This was in a 2007 issue of Bead and button, and I wanted to make it, but didn't have the oval crystals. I finally got some, so here it is: www.beadbimbo.com/ebay/beadsandvines1asm.jpg I would say it kind of has a design flaw in that the ends flop around, and I really don't like that. I...

I'm back from my honeymoon, and I'm exhausted. It was GREAT -- and parts sucked, too. I never tell the world at large when I'm about to leave, only tell when I get back. (It's not smart to announce that one's house will be empty for several days or weeks....) So Hi, you guys! ...

Thanks to everyone who answered. Some comments on your comments: Pricing. Okay, how much higher should I go? Here's an example of how I came to a price - The amythyst glass piece cost me $5.61 to make. I paid myself a wage of $7 because as a beginner, I feel that's appropriate. I rounded up the...

I was looking at Helen's beads http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2693741464&category=34070 and remembering the Fonda/Clark that Beki Haley had up last week (that Pat Hauge beat me out of, the bitch, LOL). And I wanted to say to you all that I love sculptural flower beads. I...

Okay. You just cashed in the winning state lotto ticket. The amount they awarded you -- after taxes -- is $25 million. What beady project will you indulge in? Not what beads will you buy -- that's only part of the answer. What will you *do* with those beads? ~~ Sooz The things that will...
