Although we do not carry open stock of beading supplies or rubberstamping supplies, we are available to schedule small (1 – 4 people) A-La-Carte classes preferably starting in the mornings on Tuesdays, Thursdays, or Saturdays before we open for business. Please contact us if you are interested.
We prepare our class and events by request. If there is something you would like to learn, please let us know and we will do our best to accommodate your request, either in the form of one of our previous sessions or through other arrangements. Scrolling back through the class schedule will show some of the classes we have done in the past. **At the moment, our calendar is not functioning in a way that we can add anything new. Please check the “News” page for any classes or events. Thank you for your patience. **
Crafting A-La-Carte is available Tuesdays and Thursdays during the day (mornings 9-11 & afternoons 1-3, we are flexible about those times). The time is available for class but nothing is scheduled until someone reserves the time. The first person to reserve the time chooses what the class will be. We need a minimum of 24 hours notice so we can prepare (some classes require 48 hours to prepare materials). Most classes are available (dependent upon materials availability).
One time of the year that it is difficult to schedule specific Saturday classes is football season. Pendleton is in such close proximity to Clemson that our traffic flow is greatly affected at certain times of the day on home game Saturdays. And our students, who many of which are also fans, are not always able to attend. We therefore schedule a variety of A-La-Carte and Open Studio times instead for those who wish to work around football.
Pendleton’s Second Friday is sponsored by the Pendleton Area Business Association . A variety of Pendleton’s businesses are open until 8 PM (some a bit later) and some have live entertainment and refreshments.
Our plans are still forming at the moment, we will update when we know for sure what we are doing.
We will have refreshments.

Cocktail Napkin Cards – 2 hours – Cindy Earl Higgins – $20
You may ask how can you make greeting cards out of cocktail napkins… let Cindy show you a variety of ways.
Not all of these cards pictured were done in one class, but all were made with cocktail napkins. We will make 4 cards and they will vary class to class based on what napkins work with the design ideas Cindy has in her head.
Wishing all fathers and father figures a Happy Fathers Day!
We thought it was about time we had our friend Katie Dante bring her selection of LuLaRoe clothing for you to shop right here at The Mercantile again. This is a great time to pick out some fresh fashions for Summer!
LuLaRoe is a line of easy-care, comfortable clothing for women, men and children. They are well known for their buttery soft leggings, but their collection spans tops, skirts, dresses, and “sweaters” in a variety of styles. The sizing ranges from XXS to 3XL for women and the children’s sizes cover from toddlers to teenagers. Men’s sizes I have not looked at yet, so I cannot say how they range.
LuLaRoe only makes a limited number of items in a variety of sizes from each fabric, if you see a print you like in a size that fits, you need to get it because it may not show up again. The consultants/stylists can only order by size & style, the rest is a mystery to them until they open the boxes.
