I`m working on a new batch of jewelry for a boutique that consigns my items, a whole bunch of jewelry for my college`s Christmas Fair and a couple of custom orders. Whew!

You can also read my blog if you want to know what I`m up to!

I buy them online, on Artbeads.com. They have some very pretty colors and sizes and they sell them individually. On FireMountainGems you can get a good price if you buy them by the gross (144 units).

I recently bought myself a whole bunch of Swarovski crystals:




Apparently I`m addicted to Swarovski crystals. Just look at the perfect, shiny facets! And the gorgeous, deep colors! And they are incredibly sparkly!
You see, anything sparkly is very good to me. And since I looooooove shimmery little things, I ordered a whole bunch of crystals. And I made a pretty rainbow for the picture and all...

Yeah, I`m crazy.
Do you have a craft website/blog? (83 posts) - Posted On : 26 Sep 2006 03:52 PM Edit Post | Report Spam
Thanks, Jan! Yes, I did the design, photos, and descriptions for my website. It was part of my graduation project for my graphic design bachelor`s degree.
My boyfriend did all the programming, thankfully, because I wouldn`t know the first thing about that!

Hi, I just noticed the oddest thing with one of my posts in the forums. Here: http://www.designstolove.com/thread/24/what_are_you_favorite_swarovski_bead/colour.aspx

I`m pretty sure I didn`t post that!

Hi there! I live in Costa Rica, Central America. My family is from Peru and Germany, though. We moved here a loooong time ago.
I have a question (7 posts) - Posted On : 14 Sep 2006 06:23 PM Edit Post | Report Spam
In that case I don`t feel like it would be a problem at all. Most of the time, magazines tell their readers that they can copy/reinterpret their designs freely if it is for the reader`s private use. That means you are not supposed to copy a piece you have seen somewhere else to make a profit. So, unless you are selling pieces created with a copyrighted pattern, there is no problem listing them as your designs.
Also, general techniques (such as stringing, or wire wrapping) are common knowledge, and they can be used by anyone. Specific patterns (for weaving, looming, or embellishing) can be copyrighted by the person who created them and are not intended to be reproduced for a profit.
This is a complicated subject, but I think you are doing the right thing by asking first. I hope someone else can also share their knowledge in the forums!

Maybe you could add to your description the name of the person who created the design? You could even explain what parts you modified and adapted, so everyone will get the credit they deserve.
How do you store your beads? (36 posts) - Posted On : 14 Sep 2006 01:45 AM Edit Post | Report Spam
Oooooh, I have so many beads. I keep them neatly stored in organizer boxes, the kind used to store nails and screws. I separated them by type (Czech glass, freshwater pearls, Swarovskis, seed beads, semiprecious, etc) and sometimes by color.



I also use little screw-top jars and small boxes. I`m always searching for new containers for the tons and tons of beads I keep purchasing!

You can see which beads are which here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/pavoreal/169964653/
