An update! haha

Yes, so I've been obsessed with making things lately. What's your point? :P

I've decided, though, that I want stuffs for my birthday and Christmas and what have you from this place. It's a little place that sells jewelry making supplies and things at good prices (and by that, I mean cheaper than what most other places would sell it for). What specifically do I want? Let's do list forms!

1. Swarovski bicone crystals - any frickin' color in their 144 packs or whatever :P
2. Swarovski crystal flowers - again any frickin' color is fine :D
3. Swarovski pearls! Who the hell knew they made these?!
4. Any of these star-shaped beads that are less than 10mm in diameter and are not made of metal. :D I particularly like the natural ones... for example this one. Also, please, no side-to-side drilling. :x
5. Lobster clasps. Why? Because they're hard as fuck to find normally, and when I can get silver plated ones for that cheap, I'm not it like a business man on a prostitute.
6. 1000 pieces (that's 500 pairs) of hook earring pieces because I like to hoard. :P
7. And of course, you can't have earrings without those damn backings! These ones are the cheapest and yet, most reliable and comfortable. W00t! Plus, they're ribbed for your pleasure. ;P lol
8. 1" long eye-pins for making... stuff and jabbing them with it. :D
9. Jump rings, in 4mm and 5mm sizes. Although, the 5mm ones seem like SUCH a better deal.
10. Head pins because they're different from eyepins. hahaha
11. SNAPPY CLIPS! and Barrettes! I mean, who doesn't like hair accessories?!
12. Any of these in any of the nice colors (I prefer just the plain crystal w/o the pearly finish, myself), 1-gross or more in quantity, and 3 or 4mm in size (the sizes are given as ranges, but they're about 3 or 4mm).
13. Silver wire in the 18-22 gauge range, round (not square), and in the longest frickin' amount that they have available (which I think is 25 feet). :P Or, there's always the slightly cheaper half-hard wires, here.
14. Any of these heart beads so long as they follow the "no bigger than 10mm" rule, are plain hearts (no ugly letterings or gold leaf, silver is OK :P), and are drilled from top to bottom instead of side to side, it's fine. :D
15. Leaf beads with the same idea as for the hearts and stars.
16. Flower beads! No roses or anything "fancy" like that... just the regular, 2nd-grade version of flowers with the normal looking petals. :P Please find ones that are either drilled top to bottom or ones with holes at the top of the flower itself (just one hole right through the top petal) as opposed to ones that are drilled in the back or right through the middle. Also, use the 10mm rule. :P I particularly like these. :D
17. And lastly, these two sizes in boxes: small and large.

Regardless, I think I'm going to eventually buy all of these myself. :P Why? Well, because it's all the stuff that I'm going to eventually need to make all the little clay jewelry that I want to make. I think I'm going to be opening up an Etsy shop sometime in August and December (when I get my break) so that I can make back some of the money that I'm spending on making this stuff. :P

Here's what Etsy is: click
... and here's my new DeviantArt page with some of the clay things I've been working on: HanaClayWorks. There's nothing on my Etsy just yet because, well... I don't want to have to deal with shipping from this place. Plus, I haven't gotten all my supplies yet. :P I'll be sending out test packages to you guys sometime soon so that I can get an idea of how much it'll cost and how long it'll take to ship from here. Until then... I need sleep. x____x
