The new year is marching on and we, in the Riebeek Valley, are slowly melting in the summer heat.  The grape harvest is underway, so although we would all love a little rain, we will have to be patient for a while longer.

We all fade a little at this time of year, but we have lots of plans for the store and the website this year.

We are planning changes to the website and will be adding a shopping cart.  Our pricing structure will be simplified so that we can make sure that you get the best value possible when shopping at the Frog.

 We are making room for an extended range of Japanese seed beads, Delicas and crystals, so there are some great bargains to be had.

Keep watching the "On Sale" page for details.

Tila Beads

We have had a number of requests for these, the latest offering from Japanese bead manufacturers.  One of the problems that bead merchants encounter is the speed at which trends change.  We have no sooner stocked up on the latest "big thing" than everything changes and we are left with stock that is no longer in demand.

We have therefore decided that we will not stock these - they are expensive and their use is limited.  However, should you have a project that you would like to try, we are happy to order them for you -just let us know the exact colour and quantity that you need.  A deposit will be required at the time of the order.
