Hi,
I would like to decorate with beads a cover for a mini BIC lighter ...
Does anyone know where to find the more simple model in metal ?
I am located in Belgium but I am OK to buy on internet of course.
Thank you everybody ...

All you need to do is find and empty lighter. rip off all the metal
parts, tape a piece of paper around it past the top of the lighter. Get
a candle, melt wax into the tube of paper. Let cool. Peel off paper,
rub down wax until smooth and VOILA! you have a bic blank. I have a
bunch of them for the lighter cases I do. And the nice thing about
this, it you know people that assimilate lighters, they won't this
because it's a non-working facsimile. And there's no parts to catch
your threads.

And for another tip - it's 18 beads per row for a mini bic & 20 beads
per row for a full sized bic. This is using japanese seed beads. If
you use any others it may vary depending on the beads.

Any more lighter questions?

When will it get lighter earlier in the morning? ;-)

Usually around dawn. Depending on what the weather's like. And the
later in the year, the earlier dawn arrives (I know, who invited her?)

Later,
