Don't Waste Anymore Stuff!!!!!

Hey! Beaders,

What do you think of this....will solve several of my problems

The "EZ Bracelet" bracelet sizer is a must for every beader.

• Make bracelets that fit the first time, every time!

• No more re-stringing because it's the wrong size!

• No more wasted beading wire!

• No more wasted crimps!

• No more wasted time

Bidding on Beading

I've been doing a bit of bead watching over at eBay, I love these, the peridot is one of my favorites.

For buying beads this is not a bad way to go, especially if you want quantity. some of the sellers have been operating there for quite some time.

These are such a pretty color, so cool.

Get To A Beading Exhibition If You Can!

Local artist Audrey Stanwood to exhibit at TV3 gallery - Medford Transcript

Whenever you see beading on display at exhibitions or craft galleries or even craft fairs, make sure you take a good look, these are the places you will get inspiration.

Everyone sees color grouping differently and there have been time when I would never put ceertain colors together but when you see the beading done by someone else, it can change your mind.

There are just so many wonderful combinations of beads and each time I see an exhibition I get inspired.

If you happen to be in the area of this exhibition, try to get along to see it.
