New Plated Findings
 |
Simple Solutions! Plated metals are an attractively affordable solution. We have gold plated, silver plated, copper plated, silver filled (a step up from plate and my personal fave right now), gold filled, bronze, as well as nickel, gunmetal and silver tone (which is just silver colored) findings, chains and wires. |
| Questions about what to use, and what will last? Ask us! We've tested many of the products we sell to see HOW LONG the plating will last, if it irritate our skin, and will share our "findings" with you, so that your project will last as long as you intend it to! |  |

New DVD!
Bodhi Bracelet!
 |
This is an "old-school" technique called macrame...
come back to life in the age of the power bracelets, spiritual wellness
and men's jewelry! In this video, I'll show you how to do a series of knots with your choice of gemstones and how to end with a button clasp or with end crimps! It's a relaxing and fun technique that we call the "bodhi" bracelet, because bodhi means enlightment or awakening! I hope you experience such when you make this project! Come pick one up in-store or online! |

New Tools!
 |
New Pocket Size Crimper! No matter how many times this tiny tool sells out, we keep re-ordering them. I finally asked Jason, "why do we keep re-ordering this tool when we carry the regular size?" He said, "cause it's cute!" Well, then.... I guess that explains it all. Sometimes a tool is just for function, but when it's cute AND functional, then you just gotta have it. So if you like tiny dogs, you'll probably like this tiny crimping tool. This is used to crimp the 2x2 tubes that fold over the end of your beading wires. We like it because it flattens and folds the crimp into a compact tube that's easy to crimp cover! And yes, I have one. I keep it in my work pouch that I wear strapped around my waist. I like it cause it's small... sigh. Teeny Shop! |

New so New, and in Limited Qtys!
Handmade Czech Glass Beads!
 |
Still here in the "What's New" cause I'm
the proud co-designer of these babies! They are handmade glass beads
from the Czech Republic. Oh so pretty! Amanda and I designed this line last spring, and they are here in time for this spring! They take 2-3 seasons to get here because they are handmade one at a time, then they row across a vast distance to get to Hawaii. |
 |
We spent hours deciding on color combinations, sizes and shapes,
to make beads that we loved! It's quite an exciting and risky process
because we have NO IDEA what they will look like – and we are
super happy with our “babies”. Come see and enjoy with
us. Because they are handmade, we have limited quantities of each one, and won't be getting any more. Unless we go to the Czech Republic again. |
