Over the past year or so, I've built up quite a collection of silver charms and castings for my "cheap jewelry" line. It's gotten to the point where I have to organize them into compartmented boxes... about half a dozen boxes with 36 compartments each. These are the most useful size of...

I have just been informed that my ISP has turned off their newsgroup server. Any suggestions on the best way to access the group??? I am doing this thru google, but it seems very clumsy compared to the way I could do it before. TIA Armand Vine

Hope someone has a source! :-) There's a teacher at school wearing a neat necklace made with one-hole buttons that *LOOK LIKE* mother-of-pearl. The kids here want to try to make a necklace like it, but one source I found wanted almost $100 for a bunch of them - - not exactly a "kids...
