Great giveaway. Love House of Gems, and I just love the Rondelle Faceted Chinese Glass Beads!
ReplyDeleteI just love the huge variety of gemstone beads and chains. The yellows, browns and greens remind me of the upcoming hot summers irrespective of latest trends. The teardrops and briolette's are my favorite. My mind is already scheming on the myriad possibilities that they can be combined in. I especially like the fact that the site actually writes about where and what the particular gemstone comes from.
ReplyDeleteI find the sterling silver butterfly shell pendant really really lovely. Its beautiful colours make for a nice and delicate pendant or bracelet. Email: pearlypink at ymail dot com
ReplyDeleteGreat great giveaway. My favorites are the pave' beads. I especially like the American flag tube. May have to order a few of those.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway!!! I just love all the pave beads!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win and I love reading your blog! I too like the House of Gems and I especially like their ceramic beads. They really compliment my polymer clay focal points and finish off the necklaces with a classy look.

Trying this one more time before I give up. I love the lamp work beads and am fascinated by the inside strip faceted beads. What fun it would be to design a necklace or any piece of jewelry around them.

I love the Gem Stones. And like a beginner I started with my ABC's.(& Loving Green as much as I do ) I checked out the Aventurine. They have a beauriful selection. I browsed my way all the through the Jade, the Peridot & right down to Zoisite (which was a new one for me). Thank you for your inspirations and giveaways. PJClouse1@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteThanks for sending me over there. I really liked the ceramic beads, white with dark brown - oh, delicious. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI was fascinated by the gemstones. The peridot, the green amethyst ,citrine and Imperial topaz were my favorites with the topaz just being a dream gem. Thank you for such an informative blog.
ReplyDeleteI love them all but the Briolette Lavender Blue Color Teardrop Shape Faceted Glass Beads are stunning! karendoc@aol.com
ReplyDeleteLove the Amazonite beads. Just finished some cabs of this material and am in need of some quality beads. Thank you for the opportunity to win.
ReplyDeleteGood morning. i love most of the natural beads but my favorites are sapphire beads!!
ReplyDeleteGreat selection of gemstone beads! Thanks for sharing this website with us :) It was hard to pick a favorite, but I chose the round smooth sodalite beads as the beads I would comment on. I havent made any jewelry with sodalite, but I have a sodalite necklace that I would to make a bracelet and earrings to go with it. Love your blog btw. This is my first time commenting on one of your posts. I do have some difficulty getting to your site from the emails you send me. There doesnt seem to be a link to get me here. I have to copy and paste the address into my browser. I have learned a lot from you though. Thank you.

DeleteI just love the look of the Chinese turquoise beads. My email is miriam0856 at gmail dot com. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI love the 'TRIBAL HANDMADE SILVER, FLOWER PENDANT, APPROX. 19.9X22.5MM' :)
ReplyDeleteHouse of Gems has some very nice things. What made my day was that they have 4.5mm split rings in Sterling as well as GF. This is just the right size for most everything I create. Split rings allow me to adapt the closure piece (toggle, magnets, etc) to the customers preferences.

It's difficult to choose just one favourite, but I love the amethyst round smooth and faceted beads as well as the sterling silver toggle clasps made in Bali style.
ReplyDeleteThank you for this giveaway.
