Bracelet Demo 8/30!

So, I got an email from someone at the Bead Corner Academy informing me that a demo was scheduled at my store. I assume all instructors get similar ones so I dunno if it's in all Michaels locations or just mine. What I can tell you is that I will be doing this demo! :D

Location: Michaels (808 Columbus Ave.)

Date & Time: Tuesday, August 30th @ 6pm

The demo involves showing how to make a memory wire bangle and informing people on what they can learn when they sign up for a class. The photo below is an example of what I'd be doing that night. It's a 1-hour demo and I know it's after work but I hope that some of you will be able to make it :)
