Please help me pay for ...um, my life/college and whatnot!

So, my beads have arrived and I've made a few sample necklaces, which I'll post photos of soon.

Basically, I'm doing necklaces (or bracelets, or if you really want them, earrings). I'm trying to make a (tiny) amount of money from them. I have lots of colors and can special order others. I have various sizes and shapes. I also have pretty good design skillz.

I use sterling silver findings because it's the least likely to cause an allergic reaction in people. I use clear elastic thread to prevent breaking, though I can special order jewelry wire or chains. All of the beads I have are currently Czech Druks or Cubes or Japanese Delicas, all glass. I'm thinking about expanding into wooden beads, pearls, and crystal. If that would interest you, let me know. I will never work with true bone beads because of social/political issues, but anything else can probably be done. Price will mostly be dependent on bead types and amounts, not on the amount of time spent on a project. I can do chokers, multi-stand, incredibly long pieces meant to be double or triple looped, whatever.

So if anyone wants to throw a little cash my way for handmade jewelry bits, comment and we can work something out. I'm honestly not even making minimum wage doing this, I'm just trying to make some little bit of spending money in my free time. Think about it, have ideas, comment here.
