Our NEW "Tiny Shop"

I retired Retail as I myself Retired. The business is now very casual and is focused on - Teaching/Repair/Kit Design

The Shop's emphasis is "Off-Loom" Stitching and Textile Stitch Embellishment.

NO WORRIES: WE HAVE WONDERFUL LEATHER STRANDING KITS FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT WANT TO USE A NEEDLE. Our young visitors and adults all engage with these kits and have a sense of accomplishment when they leave.

We moved to a smaller space in our same building.

Glass Garden Beads and Brigg Evans Textile Design is now a "Tiny Shop". We changed from a retail business to a service business, offering design, repair, classes, teaching and our online marketing of bead and textile kits. You will be able to access us in the Lower Level in the 318 Central Ave. Bachrach Building via the stairs or elevator. We are still in the same building just downstairs.

GROUPS: YES limited to 6 seats. / Just give me a call and reserve the space and pick out the project you want to do. 507-330-1367

TABLE TIME? We have a punch card system. The punch card allows you time at the table during posted shopping hours.  10 punches for $25, 5 punches for $15 (OR) If you just want to drop in and be with a friend for the day to chat and bead the cost is $5 per person.  Always call ahead to make sure a chair is available. 507-330-1367.  The table time fee is $2.50 if you are a group doing just a simple project and you are in the space 1 to 1.5 hours.

TEACHING: Private Help is available at $10/ hr and I sit with you and we go step by step. If I do a formal Class the teaching fee is figured also at $10/hr.

No TEACHING FEE for Kids Groups or Simple Kit Adult groups where the time spent with me is less than 2 hrs.

REPAIRS: I normally try to convince you to do your own re-stranding and I'll help you with the finishing. If that does not work for you, I'll look at your piece and give you an estimate. My rate is $20/hr plus all the supplies.

GIFT CERTIFICATES: All prior gift certificates will be honored and are still available. Gift a private class, Gift some group time...I'll help you find a way to use the Gift Certificate.

An average estimate is $30, this includes the crochet hook/ S-Lon Thread / Beads / Needles / Fireline / Weight Bead / Safety Pin / Rubber Band.  NOTE: Prior to the class students will need to pick up the supplies because it is important to start the class with all the beads stranded on the S-Lon thread.

Interesting Groups for Beaders to check out:

Upper Midwest Bead Society Calendar:  The group is a great social group and now with covid have still remained active with its members by presenting interesting virtual meeting opportunities. Fun topics. Feel free to check them out. I really started to get involved with their meetings so I'm looking forward to return to that close and in-person time. They are a great group with always interesting topics.

If you are in the Rochester Area, here is another group I'd like to check out. The Beader's Society of Southeast MN.

LOOSE BEAD SOCIETY OF GREATER MILWAUKEE: Beaders are happy interesting people. Why? They love what they do and they come from all vocations with a artist flair! So true for this group!
