Join Us This Weekend for the 2nd Annual Charlie Bears Birthday Party!

And it is that time again - Charlie Bears turns 11 in 2016!  They have decided to celebrate each year and create a special mystery birthday box which contains a mini version of one of the most popular Charlie Bears ever produced.  Mum's the word as we do not want to spill the beans on who the mystery bear is this year.  (But was have to admit that many of you have already guessed from a process of elimination who this adorable bear is).

Anyway, Beacon's Glow Collectibles will have some super Deals of the Day this weekend (Charlie Bears of course).  And we will be including a gift with each purchase.  And also, don't forget to use the coupon code charlie upon checkout to receive an additional 10% off of any purchase.  (A perfect way to help you in starting your holiday shopping!)

Happy Birthday, Charlie Bears!

Eyes of Texas Dolls Made From Dianna Effner Doll Molds

Even to this day, the beautiful Dianna Effner Dolls still have a huge following.  There are several Facebook groups out there specifically dedicated to Dianna's Little Darling Dolls.  Little Darling Dolls come in three face sculpts - Little Darling #1, Little Darling #2, and you guessed it, Little Darling #3.  What truly sets these dolls apart are their hand-painted eyes.

Brenda Mize, Owner of Beacon's Glow Collectibles, creates her own version of these 13 inch dolls and has been doing so since January of 2015.  Each doll is hand-poured, sanded and assembled from a unique air-dried casting material.  This material looks like porcelain and is stronger than porcelain.

Her favorite part in the creation of each doll is painting their eyes, hence, this is how the name  "Eyes of Texas Dolls"  came about.

Additionally, she has been teaching herself how to make smocked dresses for the dolls.  Smocking is all completed by hand and creates a very distinctive and old-fashioned look that is perfect for doll dresses.

November 2016 is Birthday Party Month at Beacon's Glow Collectibles!

Please join us in celebrating two special birthdays this month!  Beacon's Glow Collectibles turns 13 and Charlie Bears turns 11 and both happen in November.

The BG birthday party will be held the weekend of November 11th through Sunday, November 13th.  We have many special birthday celebration ideas planned - free giveaways, special sales, and lots of super weekend Deals of the Day.

Then the following weekend we will be having the Second Annual Charlie Bears Birthday Party!

This party will occur on Saturday, November 19th and this year we have been allocated all of our mystery birthday boxes.  Many have been reserved by customers but we still have a few left.  If you are interested, please email us at info@beaconsglow.com .  Several customers have made some really good guesses as far as who the mini mystery bear might be inside.  Personally, I am hoping that it will be a mini version of Jim Bob, once of my favorite plush teddy bears.

Additionally, we will have giveaways and lots of stupendous Charlie Bear Deals of the Day!
