Funny, funny bead rules
your daughter sounds alot like my youngest- she is really into art and is
trying to get me some new shows now I am well again- she pushes her art and jewelry class teachers to visit mywebsite to see what "her mom" makes........ she is my best and sweetest sales rep....... -- susie gibson ******************************************** http://www.reachone.com/sgibson/ ******************************************** "Kathy N-V" wrote in message . giganews.com... Now that Manda's in High School, she makes a point of wearing a different bracelet/necklace combination each day (stuff I've made, of course) Almost all the lampwork is off limits, but most things are okay for her to wear without asking. (and the bracelets on the porcelain arm are okay to give away whenever) Today, Amanda's art teacher came over and glanced at the things she was wearing. "That's real faceted lapis and handmade Bali silver" she said, "How did you come across the Good Stuff?" Manda answered that her mother has loads of real Bali silver, is terribly fussy, and makes almost all her jewelry. The teacher then commented that she had spent a month in Bali on the tail end of a year's visit to India, and had learned the difference between Indian and Bali silver. She then told Manda that I probably paid a ton for the silver, since it's so inexpensive in Bali. "Naaah," commented Manda. "My mom has all her favorite places to get stuff, and I am sure she gets really good prices. I know she would never pay retail." kath comment: snerk - my kid knows me well Casually, the teacher asked if Manda knew any of those sources. Instantly, Manda answered, "I can't tell you. She spent a lot of time making relationships with these people. Besides, she buys in quantity, much more stuff than a person would use to make just one necklace or bracelet." The teacher started laughing and said, "Good Job, Manda!" (She must make jewelry herself - Amanda reports that the teacher wears a lot of Bali, although "It's really chunky and I don't like it much.") Cracked me up, though.

Manda should definitely tell this poor woman about the Links List! Sheesh.

Can't you guys share? I always share my sources -- the ones where I won't be bid against.
