Last time Jamie was in town the first thing she said was "bring me a bag of your stuff cause I have 20 bucks burning a hole in my pocket". She was pretty much my first paying customer.

And you know what they say about girls with big fingers.

Big gloves.

ETA: thanks Luca!

I need to pick up something next time. So she did come to Dallas?

Yeah, didn't I tell you? A few weeks ago. Only saw her one night though. She was here on (non GB related) bidness.

Yes, you told me she was probably coming, but I never heard any more. Ya know they come to Dallas, but don't make it to Austin. They just don't know what they're missing.

You should come up to Dallas more often, you don't know what you're missing.

I won an eBay auction of 100 Swarovski cyrstals! 4 colors (25 each) with shipping $17!! I am really happy about this. That is way better than I could ever do at the crafts stores.

What shape are they? I used to LOVE the cubes, but they were the most expensive. Do you like the AB ones (that's with the kind of color-changing finish)?

They are the bicone, 6mm. I love those! The AB clears are my fave. I have a gorgeous bracelet of all AB clears 6mm, but a mixture of round, bicone and cone. I also have a really gorgeous mixed color of the same type of bracelet. I just added a dangling charm to them.I LOVE the cubes, but sadly they are the most expensive. I do plan on getting some one day though.

I am hoping to make bracelets and anklets this week.

In case anyone wants to know what we're talking about, this is a fuschia AB cube. NOT life-size!

What do you use in between the beads? I usually used silver, but sometimes I used pewter (I think that's what it was.) We have some great bead shops here. Used to be in there ALL THE TIME. Now it's been years. : (

The bead shops are really expensive, but it's so nice to be able to get your hands on the stuff right away, you know?

What do you string them on? I used, what was it called? The 49-strand, I guess? It was 7 strands of 7 strands, or something like that.

I order fuchsia, black diamond, colorado topaz and light sapphire. I should bring over a pic of the bicone shape.

So far I have mostly used the gold rhinestone roundelles. Or I have alternated colored crystals with clear ABs.
