Here is the second set of pictures to show everyone the awesome items our wonderful supporters and friends have sent us for our silent auction!

Alice's Bead Release

10 lbs of bead release

This picture is not all, there will be a couple more jars.

These are split into 20oz containers

Zoozii's

One (1) Button and Cabachon Mandrel set

Two (2) $50.00 gift certificates

More to come!

So we finally have pictures to show off our auction items thus far. We wanted to post pictures as we received items so no one was pushed to the bottom and got lost in the shuffle. Since we have items in from several vendors, we will post 2 or 3 at a time because every one of our auction contributors is just as important as the next and deserves a little time in the spotlight! These are in the order they were received (as close as possible).

ABR Imagery

Sample bundle of Kuglar 104

8" Tungsten tweezers

CG Beads

Special Edition Ribbed Sampler

Two (2) Aluminum frit trays

More to come...

Auction fast approching

Well, it seems like just yesterday we were saying the auction is several months away. Well, that has changed. It is creeping up fast. May 20th is just 63 days away. We have got some great vendors supporting us again this year and it looks to be a very exciting auction. We are hoping to get a few pictures up this week.
This years auction will be held at the Westador Subdivision Clubhouse again. It is located at 17715 Cali Drive, Houston, TX 77090. We look forward to seeing you all there.
Don't forget to take a look around your studio and donate those unused tools, books, presses, glass and other misc. items that are just gathering dust. Surely there is a Houston Hottie who could find a use for it and in the process raise some money for our group.
