How about a Poll?

How about another poll? I used to sell on ebay, but with many changes and business going down there for a while, I stopped. Now it seems that business is picking back up for beads on ebay, so I was wondering: Do you buy beads on ebay? I'm trying to decide if I should give it a try again. Take a minute and answer my poll, if you like! Thanks!

I used to be into eBay, but I got tired of all of the "snipers" who hang out and wait and outbid you at the last second. I have bought a couple of beads from eBay, but only because they had a "Buy Now" option and I couldn't get them anywhere else...

I bought (will buy) your beads on ebay but not in general.

I use to purchase all my lampwork off ebay but I no longer purchase anything from ebay just because I don't care for the bidding process. I do like the buy now function but I pretty much purchase everything off etsy.

I used to buy beads a lot on eBAY...but that was before I was so addicted to Etsy! I do stop by there from time to time.

I used to be an ebay bead queen, but have stopped shopping there since I discovered Etsy. I really prefer just being able to buy what I want and not have to wait for days or sit and monitor the last few seconds of a auction to make sure I don't get "sniped."

I always bought my beads from you on Ebay...didn't know you weren't there anymore. I'll look for you on Etsy now. I always buy "buy it now" anyway.

Bead Soup Blog Party!

Welcome to the 3rd Bead Soup Blog Party! What is a Bead Soup Blog Party? Each beader was paired up with another jewelry designer and tasked with sending the following: ~ A focal ~ A special clasp (not just a lobster claw) ~ Some coordinating spacers or beads Using the focal and the clasp was mandatory, but we could use anything from our own stash to round out the rest, and choose to use the coordinating beads or not. You may recall my partner was Margot Potter ; click this link to see the blog post I wrote of what she sent me! Here's what I made! Dangly earrings! Come see what the rest of us made! 1.

The Tacky Earring Blog Hop

Diana Ptaszynski had a great idea, instead of a Tacky Christmas Sweater blog hop, a Tacky Holiday Earring blog hop! I was on it.  I had ideas right away.  I had so many I had to control myself.  You can buy these for $15 each, too!  Here we go! I found these awesome wreaths in the miniature Christmas section in Michaels, and they go perfectly with silver and copper colored plastic beads! These trees were found in Michaels, on an end-cap - I assume they are scrapbook or card making supplies, but make fantastic earrings.  The holes were a little small and far down, so I had to make LARGE loops.  Paired these with cute little gold colored jingle bells! And, finally, the ones I had in my head the moment she announced the blog hop.  Dr. Seuss sparkly puff balls with ribbons.  The only thing that would have made these better for me is if I could have found the red ribbons I really wanted to pair these with - don't get me wrong, the silver is cool and all, but in my head they w
