The trunk show - muy bueno!
I've had some folks ask me to make twisted cane for them and I wasn't really sure how to go about doing that - what to charge, how thick or thin to make it, it seemed a little daunting...so I looked around and found some existing cane that I've already made - and grouped it in similar color groups...So, if you want purples, or pastels or olives, I've put them together for ya...If you don't make beads but just like the looks, feel free to bid. I remember reading Schermo's page and she said someone wanted to just buy her twisties and have a jar of them to look at...they are pretty just 'as is'...The 5 auctions will be 3-day only, and start tonight...
I had a great time this weekend at the show, the beads sold very well and I got to demo all weekend long...I didn't sell everything, tho so I'm going to put up some sets for ya'll this morning so you too will feel like you're there...heh...
I'm on my new computer and am still learning my way around...ever get into a new car and can't find the seat adjuster or don't know how to work the A/C knobs? that's where I am - I can still 'drive' but I don't know where to find all the stuff...Email especially is really odd looking in Windows XP Professional - so I'm still digging through your emails..I try to repsond early, i really do - but being out of the house all weekend and now having a new email app, its thrown me off...so if you haven't heard from me in a few days, you will!
OH- Good news for ya'll - I've started adding prices to the Gallery...this project will take awhile, so bear with me - I've been trying to go back thru my PayPal receipts to see what each set was sold for...The sets that I sold on eBay are not ones that I remake - I've added the price for what they sold for, but when I put sets on eBay I don't think its fair to remake them for at least 6 months after the listing..Now, I'm sure other beadmakers will tell you that's crazy - but my philosophy is that if you see a set on eBay and you know I'll remake it for you the week after it closes, why would you want to bid on it in the first place? Plus I don't think its fair to the high bidder to be remaking sets - they paid to be the first person with the set, and I have to respect that...So you may not agree or even like it, but I think it's fair so that's what I'm doing...I started on the Blue gallery last night and it took me forever to get most of page 1 completed...cause I can't find what I need in this new email layout - the folders are weird and I can't figure out how to 'drive' around yet...so i'll work on this in the evenings while watching CSI or something...

Hi Donna,
Will you let me know if you got my email from yesterday? I have a funny feeling that my emails to you may be getting blocked by your spam filter. Anyway, I did try to answer you last night, so let me know...I got your's just fine.

Howdy Sue!
I did get your email from Saturday, but nothing from Sunday or Monday...I haven't answered yet cause I've been giving the sets you listed some thought...I'll email you privately and we can discuss our strategy...there are tons of possibilities as to how to get you everything you want...isn't it cool??...
