Hi all, A few weeks back someone had posted a link to a website about poly clay. All the information in the entire *world* about poly clay was on this site. Silly me, I forgot to bookmark it, and now I can't find it again. Help please? Cheers, Carla

Hi all - I've been quite busy lately so I haven't exactly been posting, but you might enjoy checking out the new pendants that have been keeping me away. There are four up now, including a blue daisy and a dark purple viola, and there will be more tonight , as well as some brooches. ...

Passion of the Flame and Night Passion.....they are STUNNING! Thank you Tink!! Since I am officially out of lurk mode here is a little about me: My name is Lise and I live in south Florida. I have been beading for about 6 months, and a month ago I took a lampwork class with John Winter and now...

Just wanted to let everyone know I am taking some time off. Have way too much yard work to do right now and I have also adopted some extra work at my part time job. All volunteer of course. Anyhoo, the auctions that end tomorrow are it for a while. Just had a whole bunch of stuff that went...

Happy Friday everyone!!! To be honest, I think some of my best-ever beads will be up on Tuesday (I just peeked in the kiln and WOW!). I had a great day today and yesterday. BUT I still had some goodies socked away from earlier this week, and they get their turn first (cuz they won't burn my hands...

what classes are you thinking of? I would like to take one but can't decide... choices choices... -- Pam Brisse The Blue Between - handcrafted jewelry and bead art http://www.bluebetween.com "vj" wrote in message ...

Just a quick note to mention that there are a few new htings up on my site. Donna did a great job on photos, too! I'm heading out shortly to teach two back to back classes today, I'll be back home in about 12 hours. In reality, all I feel like doing is sleeping. LOL! Thanks for...

Hi everyone. I read along regularly and post sometimes, but I forget to let you know what I have up for stretches at a time. My goal has been to have one auction posted per day. Of course, as usual, I get going really well and something in life decides to take precedence. But anyway.... I have...

Please send me some good vibes today. We are going into the hospital to tell my dad he has a brain tumor and I don't know how he will take the news. Thanks everyone. Roxan

hey all... I would appreciate the sending of any spare Good Vibes our way. My DH got laid off at his job last month (on my birthday) and my own work is not exactly bringing in lots of cash flow at this moment. Although we continue to actually work harder and smarter than ever before, we could both...

Are there any newbie lampworkers here? If so, please respond to this post and I have a treat for you. Starlia

Nope, no jewels. There's something smarmy in me that likes the wire names and stuff. I looked at some pictures on the net and just had to figure out how to make one of the bracelets. I'm always pleased when things work out right! I think I just amaze myself when I figure out how to do something...

I just receieved my very first polymer clay bead. Here is a link to the auction so you can see it: http://www.justbeads.com/listings/details/index.cfm?itemnum=766557370 She also included some polymer leaf beads with it. The beads are great. Hopefully I can make them into something that will look...

I'm glad to see the Spot Price on silver dropping. It was up to, what.... over $8 at the beginning of April. Now it's back to $6. The lowest it's been in the last ten years was around $4 back at the end of 2001. I'm glad Donna and I postponed the Rio Grande order we put...

I know this has been asked before, and I have gone back and looked, but I'm hoping for some advice for my particular situation. It seems that there is no real consensus on kilns, as there seems to be at least a partial consensus on torches, so I'm really having a tough time with this one. I need...

Well this family almost lost it's youngest (soon to be 3 year old if he makes it that far) son. Home alone with them while DH was helping a friend. Fell asleep (oops on my part) Woke up and noticed kids were in my bedroom (where my beading/etc desk is) and the youngest had opened all of my...

Hi all! I have a couple of sets of beads that I am going to offer only to people here, today. If you want either or both of these sets, be the first to email me! The first one is called Mom's Sweet Sampler. There are 11 lampwork beads, plus matching Swarovski. The beads measure about 8x12mm to...

Thank you everyone for the great feedback you gave me a couple of weeks ago on my website. I've been working hard on getting better pictures, added an "ordering info" page and added a couple of necklaces. So, again, I'm asking for your feedback...is this enough of an improvement, do I need to do...

Congratulations Kalera! (I say jealously! LOL) I wanted that sucker so bad then real life interfered and I FORGOT TO BID! ack! marie~ "For what are we without hope in our hearts..." Bruce Springsteen

YIPPEE!!! I won Kalera's Old Glory set. They arrived, packaged so beautifully I must add, and the beads are all that and more! The colors are so pretty. And she put a little surprise in the package, a lovely blue and green bead. Kalera, I love them! Jan
