Back to Basics Classes in August

Beat the heat by beading in our Back to Basics Classes we’ve got coming up in August!

We finally brought back our Pearl Knotting class with a new teacher, Haleigh! For now, her class will be every THIRD Sunday from 1-3pm for $35 per student. Also, just a reminder that you can bring any beads to this knotting class, you don’t have to use pearls!

If knotting isn’t your thing, we have our regular Intro to Jewelry, Intro to Wire Wrapping, and Intro to Peyote Stitch – great for beginners or beaders that need a refresher!

 

Open until 7:00 PM Monday-Friday, 11-5 Saturday and 12-5 Sunday!

We are so happy to have the store stay open until 7pm, Monday through Friday! 
We will continue to open at 11 am, and Saturday and Sunday hours will remain the same.  Hours for the entire week are:

Monday – Friday 11-7 pm      Saturday 11-5 pm      Sundays 12-5 pm

All of us at Sea of Beads want to reach out to our valued customers during this difficult time and inform everyone that we are taking the necessary precautions to help stop the spread of the coronavirus.

Rest assured that we are practicing the recommended social distancing. Not only are we strictly enforcing the 10 person maximum in the store, we also require that all employees and customers wear masks.  We are requiring each person to disinfect their hands upon entering the store, and are cleaning the store multiple times during the day.

We now have all the Delica colors in size 11/0 in stock. We are slowly adding them to our Etsy store, (seaofbeadstx), AND to the store wall. If you don’t see the color that you need, please ask, and we will weigh out the color for you.

We are a locally owned and operated family business.  We thank you so much for your support through thick and thin. This too shall pass.

Sincerely,
Sea of Beads Staff, Greg, Courtney, Alequah, Shawn, and Terry

  2. Have your credit card ready for payment over the phone; Venmo (optional)
  3. If you have a loyalty card, please have that out and ready to read the 16 digit number for us to apply your points.
