Sad News

I'm sorry to announce that we have decided to disband the Mavens.
Priorities of the members have changed and we feel that rather than keep replacing people we'll just go back to our individual blogs and stores.


We'll keep the links up to our stores and will put up links to our individual blogs where I'm sure we'll all be active in the areas we feel we need to be right now. The free tutorials will remain in the archives :)


We all thank you tremendously for the support, friendship and input and hope you will follow us all in our individual endeavors.

  6. Thanks Jacquie. I think this blog will probably be closed but I will put all the tutorials I wrote (9 of the 19) onto my blog so they can be accessed there...just may take a week or two for me to pick myself up. TheBeadedCarpet.blogspot.com

  7. Sad news, indeed. A post from the Mavens was always a top read, and a Mavens challenge was a must-see event. We will just have to follow each of you individually. Thanks for being a source of inspiration for all of us!

  10. Boo hoo :-( Sorry to read the sad news. I actually added this blog to my RSS feed in my email inbox, b/c I don't get a chance to check in w/Google all the time to catch up on all my blog subscriptions. I add the blogs I care about most to my RSS feed. Oh well.....things change.... life goes on. I wish you gals all the best in your future endeavors. Thanks so much for being a part of my bead world. Take care and bead happy! :-) ~ Carol
