Each year we look forward to the Tucson Gem and Mineral show as a prime opportunity to discover the best new products and techniques to bring to our customers! We attended several shows and exhibits to ensure we saw the finest offerings of the event. Artbeads.com also sponsored several classes by donating products and contributing some exciting giveaways and promotional items. This year, we were proud to sponsor the first ever Swarovski Sparkling Make and Takes!
