Can someone explain this to me? Any place I can buy reasonable dumortierite in strands? Thanks.

I've just posted a set of beads that are cheering me up on this snowy morning (yep- you heard me right - snow!!!). I've been playing with laying down my glass somewhat differently - part of the legacy of my glassblowing classes - and trying to be more painterly in my approach. I think this set...

I can read but not reply... ARGH this is driving me CRAZY! Karen, I got your email but I can't send my reply... I was going to have Moxley look at it as soon as he gets home (tomorrow... he's in Seattle playing a show) but in the meantime, I can't make it do more than one at a time either!...

Hi peeps, Halfway though a necklace the other day I ran out of 6mm Bali-style daisy spacers. Where's the best place for these spacers? I'll be buying a reasonable amount, I love using them. I've looked on the Links List but there's no way of telling who sells them and who doesn't, and I didn't...

If you ever get the desire, I would be interested in seeing how you are threading things to make your own findings. That is the most exciting thing I have heard in a long time. I love handmade findings, and would like to learn more ways to make some. Thanks. Becki "In between the moon and you,...

Well, this afternoon I taught a RAW bracelet class over at Ben Franklin Crafts. I taught it there the other month and we used the glass bicones they had in stock. I talked to the woman who heads up the classes there and got her hooked on Swarovskis. She in turn went to the store owner. They now...

I finally finished this... it's the first *big* piece I've done.. I usually do earrings or stringing... it's brick stitch with delicas, and I probably didn't get all the right colors but I'm pretty excited about it.. it's taken me like 2 years to get it done!!! It's a Christmas present. I'm...

I went to a bead show last weekend, and enjoyed myself greatly. I mostly bought pearls, with a few hanks of seed beads and some gemstone focals. I took my sister along with me, and she's interested in learning how to do a bit of beadwork now. ahh, how the addiction is so easily spread..just get...

Candace's post about buying Sculpey reminded me of a couple of questions I wanted to ask any clay artists here who tumble their beads. Do you prefer grit or sandpaper? And why? How do you keep translucent clay from discoloring? Is there a way to get rid of fingerprints without tumbling? Maybe...

Doing a friend a favour by posting this to the group for her...she wants to remain anonymous for now. "I'm asking Jalynne to post this for me because I want to keep my business private for now as I deal with some very stressful things. My husband and I have decided to divorce after many years of...

Lark Books is publishing a book called "500 Beads". It will be out in Fall, 2004. I have the best news - one of my dichroic glass designs was selected to be in the book!! ( If you have one of my postcards, it is the pink donut on the top right) I heard on Monday and have been on cloud 9 ever...

Thank you all so much for your support during the hypothetical favorit bead smashed to pieces crisis. It really helps to get so many hugs and knowing nods! So now that I'm not nervous - I want to show you my 2nd attempt at wire. I had to use alternate beads, since my favorite bead in the...

I have also discovered, tonight, a recently undiagnosed shower curtain fetish. I found at least six of them, all white, battenberg lace, various styles (two fake battenberg ones). LOL. I only have one shower and one bathroom and have only had one in every apartment where I have lived. Becki "In...
