This week, I got some beautiful jewelry making supplies from some of my favorite shops.

The largest haul this week was from CCSynopticvisions. She has a lot of unique items in her shop and the prices can't be beat! Most of her items are in the $2-3 range and many are less. My purchases from her include some hot pink beads, a set of MOP coin beads (1 focal and 4 small), some frosted lilac cube beads, square silver tone bead caps, a pair of little sheriff star charms, a pair of awesome heart charm connectors, a set of 7 daisy slides, a pair of pretty bar slides with pink crystals and the silvertone bangle bracelet for beads. Included as gifts were the rice pearls and a gorgeous polyclay focal bead. Be sure to check out her shop...I resisted for a while, but now I'm hooked on slides!

And while we're talking slides, I also got a stunning selection from Sliding Along. These are all elegant pieces and all have crystal accents. I bought the butterflies with clear crystal, the heart designs with aquamarine and the antique silver snowflakes with pink. She included the other 4 heart design slides in green, pink and crystal AB. This is another shop I can get lost in and not spend a king's ransom! Her prices on the slides are in the $2-3 range per set.

Next on the list is a pair of charms from Corner Stop. I love making anything with charms and when I need a fix, I always check out what Lisa has first! This set is double-sided with a coffee cup on one side and "I Don't Do Mornings" on the other. They are so ME! Lots of you may know Lisa from lisasshop, charminglittleshop and cornerstore. She has now combined all of those into one great shop with all of the same great quality and selection. Most of her charm sets are around $3.00 depending on the charms and how many come in the set.

And yesterday's mail brought the final package for the week. I couldn't resist these two great focal beads from Rhis Bits and Beads! The navette is a top drilled Fancy Jasper that is 60mm long. The coin bead is Red Scenic Jasper and is drilled side to side. It is 30mm. I paid around $5.00 for both of them and can't wait to see what I can use them with!
That's it for this week, but you'll have to buckle your seatbelts for next week...I've been a very good Etsy shopper this week and have several packages on the way!
