[NFB-Krafters-Korner] upcoming classes

[Bernice Bird]

Hi Joyce,
I have a couple of thoughts. First, I like to buy my supplies. There is a
great craft store near me. Second, quite often I like to choose my own
colors of beads, so buying them locally is good for that. Also, if I am
successful, I quite often want to make more than one of a project, and if I
buy small bags locally it gives me that option. I found using a regular
business envelope, and putting just one layer of tiny bubble wrap or thin
piece of foam gets the beads and safety pins through the mail at the
envelope rate. The regular business envelope would probably only take 2
stamps.
I love doing pin and bead projects. What is your first class?
  Thanks for offering your classes.
Bernice

I just want your opinions regarding some of the classes that I am planning.

 

I will be doing the small beads and safety pins and wanted your thoughts.
For my first 3 classes I have purchased the pins and the seed beads needed.I
was going to suggest if you just wanted the safety pins to send my a self
addresses envelop and $1.  If you want the safety pins and the seed beads I
would ask you to do the self addressed and put $2/.  The only issue I have
is if you use a regular envelop I don't know if they will have any problems
that it is not a padded envelop?!?

 

I will be using the small ziplock bags to put the pins & one bag for each
color of beads counted out with a Braille for the colors.

 

I was checking on postage and if I was to put them in a padded or maybe
heavier envelop the shipping is outrageously high.

 

 

 

So let me know what your thoughts are and I will let you know.  My first
class will be January 19, so I ame looking to get them in the mail by the
end of this year.
