The U shape counter was installed on last Sunday, I like it

Well, to maintain the cleanliness and comfort of beaders, we practice No Shoes Policy. You can sit down on the floor to review what you have in your basket before proceed to payment. I’m sure walking with your bare foot is more comfortable than with shoes.

Tools, stringing materials and craft wires corner.

Some glass beads, in small quantity packaging and by strands.

Quite a few beaders asked me where to get this revolving products display unit with white baskets. They wish to apply this concept in their kitchen to fill up those baskets with tomatoes, garlic, onion…etc We got the white baskets from 100 yen shop (RM4.90 each), and you can get those similar revolving display unit from those shops selling racks like http://smartrack.com.my/.

This area is reserved for Jewelry Making workshops. We will be cleaning it up asap so that we could arrange the first workshop latest by end of November. Are you ready to become a teacher? Drop me an email to discuss about it -> sales at beading dot com dot my

Ok, we charge RM39.00/year. We want to attract more beaders to join, therefore current price is the lowest you can get.

Sounds too good to believe? Hang on, we have decided to throw in the following non-guaranteed benefits:

4. Priority given to members to join the workshop organised by Beading.com.my in collaboration with Swarovski Inc, and at discounted rate (if any). We are in the midst of discussing the possibility of arranging a workshop conducted by Swarovski’s In-House Austrian Teacher.

We will set up a corner to display those books for members to review before purchase / to get inspiration. If you like the book, please support the authors. Strictly do not record the contents of the books using any media like camera, handphone…etc. Violating the rules will cause us to withdraw this benefit at anytime.

Do you like the idea of Beads Buddy Club Membership? Mind to share with us your suggestions/ideas?

1) The airconds were installed but there were water leakage. It took the contractor 3 working days just to get 3 unit of airconds up and running well. What a poor workmanship.

2) I was being too optimistic that I thought we can put all products up in one full day. I didn’t aware that to put the products up on racks is more difficult than to take off from racks. How silly am I.

Therefore we are not able to process any online orders within this few days. But rest assure that we will process and ship your orders either on next Monday or Tuesday.

Perhaps the only good news is, Yes, we are able to open our store on 17th Oct (Sat). You may like to drop by to get something from our new store.

The other reason why things are running slow is we have to restore our previous store at BTS to its original position.

Our previous store is emptied! Bye bye to Berjaya Times Square.

Just a reminders (I’m sorry if you have seen these for 5 times):

1) Our new store is open for walk-in during Weekends Only, from 9:30am – 6:30pm

2) We accept Cash Only. There is no credit card billing facility.

See you on 17th!

We still need few more days to resume our business to normal.

Laminated floor was fixed today and Airconds will be installed on 11th Oct.

All goods are packed and ready to move to new store on 12th Oct. We need at least 1 full day to unpack all products and display them onto the racks.

Hopefully we are able to process your orders on 13th/14th. See you on 17th at our new store ya?
