Follow Sandstones on Facebook and Twitter!

Hi everyone!

We have FINALLY got our new facebook page up and running this week with
loads of cool features - read on! You can find the link to it, near the top,
on the right side of our home page as signified by the blue 'f' logo.
Alternatively, you can click here:
http://www.facebook.com/pages/Sandstones-Beads-Jewellery-Making-Supplies/133852249969538


As it's brand new, we're looking a bit lonely at the moment so please click
on the link and 'like' our page - thanks! :-)

Now the cool bit! Please feel free to use our facebook page to show off your
creations and talents as a beader or jewellery maker. You can upload your
photos directly, using the 'photos' tab at the top of the page, and also
describe the process or the beads you used, or whatever is appropriate for
the piece. If possible, we prefer you to show off beads or products that you
have purchased from us and hope you understand and respect that :-)

Please also feel free to enter into bead and jewellery making discussions
using the 'discussions' tab at the top of the page. If you think you can
help someone out by giving them advice or by posting something of interest
and on-topic, then we'd love to hear from you.

You can also use the 'reviews' tab to discuss our products and services, for
example, and also post any links that you think will benefit others.

Finally, click the '>>' tab to see products currently featured in our Etsy
shop or go directly to: http://www.sand-stones.co.uk

And now the boring bit...Sandstones Beads & Jewellery Making Supplies
reserves the right to remove any photo, link, posting, remark, spam item,
advertisement (excluding any link to a page or product on our website) or
discussion topic, in part or in whole, at any time and without notice, that
it deems inappropriate or that contravenes the 'spirit' of this page as a
helpful resource to the beading and jewellery making community. Help us by
bringing to our attention, any such items!

Please also follow us on Twitter, you'll see the 't' link next to the 'f' on
the home page of our website. The Twitter page isn't finished yet and we'll
change the 'look n feel' of it in due course, but you can still follow our
tweets!!
