  2. I love working with the cat's eye beads, but that crackle glass bead looks real pretty too. I have seen some stuff made with them. So it would be a tie between those 2 which one I would like best.

  7. Sadly don't enter me. I love the 2 glass styles but the acrylic... well I'm making something for my young niece but I already have enough bright stuff for that. And I already have letter beads for her name - in at least two styles - I bought some as soon as she was born and I was told the name. (Luckily for my budget, her first name is only 4 letters.)
    Regardless, thanks for your generosity... And I like this link to nbeads.com . It's new to me - I did not know it was even possible that I was missing a "bead-y" newsletter but here it is. Just in time before Ornamentea.com closes for good ! during their close-out they've got 40% off and other deals... And save any tutorials you like! They've got some amazing beads, and a wide variety of other jewelry-making items. (I have no affiliation with them, other than I like their shop, and I bet there are a couple of readers here who did know about this closing sale. So there ya go, at Ornamentea.com . Oh the owner is lovely too. That can make all the difference, IMO.)
    Thanks again Mortira!! Way back, before I had too many beads (before I knew it was possible to have "too many" beads! ; ) I got a couple of items from you and it is so kind of you to share. I know it is a real gift, more than "just" free - it adds to your workload but so many people find it to be... well, Inspirational! :)
    PS your deep aqua and red w/gold bracelets, in the first two photos, are almost exactly like a cuff I've made - blue lined black or something w/silver and blue-rainbow-y glass pearls. I know it as a pattern but I don't recall from where. Anyway, it proves that you have good taste :) Mine is, of course, still lacking a clasp - for reasons that I am mentioning in another post of yours.

    1. It is so sad when a bead shop closes. Each one has it's own unique selection that is really special.

  8. I really liked some of the clay beads, especially the tubular shapes. See many possibilities with them. Also, I like some of the "woven" beads which were wood covered with wool or cording and then some were waxed. A really good giveaway. You've been so busy yourself and had some great posts.

  11. I love all the glass beads, especially any with a special treatment like luster or electroplating -- bring on the bling! And seed beads by the pound has a certain appeal as well. :) Should I be lucky enough to win this fabulous sweeps, you could reach me at kettapeters at gmail dot com. Thanks for a fabulous opportunity.

  12. Do I have to choose just one? I loved the porcelain beads, the glass pendants and the ring settings. I can keep going. What a fabulous prize. Oh the things I would do with all those beads.
