A Baby Shower at Bev's in Santa Maria

The ladies in the Knitting & Crochet Group take center stage again on our blog.  The reason?  Well, they decided to have a baby shower for one of the members and actually had it during their weekly gathering at Beverly’s in Santa Maria!  They shopped, knitted/crocheted, ate yummy food and watched the Mama open a ton of baby gifts.

The presents!  There were a lot of them!  Some of the ladies even chipped in to buy a car seat!  

Linda made clouds with raindrops that hung over the baby "shower" area while rubber duckies swam around in the punch bowl! (BOTH really good ideas for  the next baby shower you host!)

The proud Mama takes a moment during the festivities to pose next to the presents then gets to task of actually opening them all!

Today's color theme was baby blue!

Welcome Baby!

I've said it before and I'll say it again: These ladies are just awesome!  They really help make Saturdays at Beverly's in Santa Maria extra special!

Happy Saturday and thank you for checking out today's blog post!

Tea Time in Wonderland

Tea Time in Wonderland was a hit at Beverly's in Santa Maria!  Kids were coloring and making cool crafts while their parents munched on the goodies (the lemon cookies were delicious!).  The Queen of Hearts, insisted that everyone eat and have fun or "off with their heads!" 

Jenna and Nancy (i.e. the Queen of Hearts) take a moment to pose for a picture. 

Just a couple of the things that our customers created while they hung out with us!

One of our customers found a great spot to participate in the coloring contest...close to the goodies!

The Queen of Hearts and the Mad Hatter crafted the day away at the make-n-take table.

Thank you for checking out our

A special Thanks to everyone who came to spend their Saturday with us.  We hope that you all had as much fun as we did.

The Knitting & Crochet Group

Every Saturday morning at Beverly's in Santa Maria crafty ladies trickle into the store to participate in the FREE Knitting and Crochet Group.  We call them a group but really the word "group" doesn't do them justice.  These ladies are friends and in some cases family that come together to share ideas, friendship and fun. They welcome new members with big smiles and warm hearts and every person there is made to feel that they belong.  They are a diverse collection of talented ladies of all ages that have found a common ground: yarn and creativity.  We look forward to seeing them on Saturdays (and Wednesdays, too!).  Their positive energy and spiritedness adds a little something special to Saturdays at Beverly's in Santa Maria.  So, as a thank you to these amazing ladies I thought we might feature them on our blog.  I figured they might like the attention...hee hee!



The ladies gather around tables near fabrics.  If anyone if having trouble with a stitch there is always someone ready and willing to help out.



Some of the ladies use looms while others use hooks. Children are encouraged to learn to create with yarn as well.

There is a lot of sharing in this group.  Everyone comes prepared to work on a project that they've already been working on.  BUT they also come prepared to learn something new.

These ladies are amazing! I don't knit or crochet but watching them on Saturdays makes me want to!  They are talented and creative but more than that they are delightful!  They are our customers but they are also our friends!

Thank you to the Knitting and Crochet Group for making

Beverly's in Santa Maria

the place to be on Saturdays!
