Good Swarovski Crystal Bead Distributor in UK by
[email protected]
Hi everyone,
I recently joined this group and have been enjoying the various
discussions.
I was wondering if any of you might be able to point me in the
direction of a good UK-based distributor for Swarovski crystal beads,
and possibly, one that doesn't require a specific minimum order.
Thanks...

Mizz Patty
Does anyone know where we might buy 935/1000 silver wire in various
shapes? In my googling I am coming up empty except for large-scale
industrial suppliers - not jewelry-making (read: a few ounce quantity)
suppliers.
Many thanks in advance of your knowledgeable answers!

with any other platinum family alloys.
Which is my next question, what exactly is it alloyed with? Also, how
difficult is it work with this metal? From a jeweler's point of view,
would you...

Worshiping in the Template Temple by
Frosty
I'm trying to find a source for templates.
Either the aluminium type or (preferably) the green, clearish stuff.
I need 5 & 6 pointed stars, triangles, squares, etc. ranging from 1/4"
down as small as possible and hopefully with many sizes in between.
Help?
