Try everything, Mocha. It's sometimes surprising what ends up being really great looking.

And thanks for the compliments everyone. Aw, shucks.
It's fun to share crafty stuff.

My mom wanted some fancy, sparkly earrings for a wedding so I made her a couple of choices, plus a couple of everyday ones.

My BFF is heavily into beading. She doesn't live close by. She has showed me and told me things, but how do I start? Well, found out that a bead shop opened here in town recently!!!!!! 'Bout walking distance. So I have a new necklace and bracelet and tools and supplies and . . . . This is going to be addicting?!

For all of you craftsy people, I stumbled across the website www.etsy.com It's a little like ebay, but it's all homemade and crafts kinda stuff. I have been really enjoying myself looking around and shopping there. Here is a link to one person's "shop". CLICK! She makes beads and other stuff out of polymer clay. I bought some stuff from her and she was just SO nice and so reasonable on the prices of everything. I was very impressed with her so I thought I'd share! :-)

Thanks, Heyltslori. I'm checkin' it out. Found something already I want. Going to pass it on to a friend who is heavily into beading. She can sell there . . . .

After my cousin saw mom with the last pair on she has asked me to make her three pairs!!! Now I have to figure out a price. I may just end up charging cost and postage, it'll cost a bit to ship them from Ontario to BC unless I can package them safely and small. Nice to make a sale though.

Stupid question Heyitslori, those polymer beads are really cute and I thought I might like some for some key chains I plan to make, but what coin is that next to them, I'm not familiar with American coins and am not sure if it is a nickel or a quarter.

Jasper, it's a dime, the smallest of our coins. It's fairly small maybe as big around as my wedding ring (inside.) Ok, take that back, a penny fits inside my wedding ring, so the dime is smaller than that.

Thanks War, our coins are pretty much the same size, I just didn't know which one it was. That gives me a frame of reference now.

You're welcome Jasper. LOL, I didn't realize how hard it was to describe the size of our coins til I tried with the dime!

My 9-yr-old daughter and I began making beaded bracelets in July for a craft show in the town where we spend every summer at our cottage. It's been really fun, and it is truly addictive. We've sold quite a bit just by walking into places, but I am considering taking the bracelets on-line. A fellow crafter suggested etsy, too. GMTA!! I don't know where to begin with that, though. Any help would be appreciated in getting set up on-line. Thanks.

very pretty, does the elephant have a special meaning? I know they are lucky but wondered if it was something more
