A Worthy Cause


You may recall that a few weeks back, I started going through my beading supplies and picking out things I wouldn't be using. Although I tried listing some silvertone stuff on Craigslist, there really isn't much market for silvertone. It really is best for folks who are learning new techniques and skills, so you can mess up the cheap stuff instead of precious metals, which are far more costly. Anyway, in the Etsy forums, there is an organization soliciting donations for beading supplies. Basically, a group of kids are going to be learning to bead and using their projects to start a small business. So, you betcha... I'm sending this stuff to them!

If you also happen to have stuff to donate, let me know and I'll email you the mailing address separately.

How cool! I haven't made any jewelry in a really long time, so don't have any supplies anymore, or I'd donate them too. Excellent way to encourage creativity and rid yourself of clutter!

Wow! If I come across some extras, I'll let you know.
