The Beading Tree's photostream

After 20 years in retail management, I was no longer able to work and needed something to fill my time, as my children are grown. I fell in love with making jewelry while watching many reruns of the Carol Duval show, but quickly realized that my hands simply couldn't hold on to the tools-of-the-trade any longer.

So I decided to use my retail contacts along with my knowledge of what crafters need most and started selling shipping supplies and plastic bags. I'm also in the process of de-stashing my leftover jewelry supplies, so check my store often to see what's newly available.

I'm also available to help anyone who is new to shipping, or just needs a little help. You can also check out my blog for shipping tutorials, hints and tips: thebeadingtree.blogspot.com/
