And apologies if your first name is misspelled. (You live in Berkeley long enough, and everything that ends with "lee" sounds is spelled "ley"......) I was going to send you a bead size chart. I've finally gotten off my ass and I've got it for you. (It's been way, wayyyyyyy too long -- but I...

So, what is the one color or technique you are absolutely terrified to use/try? -- Barbara Beader and Polymer Clay Crusader http://www.penguintrax.com and http://www.backseatgrammarian.com There is a very fine line between a hobby and mental illness. (Dave Barry)

I don't know what got into me today, but I suddenly realized that I *absolutely had* to rearrange my studio. It's lovely now, and almost perfect! I just have to move all my glass to the far wall and run another electrical circuit so I can put my kiln next to my workbench. Well, there's always...

Yes, Dr. Sooz, I do have a question! I mostly make bracelets, but have recently branched out to necklaces. My first one was strung on silk, but I'm not sure it has the qualities I want for my next one. The first requirement is that I must be able to knot it instead of crimp it. I cannot use...

Hi Everyone, Well I'm another mad passionate beader. I have just gone online with my site in the hope of selling some of my beaded jewellery. I love working with miyuke seed/delica beads and I adore swarovski crystals. I am now just starting a love affair with semi-pecious stones. It can be an...

I have a couple ending later today - both still at decent prices. :) Storybook Pumpkins http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120016155956 Fall Lanterns http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120016860029 Thanks for looking! :) --

I dislike FMG for many reasons. Quality is definitely one of them. If you want a good "bang" G I highly recommend Monsterslayer.com. They're great to deal with, have excellent prices, and a good website. Halsteadbead.com is great, too, but they're wholesale only and require a $100 minimum...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=002&item=120017883204 I wept, I sobbed, I ran away, I ran back, I ran away again. Good luck with it, JC and Cindy, that's some offer. How I wish I were a rich woman but all I have are these beads to trade.... Wait, that's no good... they're your...

I'm not in a position to order yet which is killing me but I've seen a sample card *pauses to clear keyboard of drool* of the Preciosa crystals. They are amazing. And I'd dump the S-word in a heartbeat once I can lay my hands on Preciosa. -Su *oooh something sparkly*

OK SOOZ you asked for a ? you got a ? I've shown some of my designer pieces to my friends and family lately and got a very positive response, and not just b/c they love me and I'm so irresistable :) All of them want me to pursue being placed in boutiques/museums/higher end shops... but believe...
