| I am a big fan of the power of the Internet and
I have collected many links to places I love to visit for fun, inspiration
and knowledge. Below is a collection of some of these places. I will add
to these links on a daily basis, so please make sure to hit refresh when
you visit again to update the page. |
|
| Some of
my favorite places to buy beads and related items on the net: |
| Czech Beads
- you must have a wholesale license to buy from them, but they have great
prices and service. |
| Caravan
Beads - they have some of the best selection of Miyuki beads around. I
have been ordering from them for years and have been consistently happy. |
| Halstead
Beads - you must have a wholesale license to buy from them, but they
have great prices and service. |
| Veripack
- I buy all my boxes from them. They have great prices, reasonable
shipping rates and fast service. |
| Bob
Kibirian - He sells on Ebay and has some of the most fantastic
Swarovski and vintage beads ever. He is also a great guy..one of my
definite favs. |
| Rainbows
of Light - A good place to buy Swarovski Crystal and Pearls. |
|
| Some of
my favorite places for Inspiration: |
| Jewelry
Making at About.com - I have found some of my best inspiration from
all the folks on the forum. The only downside is that there are lots of
popup ads..but the information and knowledge here is well worth it. |
| Florida
State University Microscopy Photo Gallery - Totally unrelated to beads
or jewelry but some of the most beautiful eye candy ever to be seen by the
human eye. You have to see some of these items to believe them. |
|
| Some of
my favorite places for Information: |
|
International Society of
Glass Beadmakers - This is one of the best places to get information
and feedback on many aspects of hot glass working. |

of information on fusing and slumping of glass |
