I am looking for an influx of unusual charms and/or beads, preferably silvertone, glass, mineral or ceramic. Stuff I can use in my jewelry making! I return I can offer:

A big envie full of-

fancy fibers or

rubberstamped images or

unusual text pages (vintage, other languages)or

vintage canceled postage stamps or

some ATCS from my 400 plus collection, by various artists or

unusual/handmade/decorative papers or

a little of this, that or all!

Drop me a line, lets barter!

 Nic,  when Julia left Laddan, she gave me a huge tub of beads.  Most of them are seed beads, but there are a couple of zip locs with some different ones.  I'll look through them this weekend and see if there's anything good and let you know.  I'm hoping I can find something great so I can talk you into trading some Nici art :)

Oh Z, most definatley! I would be THRILLED to make some art for you!

Is there anything special your looking for? I've got all sorts of shapes and sizes of charms and beads I'd love to trade for some stamped images. I also have some old broken up costume jewelery pieces if you can use them.   Just let me know what might interest you.

 Yikes!  I totally forgot to look at my beads for you. so sorry!  I'll do that toute suite.  <----play like i know French  :

Hey Kym; sorry for the slow reply! I'd be glad to make a trade; you can email me and we can set it up!

Nici,

You might know this already, local 'Value Village' thrift (second-hand) stores are super for jewelry.  I have picked up lots of great pieces that can be used in my collage works.  I even found clock/watch parts, and a silver brooch that has hanging hearts, etc. from it - looks quite vintage.  The best surprises are when I can purchase a whole bag full of jewelry for only a few dollars - wow, an artist's dream!  If I do find something in my collection, I'll let you know.
