Sterling and Swarovski Can't Post

We had a busy holiday.

A lot of the bali sterling left, as did swarovski crystals. It was sort of surprising, since it seemed the designers and crafters were working up until Christmas Eve! We are restocking now, and we'll give priority to your needs!
  • I will need to place an order for more bali sterling in January, toggles and beads, so please let me know what you need or want. Pre-orders get a nice discount, and 500 grams or more get *very* nice discounts :) All beads are hand made, they vary between each other and batch to batch. Also, availability varies.
  • The "Silver Club" will go into effect for this order. Pre-purchase your sterling at bulk rates, and you can pick it up by the piece when you need it! Purchase a $100 or larger Silver Certificate, and you can pick up your silver when you need it, at the lower rate -- and toggles and beads are the same per-gram price -- an additional savings! Let's say you know you use about 500 grams of silver in a 3 month period. You don't know what you'll need, but you'd like to get a lower rate. You can buy a 500 gram certificate, lock in an $0.80 gram price, and then pick up your silver when you need it (all you pay is the sales tax). You hear we have a new shipment in, and you stop by. You pick 152 grams of sterling. Your certificate is debited (now 348 grams left), and all you pay is the sales tax on 152 grams x $0.80 cents. You have a rush job, and need a few beads and a toggle. You stop by, pick up 10 grams of sterling, and still get the $0.80 price, and pay only the $0.56 sales tax.
  • I placed an order for Swarovski crystals. Clear in a variety of sizes, and a few other colors like lt Siam (a nice red), aquamarine, and such. I have no idea what will actually come in, but I'm expecting it before the 1st. This time of year its _very_ hard to get swarovski because, apparantly, people are starting to work on the june wedding pieces. If there are colors and sizes you want or need, or think you'll need in the next few months, please let me know. I will try to stock them. Swarovski is sold in *large* bulk packs which vary by bead size from 144 to 1440pcs per pack, and is thus *expensive* to stock so priority is given to pre-paid preorders.
  • A large order of sterling wire arrived. The most requested sizes are in.
  • Coming soon -- restocking on crimps, fancy crimps, and headpins. These may or may not arrive before the 1st.


We hope to also have a full color selection of Delica's within the next 2-3 months, again, priority is given to your color preferences. *HUGE* discounts are available on pre-paid orders of 50 or more grams per color. Go in with friends, put together group orders and SAVE BIG TIME!

CLASSES -- We'll be posting a class schedule after New Years. Again, priority is given to what you want to learn! Let us know!
