What is the best way to polyeurethane the beads? How do you support them while they dry? Thanks for any advice you can offer. I've got a question about protecting the finish on the dyed wooden beads.

A few years ago those big fabric balls came up at a D&G collection and back then my mom and I developped a way to make them ourselves: http://neu4bauer.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html.

I just got my August issue today and I love the necklace designs. They are young, trendy and quite unique. I have been waiting for Living to do a story on beading.

(kensingtonsupplyco.etsy.com) I've always been a knitter, but I tend to get bogged down in projects that take forever to complete. I've found that jewelry-making is so satisfying because you can make things quickly and take simple items to create absolutely beautiful items! I looooooove the gigantic gray necklace that you made. I've been working on statement necklaces like that, on a slightly smaller scale. So cool! I just started making my own necklaces, too, and selling them at my etsy shop!
