Have you looked at the Bead&Button Show Web site lately? The online catalog of classes that will be taught at the 2008 show is now available. Start making your wish list of the classes you want to take. You can search the class database by instructor’s name, technique, media, days of the week, skill level, and keyword. There’s something for everyone.

It’s not too late to ask Santa for a class registration as a Christmas gift. And maybe if you’ve been extra good this year, he’ll fund a shopping spree at the Bead Marketplace. You could drop hints to Santa’s helpers by making the show Web site your home page for the next few days.

So mark your calendar for June 1–8. Then visit BeadAndButtonShow.com for all the latest news and class information. We hope we’ll see you at the show.
