For all of our destination shoppers, I wanted to share a few of our secrets.
Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010Although making a trip to Columbus just to visit The Beadcage is usually more than enough, some of our shoppers want more.
So, I have come up with some great ideas to make your trip to The Beadcage as fulfilling as possible. The first idea is to contact us for information on any hotel specials we have for our customers. We have special arrangements with nearby hotels that may be available for you during your visit with us. Yes, many people do travel to The Beadcage from all over the United States. Many of our visitors are on their way somewhere and will stop by, but some are coming just for the beads. So we try to be as helpful as possible.
Plan your trip during one of our events or classes and bring some friends. Our classes are a great treat as we often bring in renowned artists and teachers. This way you can make the most of your time by staying and taking a class and shopping at the same time. Having your friends with you will make the time even more enjoyable. We are often having great events including Trunk Shows and specials. Make sure to sign up for our news letter to find out all the specifics, look at our web sites or just call us ahead of time. Saving money on beads and then getting a great deal at one of our events would make the perfect weekend trip.
When you come, please know that we are in the upscale shopping area in Columbus. There is a great Hair Stylist and also spas, right next door. Three doors down is Panera Bread and right next to us is Chico’s and Talbot’s. Trendier stores are across the street. We have car dealerships, bowling, Hollywood Connection, ice cream parlors and the famous Chef Lee’s in walking distance.
A great weekend could also include a trip to Calloway Gardens. From there you are only a short distance to The Beadcage for a shopping excursion. You could make it a weekend to include an upscale downtown hotel and a night at the Springer Opera House. You could even include some time at the Fort Benning National Infantry Museum where you could also take in a show at the IMAX theater.
No matter what your interests or who you will be traveling with, you will be treated to a great day of comfortable shopping at The Beadcage. Be aware that this will not be a quick in and out shop. It will take you hours to go through most of what we have. Most people find that a day is really not enough time. Be aware that our efficient design and displays can be deceiving and there is really more things than you will be able to take in in one day.
