Hi Everyone, I still have those two previously talked about bracelets for sale and have just added more. The two bracelets are winding down so if you want them, now is the time. See My Selection Here (Note link may need copy/pasted in bits due to line...

Alright everyone, all the rest of my precious stock is now on ebay item# 2645907224 and the way it ended up is that I have added new stuff made in the last month, 2 new very large pieces as well. Go to www.earthlytreasuresbeadwork.com and look a gallery 14. As I have stated before, ths would be...

I was doing a search for interesting beadwork and jewelry late night and every time I get into sites I have trouble just getting to see anything. Is it me or do people just make difficult sites to see their work? It seems that the pictures of their work is buried deep inside a link or not easy...

I got this information today. I've taken these classes and they are wonderful and I can highly recommend both of these teachers. And I can recommend Asheville as a destination, too. A Touch of Glass Visiting Artists Advanced bead making with James Smircich

I have only recently realized what awesome beads you can make from poly clay (by reading this newsgroup and following links). So it's on my I gotta do next list. Then Candace just goes and gets clay and starts to make BEADS! Just like that! So now I am obsessing. I am going through more and more...

"Beth" May I present myself... My name is Beth. I am almost 51, the mother of two grown daughters and the mother of choice to another... all three are married, and only the ptd has a child, Ben, who is almost 6. I live with my radio station owner/manager husband and...

Jesus Christ doesn't want you to create such Pagan stuff or you won't go to heaven ! Give it up or go to HELL !!!

My challenge consisted of making a very "simple" piece of jewelry without using any lampwork (much more difficult for me than it sounds, LOL). I had to remake the piece three times to get the uncluttered look I was striving for. I scanned the bag that served as my inspiration. ...

It's been so hot and humid here that my primary activity has been attempting to breathe. That's the ONE thing I miss about the apartment: Air Conditioning. Macy, our new puppy (six months old) is doing great! She's very well housebroken, and she has had zero accidents. I'm discovering she kind of...

OK, so, for a week I've been waiting for a chance to go torch. My camera even finally showed up, MORE incentive to get out there and work! Saturday, too much was going on for me to make more than two beads. OK then. Yesterday, I managed to make eight mediocre beads. Sigh. Today, DH was home all...

Hi everyone - I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I've got the book "Beading with brick stitch" by Diane Fitzgerald. In it there is a picture of a gorgeous gingko leaf necklace. This website http://beadingbanshee.com/gallery/necklaces.html has a picture of a similar piece by...

I just did these a short while ago and wanted everyone to see them. I tumbled these myself and have a ton more but without holes. lol Just figured while my neck was on the chopping block I would see and get opinions. Daring aren't I? You can view scans he...

I guess it's OT. LOL! Anyway, I am on my way to go pick up my new camera, an Olympus C-5050. It's a far cry from my old, but trusty, Mavica FD-91. I'm sure I'll have an interesting and steep learning curve. I just placed a $6,000 order with Wale Apparatus. My heart is still pounding! It's SO MUCH...

Friends, Patti introduced me to this group and although I devote most of my online activity to either ISGB or Facebook, I still receive postings and thought that you might want to know that Patti passed away quite unexpectedly last week. If anyone wants to send a card to her husband, Lou, and...

With shaky hands and trembling knees I try to find the words I need. On this day a very sharp knock as I answered.. I wonder what's in this box! The post lady was very pleased and asked, would you mind to sign here please? I carefully scratched out my name... Signed, printed as they are the same. I...

We talked about this a while back and it seemed like a popular idea. And I saw it was mentioned the other day as well - so I say let's do it!! Let me know if you are interested in participating. Once I get an idea of how many are interested etc I'll set up the details. Now put your beaded...

Does anyone else have a hard time coming up with names to call their jewelry pieces? I do, and I don't know why. Sometimes the name just comes to you, but most times I am at a loss. I can sit here for hours and never come up with a name to call this stuff. What the hell is wrong with me? I...

Back in the early 1980s when my stepchildren were about 10/12 years old, we collected stickers together. Now, keep in mind that back then, finding ANY kind of decorative sticker was somewhat of a coup. Suzy's Zoo, Mrs. Grossman... Those were all in the future. As with everything else I do, I...

I check the online version of the Atlanta paper on a regular basis to see what's up in the old town. Look what I found today: http://www.ajc.com/buyersedge/content/buyersedge/features/0703/19beads.html Kathy K
