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.
We’re having a 40% OFF SALE on wood-mount rubber stamps 6/13 – 6/27, excluding Stamps By Judith & Heather and any special orders or holds.
We are doing a little bit of rearranging of the stamp area and making more room for the growing number of the cling rubber stamps we now carry.
Make – n – Takes – 6 hours – Cindy & Phyllis
Come see what fun Make – n – Takes we have cooked up for you while Terri is on the road for the start of vacation.
Jo Hoffacker of Mondo Mojo is making a return visit to Pendleton and will be having a 1-day Trunk Show here at The Mercantile.
Jo makes wonderful glass beads, buttons and glass-tipped head pins as well as other fun and unique items.
She will be teaching a class on how to make a Mini Fairy Garden with the headpins and more used in your design. (See Mini Fairy Garden class/event for more details.)
At this time, I am not sure of all she will be bringing with her, but I will edit this and add as I learn more. (The photo right now is from her last visit.)

Build A Toad House – $25.00 – Cindy Earl Higgins
The toads need a cool dry place to hide away from the strong Southern sun. Cindy will have templates and texturing tools for building a ceramic Toad House for the garden out of Terra Cotta clay.
Build the Toad House in class, choose a color of glaze from the samples for the roof. Once they have dried thoroughly, Cindy will fire them, glaze the roof tops and fire them again.
I will post a photograph once the sample piece is fired. In the meantime, here is a photo of the sample in progress.
Toad house – it’s not finished yet, still needs glazing & firing!
