Katie's Treasures is a family owned and operated business which began in 1996 and grew from an interest in beading and beadcraft, with finished goods originally being the primary saleable product. Following repeated requests by numerous customers for beading supplies, Katie's Treasures expanded and began trading from our shopfront location at 72a Orchardtown Road, NEW LAMBTON, NSW, 2305 (in the "Blackbutt" Shopping Centre) in October 1998, as illustrated below:

"The Store"- Our 'Treaure Trove' |
Katie's Treasures continued to grow and prosper from
our Orchardtown Road premises, to the point where we required a supplementary
work and storage area which we occupied from March 2003. This was a temporary
solution which only partially fulfilled our needs. Although we weren't actually
actively looking for a change, we were open to the possibilities and found a new
location, which we occupied fully from mid July 2004.
We spent over five and a half eventful years at
Orchardtown Road, where we started with a few pegboards covered with beads, to
the point where we had literally “run out of space”. As we had spent almost six years
at Orchardtown Road, we left there with mixed feelings.
However, for some time, as many of our personal
customers will agree, we have needed more space to adequately display our stock
and cater to our customers’ requirements. Our new location, only a few minutes
drive from our previous location, will enable us to fulfil both of these needs,
and much more.
The move has allowed us to expand
and service all our needs from the one location. . We
"officially" began treading from our NEW SHOWROOM at Unit 1 / 27
Crescent Road, WARATAH, NSW, 2298
from the 19th of July, 2004. We also took
the opportunity to extend our business hours to cater to our customer's needs.
So, please accept an invitation
to come and visit. We’re sure that you won’t be disappointed !
