Looking to swap for crystal and stone beads/pendants!

brightcircle — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 18:04:41 GMT

I LOVE crystal and semiprecious stone beads and pendants. Does anyone have any they're willing to trade? I have 2 issues of Beadwork magazine, 2 issues of Belle Armoire (art-to-wear) magazine, 1 issue of Ornament magazine, Beadwork Creates Beaded Beads book, and 500 Necklaces book by Lark Publishing. I'd be happy to trade for any or all of these. Reach me via this thread, or send me an email at my profile. If I'm doing something in violation of the terms, please do let me know. I did read the dos and don'ts, but still feel a little shaky, as I've never traded here before.

greetings

I am very new to beading and love peyote. I found a splendid pattern on the internet but it calls for 230 different colors of Delicas. Probably 200 of them are only quantities of 1 and 2. And of course, some of the single colors can be dropped. Even still...cannot afford that amount of colors.

But...the project got me to thinking about bead exchanging or selling so that is how I got here.

How does this work? I would love to get someone's left over Delicas.

Thanks! Mary in Wisconsin

Lots of seed beads to trade for beads or craft supplies

I have several tubes and bags of seed beads (picture coming soon) that I don't use. Hoping to trade for beading or crafting supplies of most types. I'm especially looking for flat marbles which are clear and do not have the luster surface. Pictures are great but not absolutely necessary.

Got the House in New Mexico!

Up for trade: Bunny Baby CF Originals Art Bead by Christi Friesen

brightcircle — Sat, 12 Sep 2009 19:12:51 GMT

My beautiful Bunny Baby polymer clay bead needs a good home. She is in beautiful condition, and, being a genuine CF Original bead, is one-of-a-kind. You can see her here: http://bright-circle.deviantart.com/art/Bunny-Baby-120659643

Just to make things clear, I am the owner of the bead, not the artist. That credit goes straight to Christi Friesen of CF Originals. Bunny Baby is merely staying with me until she finds a good home.

The retail price for these beads is around $45, but the true value is more, because there will never be another Bunny Baby. :)

I'm looking to trade for back issues of bead magazines, swarovski crystals, 16 gauge silver plated jewelry wire (NOT craft wire), clear non-luster glass flat marbles, nail polish (it's a good craft/jewelry component), stone bead strands...

I like a lot of stuff, so if what you have isn't on this list, post anyway. Can't know what I want unless I see it, right?
