Was it really last year?


Wow. I just came by to post a little and saw it was December 8th when I last posted. I'm still busy with my craft so be sure to stop by the webite and my Ebay sales once in a while. I almost always have beads up on the bay. I have a new finished piece I'm pretty proud of. It's an etched off mandrel heart with sterling heart charm on a hand dyed silk cord all finished with sterling findings. I love it and I'm having a hard time parting with it. I hope to have a few more hearts up by next week.
For you lampworkers out there, new on my site and Ebay, I now have 5/32" stainless steel mandrels. Great for making beads that are silver cored for Pandora or Troll style bracelets!
I've had lots of requests for this size.
Also if you have any finished pieces made with my beads I would love to post them on my site along with any links for your website or other store sites.
And soon to come! I love the look of the hand dyed silk cords I have been using. Unfortunately the girl who made these no longer makes them. I am now dying my own cords and will have them up on my site soon. I may also be including matching silk cords with each focal I sell.
Happy beading!
