SO GRATEFUL! "ETSY SALE"

I've been so busy lately with my "open to the public" studio that I haven't had much time to blog lately.  I've met so many wonderful customers from all over the country who have come down the last four months to get some sunshine.  This weekend I am expressing my thanks to all my wonderful customers on Etsy.  Head over to Havana Beads and take a look, everything is 15% off with coupon code "Grateful15".  Don't forget to put this code in the coupon box when you're checking out to automatically receive the discount on your order.  I'm new to the Etsy checkout system and I'm not sure if I can do reimbursement through that.  I can through Paypal but I'm not sure through Etsy Direct checkout.  If you have, send me the info. just in case someone forgets.  THANKS!  Here are some new beads listed this week.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING / SALE

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!  I've been baking now for two days and anxiously awaiting my two boys arrival today.  Happy Day!  I hope everyone has a lovely day with family and friends.  I will be having a sale this weekend at Havana Beads.  Use coupon "THANKS12" to receive a 15% discount on your entire purchase.  Make sure to type the coupon in when you see your Etsy invoice so it automatically discounts the invoice. ENJOY!

AUTUMN COLOR

I can't believe it's almost a month since my last post!  I've been so busy with special orders and getting inventory ready for the studio that time just flew by.  I also took a little road trip to Kentucky with my hubby.    When you live in South Florida every road trip is a very, very long road trip!  Anyways, most of the trip was spent in the car since this was right before hurricane Sandy and the weather turned pretty ugly on us.  On our way back we stopped in Chattanooga, Tennessee, Lookout Mountain and I saw the most amazing tree.  Please remember this is a very, very rare site for me!

Isn't this tree amazing!

Hubby caught me playing!

Some new style beads I've been making lately.

NEW GOODIES ON ETSY

I've had a busy week working on special orders for customers and trying to come up with new beads and headpins to post on Etsy.  The studio is still really slow but I think slowly people are coming down from up north for the season.  I'm trying to remember to put the name of the bead set or headpin set on the first picture of my listing.  I think this might help my customers when they request sold items from my Etsy store.  Here are some pictures.

These headpins were published in the 101 Bracelets, Necklaces and Earrings Issue this year.  My Friend Cherrie Fick from En Lalumiere made a beautiful pair of earrings with these.

This bead fits the Regaliz leather and has an oval hole.

This one is also for the Regaliz leather and has an oval hole.

WE HAVE A WINNER/NEW ON ETSY

The winner of the pair of Mouse with Little Red Bow headpins is Kym Hunter of Kym Hunter Designs.  Congratulations!  Send me your address at havanabeads@yahoo.com and I'll put these in the mail next week.

I've continued this week to create beads with a Fall influence.  I made two more headpins with the rustic leaves and some little rustic pumpkins as well.  Here are some pictures of new posts on Etsy.
