What I was describing is like hanging them on a chain. This new gold soft
flex wire looks like fine gold chain and look wonderful with just one bead
hanging from it.

KLUNK

My favorite use for furnace glass is to take fine chain, snip it into
1 inch pieces, wire-wrap a swarovski crystal onto 1 end of a section,
thread the furnace glass onto the piece of chain and then wire-wrap
another crystal onto the other end of the piece of chain, and repeat.
In the end you have a chain necklace with crystals interspersed and
pieces of furnace glass sliding around between the crystals. very
fluid, very pretty. I love jewelry that has motion to it.

How about hanging them on silver or gold-filled chains for earrings?

I do that with the triangles. I use very fine silver chain. I
take about an inch, run it through the center, and bring the
ends together. Then I thread a tiny jump ring through both
ends and close it. The jump ring is suspended from the
loop on an ear wire. They look cute and sell well. What
more could you ask! ;-)

Yep, that's exactly what I was thinking of.

Hmmm, I used some in this bracelet:

The slices are strung so they slide back and forth on crystal AB seed
bead. It's fun and clackety.

Spent the weekend playing Army, so I NEED some bead time!!

Ok I watched G.I. Jane while scanning and putting up auctions (as close as I
can relate to your experience. LOL)

Love G.I. Jane! I don't ever go in for movies like that, but I rented it a few
months ago and watched like 5 times before it had to go back the next day.

I think maybe it was the train wreck factor of watching him beat the tar out of
her--it was the only situation I've ever come across where I was totally okay
with that.
