I saw that auction yesterday!  I LOVE their work and I can't believe how little some of their beads with the detail that goes into them!! I wish I could bid on their beads and Corina's!!  |

You may have to have a quarter
Lori, with that many days to go - a dime may not get it!
I love the presentation.

Nice choice on where to spend the dimies Lori!! What wonderful craftmanship, display, and presentation!!! I guess I don't pay attention when dimensions are given for beads, I guess those are VERY small!
I also wanted to say about Corina's bead size. When I saw one of the pics in her book, you know the one with the m&m's? I didn't realize how tiny her beads are until I saw the m&m's!! How they get such detail on such a little bead astounds me!

Lori - what a set! Maybe we could have a group bid and pass it around! And still 7 days left. They certainly put a lot of thought into how to package and present this. I've nevver seen anything like it. Jst gorgeous!

Please, no offense intended,,, but this is a stringers w** dream...
The only problem I would have, is I would just want to save it all, just the way it is and never make anything!
Wowowowowow. I really admire what this seller is doing...
I hope she offers more presentations like this... WTG!

I LOVE those beads!!! I keep going back to the auction, trying in vain to get a closer look. I want it NOW! (stomping foot and pouting, if that helps)

beautiful beads...great "package"
I thought it very clever to add a watchmakers "case" of tins with "plain" beads. What I don't get is how she can make ENCASED beads that small. I saw the auction a couple of days ago and have been trying...I think I've made about 10 and 4 of them are nice BUT the smallest is 14mm not 8!
I know...I know...practice, practice, practice. Maybe I'll just wait until the book comes out and she tells us her secrets.

I need Wonka Vision. I want to reach into my screen and pull them out. But if Wonka Vision shrunk them any smaller, I would need a magnifying glass to see them. I just bid again...... back away from the computer Sonya....
