Jewelrey findings

Subject: Looking for jewelry findings

I was wondering if anyone knows a great place for jewelry findings. What I'm looking for is some type of bail or cap (or whatever they're called) that allows you to make necklaces from flat marbles, lenses from glasses etc. I'm decorating the marbles and lenses with pressed flowers, but need a way to make into a necklace.
Thanks Jo

I don't know about exactly what you're trying to find, but someone on here recently told me about Fire Mountain Beads. They are awesome! I requested a catalog from their website and just got it. They have EVERYTHING! Check out their website. http://www.firemountaingems.com/default.asp

I love Firemountain Gems. I order from them often. They also send catalogs out all the time with new offerings. Their service is exceptional, they ship quickly

Another one of my suppliers is "General Bead", www.genbead.com. If you ever get to San Francisco, this is a must see bead shop. It has two floors of beads, beads, beads. They offer classes also. They have more than just jewelry findings, items to make beaded handbags, all kinds of glues and stones. Great place to browse.
Enjoy

Hi Eileen

I saw charms on www.frostcreekcharms.com that were a pretty good price.. the price listed is for a dozen.

What are your bottlecap pins? (Archiver's Note - See Ideas Archive Board)
