Welcome Cindi Booth!

cindiwebArgenta Bead Company has a new (well kinda) Beadchick.  Cindi Booth has been a BBB (Brown Bag Beader) on Mondays for the past 2 years.  Cindi is the queen of seed beads for the BBB group and now we’re promoting her to queen of seed beads at Argenta Bead Company.  Cindi is organizing, ordering and all round managing the seed bead section.  She’s looking at all the sizes and colors avaialble and sorting out what’s the best selection for you.  She just started this week and already has a first order to make.  We can’t wait for you to see the new set-up Cindi’s coming up with.  Giver her a couple of weeks and stop by to see the new seed bead digs.  Also if you have any special requests, suggestions or comments just send her an email:  cindi@argentabead.com
