Description

The listing, Giant CURLICUE Bright SILVER Wire Beads -- 1950s Poodle Style! ~THREE w/ GIN~ has ended.

Get THREE of these FABULOUS wire beads with Get It Now ... otherwise you win one bead, two at 1,500 credits or more. A fun handful of bright silver plated curlicues... reminds me of the "poodle" styles of the 1950s! A vintage idea with a modern twist, HUGE, about the size of a quarter (sorry, forgot to add a ruler photo).

My Get It Now price is about what you'd pay for a $3 gift card on Listia, shipped FREE to the US and Canada. I have a separate listing for these that lets you buy FIVE with Get It Now. To see all my listings, simply type in "natahoa" to the search box!

See the photos of the necklaces I made and imagine THESE beads instead of the blue! My last two photos also show the silver tube beads and crystals I have on Listia.

These GIANT beads would make a GREAT focal point, pendant, or pair of earrings (see photos) I also have on Listia.

The bracelet shown is a Euro charm bracelet, but these are NOT Euro Charm beads, they are for REGULAR beading. I used a bead reamer to bend the inside of the beads to get them on the charm bracelet, but it was a little challenging. I'm sure you can do it too, but keep in mind it will take some work and the correct tools.

These do NOT have holes in the middle, so stringing the wire or headpin straight through also is a challenge ... but SO worth it. The jewelry is FUN, really contemporary, and absolutely unique!

Put in a little watch bid and come back to get 'em! You are bidding on the BEADS only, NOT any of the completed jewelry shown.

I have a TON of great beads and findings for jewelry makers .... perfect stuff for your unique, high-end holiday jewelry and gift-making adventures! To see all my listings, simply type in "natahoa" to the search box!

Free US and Canada shipping. I ship on Tuesdays after my listings end Sunday and Monday nights ~~ check them out for some potentially GREAT bargains!

Questions & Comments

dont you think it makes more sense to give 4 beads with the get it now. 3 is an odd number and most beads are given in even numbers. Is there any way you would give 4 beads with the get it now?

Well, that's true, if you need them for earrings three doesn't work, unless you make earrings and use the third bead to make a pendant. The problem is that these are expensive beads, so if I do too many the GIN price becomes prohibitive.

But you make a very good point. After these listings end I'll do a four-bead and six-bead listing, instead of three and five. I appreciate your advice ... always GREAT to get feedback from buyers, and I really mean that!

in your other auction you have 4 if the winner bids 2100 or more credits and your get it now on here is 2112 so why would it only be 3 beads for the get it now? sorry i am asking be cause i want them and i would do the get it now but only if there were 4 beads with it. I dont mean to be a pain i am just asking.

Good catch! I try to keep all the credits pretty much the same. It's only a 12-credit difference, though.

These are new to Listia, and I always sell them low at first and then generally raise the price a little after they've sold once or twice. Maybe that is what happened. The next time the 5-bead listing sells I'll adjust everything so it's even.

Tell ya what, if you win these I'll send you a little prezzie, a few headpins with balls or small silver ball beads, just let me know what you'd prefer.

OH, I bid on the first ones I saw, I could have gotten them now. Well, I'll be watching!

I had them for a week without GIN but then listed two lots, this one for three and I have another GIN listing for five of them. They've been popular and I've sold several lots, but I have quite a few and more coming. So, if you miss them just watch for my relist!
