Dear Friends and Customers,

We regret to announce that Modern Bead is going out of business. 

We would like to sincerely thank all of you for your business and friendship throughout the last several months.  While it is disappointing to have to close so shortly after we opened, the experience has been positive in many ways.  We had the opportunity to make a vision into a reality, to meet hundreds of wonderful people, and to learn more than we could have imagined about ourselves, about business, and about all that is possible with determination and hard work.  We are proud of what we accomplished and believe that while Modern Bead as a retail establishment wasn't able to survive its circumstances, it was a success simply because of the many customers who have been able to gain from the inventory, classes, parties and services that we offered. 

We are closed on Monday for Labor Day but beginning on Tuesday 9/2 every piece of merchandise in the store is 40% off.  Inventory will move quickly at these prices so if you want an opportunity to get your pick of the best items, come quickly!  When it's gone, it's gone, and our doors will be closed.  This is your opportunity to stock up on Swarovski crystal, stone, glass and seed beads, findings, tools and materials at the lowest possible prices.  Come get everything you need to make your holiday gifts and fill out your collection!

Fixtures and displays will also be marked for sale.  Included in the items for sale will be all of our tables, chairs, room dividers, shelves, display cases, trays, slatwall hooks and shelves, a microwave, a mini-fridge, a desk and much more.  We have been in business for less than one year; most of these items are nearly new.

Please note that once our merchandise is gone and our doors are closed, gift certificates will no longer be redeemable.  All sales are FINAL and we are no longer able to accept returns at this time.  No further classes or parties will be scheduled and no additional custom requests can be filled at this time.

We would again like to thank you all for your patronage and support over the last several months.  Your business as we close the store will be appreciated more than ever as it will help us to settle our obligations so that we may move forward with whatever comes next in our lives as easily as possible.  We hope to see you in the coming days to say farewell.

Sincerely,

Shannon McCarthy and Troy Baumann
