It seems that I have developed heel spurs in both feet, the right more painful than the left. My boss gave me some heel pads for my shoes and they helped the first few days. It hurts to sit, stand, walk and even lie down now, unless I elevate my feet. The right heel throbs. I'm to the point...

What is with me? I am so bad at getting sets listed on the Bay... but I finally did it last night, I put "Sand and Sky" up. Here's the linky: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=4912703383 Thanks for looking! More are coming... I did a bunch of timed listings, so they'll be...

A Pagan in Hell A Pagan dies and, to his great surprise, he finds himself standing before some pearly gates. St. Peter asks him, "May I help you?" The Pagan asks, "Where am I?" Peter says, "You're at the gates of heaven."

Can anyone tell me which company or companies are the makers of Japanese 'miracle beads'?

DH got back from getting us lunch and I had a package from Kalera. My cute little centipede bead is here along with a little pal. Thanks Kalera! Now I finally have some of your beads to put on my display rack. :-) -- Starlia Klopman www.klopmanstudios.com

Does anyone have a source for inexpensive, small padded (bubble-wrap) envelopes, such as would be appropriate for mailing beads? I seem to recall someone posting about that in the telescoping past (so it could be a couple of years ago, LOL). I don't need to buy 100, but there's gotta be a...

Yesterday Colette and I were at Pearl crafts store, checking out the polylcay and the newest batch of Blue Mountain beads (pearl now carries Blue Mountian furnace glass and "lampwork"). I had on no jewelry except a multi-strand memory wire bracelet of cheap glass beads, AND I was wearing a purple...

We listed our first Princess Auctions tonight, and scheduled them to close in ten days so you'll have plenty of time to put aside money for them, even if you have to skip lunch, visits to Starbucks, etc. to do so. We started with our most popular 4mm bicone colors and will add listings of more...

I wanted to post something I made last night. I was watching DD's new favorite movie Cinderella and thought of the design. It is blue and pink with Sterling Silver star beadcaps on the Sky blue 8mm druks and small sterling silver crown beads between the pink 6mm druks. The toggle is a three...

I put some etched beads up on ebay: http://makeashorterlink.com/?Q55365307 I've also added some dichro cabs to my website: http://www.beadbimbo.com/fused_glass.htm And a few wire wrapped pendants (just to show off):

Sorry for the second ad so soon after my other one but I got my tail in gear and got the listing posted sooner than I expected. Another earring set, if you so choose to make earrings with them.. They are made with Northstar's different purple shades but also have that effervescent effect I am...

Hello everybody! Well, finally found out how to set this back up. Paid dial up so no more time limit. Now for the catch-up. Sorry to hear about Rebekah. Good luck with the auctions. Sending as many positive vibes as I can share. Going through that kind of treatment is stressful for all...

In the famous word of Bill the Cat: ACK!!!! That first one is definitely NOT sugilite! No, no, no, no!!! Here's some real stuff from a reputable dealer for comparison: http://www.earthstone.com/Info/Beads/Sugilite.htm I'm with you, Kathy. Not something you'd want to wear against a...

I've been trying to find them in the UK but no luck. There are several available on US sites but I'll be darned if I can figure out which ones are what! Does anyone have a set and could you recommend a place to get them? And also exactly what to get? After viewing various sites and trying to...

Rachel, could you email me? I can't figger out your addy/spamblocker. I have some information emailed to me from Locks of Love. Locks of Love offers synthetic hairpieces for children with short-term hair loss. Rebekah's family could be able to get a hairpiece for Rebekah for free, or at low...

The only bead I got done last night was the Bat bead for the Coco Bat set. http://snipurl.com/7sln -- Starlia Klopman www.klopmanstudios.com

Hey all! I made it safe and sound to Bisbee. I meet Kate tomorrow. I'm having email problems - I can receive mail, but I can't get any to send out. I also can't get hooked to my news server ( VJ -I get a message saying unable to connect to server) - so I'm sending this through Google.
