Buying Beads on Ebay

I just had great luck with purchasing beads on Ebay. I think the secret is to look for someone who is selling their personal stock for some reason or another. All the combination of beads and stones are much better quality that I have found at any of the local craft stores. Interesting colors and sizes, a few more stones than I know what to do with but I think the stones could make some interesting additions to work I am doing. I have always loved the look of rustic against the sparkle of crystal. Took me a good solid hour to organize...and that word is somewhat being used loosely. It at least has some illusion I know where and what I have. Today's project will be trying to make the spiral bracelet using stretch cord so it could just be pulled off and on. Arthritic hands would enjoy being able to skip the trying to hook the clasp. It could be a cute Youtube video the things I do to try and get a bracelet on.
