Yes, I’m bored but that’s a good thing! When I’m bored I usually use the time to seek out all kinds of goodies – just to see what’s out there and whether or not it would be worth offering you here. Well – I’ve found a few little places while traveling around today and so here they are in no particular order.
1. Ganoskin.com: What can I say about this site except for the fact that there is a ton of info and great video instructional opportunities here. You actually have to inspect this site for yourself to uncover the depth of it. Guaranteed to have at least a few things hidden within that will have you grabbing your jewelry making supplies and pushing you toward your next “great” idea! While here you’ll also want to check out the BenchTube area – filled with videos that will probably have you busy for days.
2. Auntiesbeads.com: Some great, quick little projects here that includes rings, earrings, necklaces etc. Very simple and ideal for the new jewelry/bead designer to get into fast!
3. For something a little different, hearken back to Victorian times and begin your own collection of unique Rose Petal beads. I’ve included two sites – one without pics unfortunately, the other with images. Often these types of beads are used in Rosaries – a unique way to not only be creative but perhaps include a little aromatherapy in your work.
These sites should keep you happily creating for a short while at least. Meanwhile, I’m going to work on a few things and see if I can’t get some work done here. Hope you enjoy the above!
