It’s great! I love the music and the color is beautiful. It covers everything wonderful about the store
Wonderful! Like a trip to the store, it inspired me this morning!
My name is Karen Hemphill and I am a recent transplant from Asheville, NC. I few months back I stopped into your store on a recommendation from a new friend. I was considering buying out a business in Apex, formerly, Artist Oasis. I described to a new friend what I had envision as the voice of my store and what I would bring to it’s “community”. She said “it sounds similar to my favorite store Panopolie” so, I paid the shop a visit.
I was happy to see that I was able to convey much of my vision to her as I browsed your store. I could definitely see where she saw the similarities, in that you carried vintage curiosities merchandised with style and in inspiring ways, there is a place in the open store for artist’s to camp out and build relationships in a quilting bee fashion. I even inquired about the possibility of teaching a coptic bound book making workshop and could clearly see that my talents to be valued there, as I spoke with a member of the staff. I like(d) your shop.
Months ago, I decided not to take the path of retail and further develop some of my other ideas. I just returned to check in on the shop and look back in to offering to teach a workshop. As I returned to the site and followed some links I was very impressed.
Here’s why. Your web content is very good and I commend your foresight in offering the video profile. It was very well done. I am writing you, long winded as it may be, to tell you that you are doing a great job. You have unique and beautiful stores’, your passion for the creative process is abound, you understand the importance of having rich web content utilizing multiple media types on the web and you are building powerful social networks to build your brand.
Sister, I am here to tell you, Keep up the Good Work!… and if you ever want to know any of the ideas I had envisioned in mind’s eye, I would be happy to share.
I wish you continued success!
Karen
Wow!!! The video is awesome!!! I come to your store quite often and I enjoy being mesmerized by all of the jewels. Every once in a while, I’ll peek my head into Panopolie, but I live closer to Glenwood.
I’m always promoting your stores, telling everyone how fabulous it is! I’ve had friends go into your store totally unaware of your products. They come out and they’re absolutely in love.
I look forward to my next “jewelry hypnosis”!
love the video, Cynthia’s comments, the visuals, music, and clips of customers. Yep, that’s the bead store I know and love!
Wow! Here is a toast to my favorite shop in all of Raleigh!!! Love to Cynthia from a long time beadfreak and friend.
Hey Ndidi!!
peace & namaste

This ad is impressive in two respects: it inspires and treats the customer as an artist. As such, the message moves beyond mere selling into energizing patrons’ creative impulses while encouraging jewelry makers to stretch their creative approaches and skills.
What an accomplishment!

I love the video! It reminds me of why I love Ornamentea so much! I absolutely adored how gorgeous everyone looked with their projects and how happy you all were.
Kudos Cynthia, Ndidi and all the beautiful women!
I am so excited to see this commercial because my kids (Wilson County 4-H) and myself are in the commercial!!! VERY exciting!!!!
The commercial came out great!
Very inspirational, made me want to start making something and I don’t even make jewelry. Susan(Boo) should go into acting, she was great!
Great advertisement for your shop. I am an Ornamentea/Panoplie fan. Love the shop and the staff. Great job to all.
wow… nice webmercial!!!! I’ve gotta get to Raleigh!!! How many hours is it from Nashville?;)
FABULOUS commercial! I visited Ornamentea once heading home from somewhere in NC and I was sooooo impressed. The staff was great, very friendly, and willing to answer questions and help me find what I needed. I can’t wait to get back to the area, I am even thinking about carpooling with a friend and signing up for a class. (4 hours drive for me)
Love the emails too- they always get me excited and motivated to create something new!
Fantastic video! Kudos! It is just the level of excellence that you’ve spoiled us with for the past ten years. Congratulations on your tenth anniversary and I look forward to toasting your twentieth.
(And do you know the title of the music you used in your video? It’s got the perfect combination of fast and slow to get those creative juices flowing!)
I was browsing the NET and found you’r site. I watches your video commercial and LOVED it. It was fresh and beautiful. I can’t wait to do my ordering. I like that you have classes, Boy do I need them. I can’t wait to start it All.
