Tucson Recap: 2020 Adventure & More

Did you see us in Tucson! We had a blast getting to meet everyone and creating with our new beady friends. Our first stop in Tucson was the Beadalon booth at the To Bead True Blue show. Beadalon showed off a bunch of cool new things including new multi-colored wire. We even got a quick tutorial from Sara Ellis using this new wire to wire-wrap a cool pair of earrings:

Our next stop was the Tohono Chul Garden Bistro for our JJB Tucson Experience event featuring Beadalon and our friends over at Beads of Courage. We got to meet a bunch of new beaders and enjoyed jewelry making classes with Sara Ellis, a delicious lunch at the Garden Bistro, awesome swag and more. Thank you to all our beaders who came to spend the day with us. If you missed us in Tucson stay tuned, we may have another trip planned for the Summer (wink, wink). Here's a little live we did to show you the action:

We took a break on our Tucson adventure to unbox the January 2020 Magical Mystery Bead Box. This box was full of Hygge fun, the perfect box to help our subscribers get cozy and enjoy the cold days of winter. Sarah peeked, but Sara Ellis got to be surprised by all the box's contents:

Our last stop on our Tucson trip was the Beads Of Courage event. We got to spend an evening creating jewelry and supporting Beads Of Courage, and organization the helps children with terminal illnesses tell their stories through beads. Beads Of Courage is an organization that's close to our hearts here at JJB and we were happy to be able to support them with this event.
