New This Week!

Wildhorses Can Drag You To Beads

Wildhorses can't drag you away from your beads, and this month - they can't drag you away from our new, Wildhorse Picture Jasper.

Wildhorse Picture Jasper - our stone of the month for September - is named for Wildhorse Canyon, where it is found, in the Owyhee Mountains on the Idaho & Oregon border. It is a combination of a slate blue-grey and a caramel mustard colour - a very attractive, earthy combination - so long as you don't think too hard about caramel and mustard together.

As a matter of fact, we have quite a few other new stones this week. In response to popular requests - we now have added Green Goldstone, as an accompaniment to our Classic and Blue Goldstone. Green Goldstone, as you might expect, is green, but still has the shimmer of thousands of tiny stars inside!

Speaking of Green - we have these wonderful Malachite beads - and this is genuine Malachite, not the simulated Malachite (which, while attractive and durable, is just not the same as the real thing.) Genuine Malachite stone, which has always been highly desirable, is getting harder and harder to find. It is a fairly soft stone, so better suited to necklaces and earrings than bracelets.

And speaking of highly desirable stones with a rich history - check out these double drilled Lapis Lazuli stone squares. I am thinking of what an awesome watch you could make with these!

If you like a more neutral stone - how about these faceted Grey Moonstones? Just a little sparkle from the faceting - how awesome would a strand of these be with a black sweater?

Giraffe Agate. No kidding. I don't think it would have been possible to name this anything else! These handsome, faceted stone beads will be a conversation starter for sure!

Twisted beading needles with a collapsible eye. These have been out of stock so long - I've been making my own! But now, we found a new source, and we have them again! Woohoo!

Just for Jaime!

Heart Punches - just for you Jaime! You asked for heart stamps - and while these were scheduled to go live next week, along with a bunch more exciting new stamps in letters and shapes, because you asked for them - we moved them up to this week! It's a set of three different stamps, and you can use on metal, clay, whatever!

More Swarovski Letters!

More crystal letters - so Abby, Tracy, Deborah, Mary and Sandra can have their initials too!
