Lori, you aren't limited to just accepting PayPal on your eBay auctions to get the 1.5%. It says: ....advertise PayPal as the only online payment service on your eBay listings. You can still accept checks and money orders, and you can even mention other online payment services in your...

Tell me what you think - some of the pieces don't thrill me much but it's nice to get feedback about what others like. And advice on how they are displayed on this website is also greatly appreciated. www.stampinhappens.com/jewelry.html Thanks! Mary Close To My Heart...

No, this isn't off topic. My favorite new beading tool is a Butler Dental Floss Threader -- not the white kind that looks like a teenage mutant toothpick, but the blue kind with a big loop and about a 2 inch stiff end. My bead crochet teacher gave us all one and said they were useful in...

Thought maybe we could start this discussion anew... I'm sure you "oldies" have gone over this stuff a bunch of times for us "newbies", but I'm loving the little nuggets I'm picking up in the other thread - just not loving the sifting through it to find them... so, please, tell us or comment...

why all you had to do was ask!! Metalwerx is just about 1 mile from my house...i go there often. As a matter of fact it just had a seminar day sponsored by Ganoksin that was really quite nice. Quite a number of people rent their bench space there. I've been to both the BCAE and the CCAE...nice...

Take the time to give your new toy a drink of oil after cleaning it carefully. The links that Deborah gave you might show just where to put a drop or two of sewing machine oil to keep the machine purring. If not, then put a drop wherever two metal parts move against one another. What do you hope...

I got this third hand, allegedly posted on Wet Canvas. Anyone else see or follow this story? Does it have any credibiltiy? I'll comment at end. ~~~~~quote~~~~ warning to those who make/sell Glass Rings -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I was served...

I made some new bracelets over the last few days and I really like them. Two of them use the Mavis Smith beads I bought at the Bead Show on Sunday. I want to post the link to my website here so you can take a look (if you want to). Here's my question: Do I need to put "AD" in the subject line?...

I ran across this site, and although I like some of what she posted, some of it, I just gritted my teeth...and *I* don't make beads yet. http://www.spiritartworks.com/view/?pageID=133618 I am not posting it for people to argue with her, but to discuss the points that she brought up. I think a...

Arrrgh, I've hardly been able to get on the newsgroup lately, I'm having withdrawals! (I spend all my free time waiting for the baby to sleep so I can make beads... I've finally gotten comfortable enough with my torch to be productive! Yay!) Anyway, I know this is a subject that gets hashed and...

Sigh - I just found out that I can't move back into my house in Asheville - my landlady's decided the cats can't live there anymore - and no cats, no me. I found out when I called to see if I needed to come to Asheville to move things out of the basement before the next round of rain. So - I like...

Jalynne mentioned rearranging her craft room. I've been thinking a lot about the same thing. Last Spring I put all my beads out on the porch. I call it the "sunroom" because it is all windows on 3 sides, and has nice light. Except in winter. And it's hard to keep the light from being very...

Hi, everyone, I have an old pair of earrings that were done with a length of flexible wire as the ear wire, and I can't find anything similar anywhere. I'd like to find the components in silver if possible, and would appreciate any hints. Thank. -Su
