Hi all, I am new to making handcrafted beaded jewelry. I am looking for a good wholesale/bulk bead supplier that sells to the general public. I've noticed some of the really good suppliers only sell to businesses. Any suggestions?

I'm finally back in my own place after Hurricane Frances. My power was off from Saturday 9/4 until Friday 9/10 at midnight (thank you, Florida Plunder and Loot). Got the 3 cats and the bird back home last night after an hour of trying to catch Myler More (the 20lb kitty) who was hiding under the...

Hello, hope everyone is having a beautiful fall morning. When you are checking out ebay auctions, have a look at these: http://tinyurl.com/bgua7 Two auctions: One for all you cat lovers and an Ocean Heart Amulet - it comes with a free black rubber cord with silver clasp so it's "ready to wear" and...

Nice necklace, love the focal, but it's not a good idea to post pics to this newsgroup. Lots of folks (like me) are still using dial-up connections and it takes forever to download pics. You might think about posting the pic to a website, and just putting a link to it in your post. Welcome, btw...

My mom was a hitter...in later years, as adults, we would laugh and say that if we were kids now, and she did that, she'd be up on abuse charges (not really, we were never beaten, just smacked on the butt...sometimes a lot!). But, if we were really horrid, she would simply say, "Wait until your...

Hi all, Just started making beaded jewelry and I'm using all sterling components. SS eyepins and headpins are pricey and I'm finding myself snipping off better than half the pin. The snipped piece isn't quite long enough for me to use again hence I'm tossing them, wincing each time. I've got a...

Goooood morning! It's Friday, it's nice and cool, and I have a show tomorrow, my first one in three years! I'm nervous and excited and just plain looking forward to it. Still debating whether to set up outside or not. I have enough cool-o boro beads that it might just be worthwhile. In the...

I just sat and listed a whole pile... OK, 7, but it feels like a pile... of new auctions! I did it with a VERY SQUIRMY Ophelia sitting on my lap, so forgive any typos! This little girl of mine just doesn't like to sleep! I also have auctions ending tomorrow night, I'm just gonna say it right now...

An article in National Geographic several years ago provided an interesting picture of God's wings. After a forest fire in Yellowstone National Park, forest rangers began their trek up a mountain to assess the inferno's damage. One ranger found a bird literally petrified in ashes, perched...
