I know what you mean abo...Lol at the rubber link! <br /><br />I know what you mean about waiting for beads that you don't have a specific one in mind, but you'll know when you see it. <br /><br />I thought I had a specific set of beads for my Winter Beach bracelet initially... but I couldn't figure out why it wasn't "clicking" - then I had the ephiany that I was trying to capture my feelings on that walk and less the exact details of the day, once I let go and stopped being too literal my bracelet came together.<br /><br />The "actually no bead budget" situation I find myself in at the moment is interesting in the way that I'm looking at new releases that I can't have but want, it's definitely helping me evaluate what's important in my bead buying, I think of all the things I currently want, the priority is going to be the copper bangle and stoppers from Trollbeads.<br /><br />We shall see!<br />Mars xxMarshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07211092166880573199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1835147532569240962.post-30564852581562725342015-04-17T08:20:20.718+01:002015-04-17T08:20:20.718+01:00Ooh cool I've just looked this up!
There is...Ooh cool I've just looked this up! <br /><br />There is a jewellery equivalent I would love to have but in no way I can justify right now, it's a bead core lining machine, makes inserting and shaping your own 1 piece bead cores a doddle!! But it's a lot of money - but less money than a bead kiln which I would also like one day!<br /><br />I'm not trying to get a torch and oxygen concentrator at home as I enjoying renting a bench in my local workshop and don't have to worry about having the space... sadly space is not an argument I can use against the kiln or the bead core lining machine as they are both quite small!! Not that you need a lot of space for the torch etc but there's a lot more health and safety considerations with those pieces of kit!<br /><br />Hope your patience pays off, it looks like a great piece of kit for you!! Jewellery workshops have the big metal mamma of it, used to impress patterns into metal - if you search ring making on the blog there's a few pictures!

I didn't have a project for them when they first came out, but was happy to snag two in the second wave :) Well, I wasn't so patient for the second one :D<br /><br />I've been waiting pretty patiently for the beads for my bird feeder, camping, and zombie bracelets. But that's a bit easier since I don't have specific beads in mind, it's more a feeling about whether the beads are right or not.<br /><br />I waited patiently for the last metal link for my X bracelet. That took me about 8 months I think. That last rubber link did feel like it was taunting me a bit.

I have an identical row sitting in my bead box, plus one extra funky one with an opaque blue core and no clear overlay. It took me two years to collect all of them, but I got all of mine at RRP too. And I still have to very sternly tell myself that 10 (or 11) is more than enough and stop myself from instinctively grabbing every one I see! ;-)Kimberly Campbellnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1835147532569240962.post-47455010900899348422015-04-16T11:31:17.817+01:002015-04-16T11:31:17.817+01:00I can see why you're smitten.
