That's awesome. Thank you too but you did the work. I just inspired...kinda like a real muse. LOL

What a cool necklace!

How fun!

Thank you everyone, for your responses. I went for Fun, and hit it on the nose, looks like. :-) Next, the Christmas version... a WIM... work in mind. Diana

Thanks Sooz!! You *know* how I feel about Cute! (gag) Im plotting a Christmas themed one, a dolphin theme, and an Easter one. Heh heh.. to fun. Jelly beans instead of candy corn... One question, perhaps you can tell me... Im using a nylon stringing material, with wire inside. There wont be a opener thingy.. can i get away with knotting this stuff and putting a dab of some glue on the knot and tucking the loose ends inside the beads? Diana

I don't tie SoftFlex, I crimp it. (You can TIE it---???!!!) And mostly I'm not a stringer anyway, I'm a beadweaver. I use Fireline and stuff. ~~ Sooz To live a creative life, we must lose our fear of being wrong. ~~Joseph Chilton Pearce

Oh. Hmm. I may need to find new stringing stuff. Or learn to crimp, and get a crimper.. yes.. a good one... Thanks Sooz. :-) Diana

You can knot the thinnest Soft Touch (made by Soft Flex) but not the thicker stuff - it won't stay.

Crimping is so easy once you get the hang of it!! The Links List has a couple of tutorials inder the Instructions section.

Learning to crimp takes about 3 seconds. ~~ Sooz To live a creative life, we must lose our fear of being wrong. ~~Joseph Chilton Pearce
