BSNM Board is collaborating with Big Frog Custom T-Shirts of Albuquerque to provide members with a way to order custom BSNM shirts and bags -- you can view shirts and options at https://beads.itemorder.com/shop/home/ or you can visit the Big Frog Shop in person to check shirts and try them on in person (without the logo) at 6001 San Mateo Blvd NE, Suite D-2, Albuquerque, NM (same shopping area as Amy's Donuts).  Plus you get Bead Buck Points every time you wear your shirt to a BSNM meeting or event.
