Gotta love the metal beads, even though the plating sucks. If your project won't be in contact with the skin that much, they are perfect with RAW!

I actually used mononfilament fishing line with these. I know, I know, but it tolerated the pulling tight with the sharp edges of the metal beads and the 2.5mm bicones.

Oh Happy Day!!

a packet from Out On A Whim, or Whimbeads, as it is more commonly known, arrived today in my PO box!! In it were two darling silver spiral cat charms, a cute gold cat face, and a 'made with love' silver heart! I already have plans for all of them...and will try to get some earrings made tomorrow with the larger cats. They are all adorable!

And then there are the seed beads, in colors I DO not have-hooray!! Some awesome brown AB 6o, which I cannot get to photograph true to save my life, matching 8o, multi-iris 8o, SL olivine 8o, a SL green which I think is more emerald (think Wizard of Oz Emerald City!) and a mix called Natalie's Jungle Wench!! I love all of them, and have my wonderful friend in Australia, Lynn, to thank for this lovely surprise!

Someone's Got a Birthday Coming Up

Who's Special!!??

Me, that is! Jeanne M of Ohio sent me her beautiful, gorgeous, drop-dead killer-diller twisted copper and gold wire bracelet!! Can you tell I love it??So comfy, too. Don't know if the pics show it, but she tapped the pieces, so that the twists catch the light like charlottes!!

What a nice, nice Friend!
