HUGE SALE MAY 21st and May 22nd
We just wanted to remind you that Tomorrow and Sunday, May 21st and 22nd, Pouncing Rain is having a really BIG SALE. Pouncing Rain has never offered such a big discount before, but Saturday and Sunday we are selling our Beads (not metal beads) Cabs and Pearls at 40% OFF their regular price. WHY you ask? Because we really want to bring in more cool things and cannot until we sell the stock that we already have.
There will be refreshments, daily door prizes, and on the hour, we will also have demos. We invite you to stop by and say hello, and stock up on those beads, pearls and cabs you have had you eye on.
Hope to see you this weekend,
Kathleen
