Now THIS is Awesome Creativity!

Here at Beverly's we know that we have creative customers, but sometimes that creativity really blows us away. Take these blankets designed and created by Rocklin customer,  Diana Hardy, for example. Her attention to detail and the accuracy of the logos is amazing!

Diana is a long time customer who purchases all her yarn at Beverly's in Rocklin to create these special sports team blankets and more. Here's what she had to say about shopping at Beverly's.

"I wanted to say thank you so much for your employees. They are the most awesome that I have found anywhere. I keep coming back because they are always smiling and make me feel important when I come in. Your store has a lifetime customer because of the way I am treated when I come in."

Diana always brings her new creations in to share with the staff in the store. And we're always excited to see what she's made!

Diana's daughters Chelsea (above) and Amanda (pictured below right with Diana) agree with us that her mom is one creative lady! She's even won awards for her blankets, like her Browning Country Girl, which was a winner in this contest.

Rocklin manager, Kim, got it right when she told us, "A picture really is worth a thousand words." While it's fun for us to hear about where the items we sell go, it's even more fun to see what they turn into once they leave our store. Thanks for sharing, Diana!

Another Great Weekend With Author Theresa Pulido

Theresa Pulido, professional crafter and author of Hook, Loop & Lock, responds to her time with us in both Rocklin and Citrus Heights over this past weekend.


Theresa Pulido writes:

"I had a great time doing my locker hook book signing and demonstration in the Rocklin and Citrus Heights stores this past Saturday. I was able to set up a display with a variety of samples and demonstrate locker hooking techniques--including how to make holiday ornaments. I received such a warm welcome from the customers, they were excited to watch and asked lots of great questions. The stores offered my book at a special price and they had fabric discount coupons for the customers too.
We also gave away a "Hook, Loop & Lock" starter kit at each store that includes all of the tools and materials to make a locker hooked trivet with a ceramic tile.
Mother Nature cooperated and the store lights were on this time. In the Santa Rosa store the prior Saturday we had a power outage due to a big storm and I was pleasantly surprised to see so many nice people still showing up to make purchases and see my demonstration.
Please join me this Saturday at the Soquel store from 11am-1pm and then Monterey from 3-5pm. I look forward to seeing you there!"

We look forward to seeing you there too, Theresa :) Thanks so much for everything!
