I've bought these beads from a website and would love to know how to make some! They're made of polymer clay, but I've never really done anything with it before. So, all you clay experts, how would you go about making them? Just remember you're talking to a...

Hiya. Someone asked about the bit I was using to drill those small holes and thought I would post it. I remembered where I got that little drill bit that I have been using on my shells and the beach glass. Didn't dawn on me that I bought it when I got my Dremel, ( from the same guy), and my drill...

Ok, there's the M&M thread, the chocolate orange thread - this one will be the topper. Found a chocolate cheesecake at Sam's Club - made by Cheesecake Factory, in conjunction with Godiva. Some sort of anniversary edition, in a gold box. It's about 7" diameter, 4" high; a bazillion calories per...

I bought a hank of seed beads for a necklace, but they are SO TINY, I can't use them. I don't know what size they are (bought from a wall of hanging hanks), but a strand of regular sewing thread will fit through it ONCE. Look like Delicas; cylindrical, thin walls, dark aqua color (like the...

When I was in Florida, I saw something in a gift shop that I really wanted, but didn't get. Now I'm obsessing over finding it. It was a smallish white porcelain/enamel sign about 8" long and a couple of inches high that said ARTISTE. Yeah, I know it's silly. But I want that for my studio. I have...

i need to find out step by step instructions on how to make beaded curtains

Hello all, This is my first post to the group. I make beads from polymer and precious metal clay and am trying to figure out what the best shows are for selling handmade beads. I am on the west coast and have done BABE in Oakland, the Nor Cal Bead Society show, the Portland Bead Society show and...

Just wanted to share. A lot prettier colors than on screen. And they're all the same tone (matte pearl?) type bead. And the green matched this one bead I was looking at for a necklace with a black/green bead I have. Now, should get my glasses on friday and it'll be on to creating (right...

I got these beads http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2675884340&ssPageName=ADME:B:EOAB:US:6 but didn't have any beads to mutch them. They look even purpler, but way bluer than any amethyst stone I have. So off to the beadstore I went. The most expensive one was between stops I...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=34070&item=2683509548 See the swirls in the bumps? Is that just a characteristic of the type of glass, or are they put there? I love boro glass; it always has these swirls, and even the clear(ish) pieces look like they have a hundred...

What is the difference between acrylic and resin beads? I know I don't really like acrylic beads; they don't look nice, work up nice, or look very nice. But, I've seen some really pretty pieces, and found out they were made with RESIN beads. They still had hefty pricetags, but I'm well...

Here is a website that can help many who are wanting to tumble rocks or other materials to make beads. It is a good site to learn about many minerals and there hardness. http://mineral.galleries.com/minerals/hardness.htm Harry My Ebay Auctions are at http://snipurl.com/3okw

Not sure if this is OT or not... I have a lot of fine silver wire that is just a wee bit too large for what I want to do with it. Could I get a draw plate and pull it down to about 30 gauge? Tink
