[dogmaw]

I'm afraid I don't have a list of donors. But you can email Patty at SpiderLvr41 at aol dot com and ask if she got it. All of the beads are sent to her.

And remember, you can bring your beads to the gathering instead of mailing them. :D

Yay! She got mine :) I didn't ask if she thought it was worthy though 8-[
