15 years and counting

Greetings fellow beaders,

I am happy to report that we have offically made it to our 15th Anniversary here at Beads Forever.

The annual Hawthorne Street Fair kicked off the festivities. We invited the kids from Scion Cars to come

and display some of the latest economy models. They had lots of goodies to give away and added a touch of fun.

In addition we had the folks from The Portland Master Recyclers Program in attendance too. They had hand out for those who wanted to end junk mail

and recycled bags to give away.
