Description

The listing, Stuffed bead box has ended.

Okay, here's the deal. Here is an empty bead box with 6 compartments. Every day, for the next 6 days, I will stuff one compartment with something different. On the seventh day the highest bidder wins. Each compartment will have a minimum of 20 beads. If they are too large to fit I will put what I can in the compartment & put the rest in a plastic bag, so no limit on bead size!
YOUR job is to give me suggestions, because I literally have SO MUCH beading stuff it CONFUSES me! The only things I won't consider for this auction are plastic beads. Ready? Let the bidding begin!

Questions & Comments

I like seed beads and swars!

Cool. Would you prefer seed beads that were all one color, or one of my custom blends?

a custom blend sounds interesting.

Added Tuesday, April 24: 2 oz seedbeads in Amazing Amethyst Blend. Enjoy!

Added Wednesday, April 25: a variety of semi-precious gemstone beads. These incude rose quartz rounds 5-6 mm, 2 DIFFERENT sizes of magnesite rounds, 2-3 mm & 5-6 mm; red aventurine rounds 5-6 mm; and picture jasper rounds 5-6 mm. Not sure exactly how many, but A LOT more than 20! Enjoy!

Added Thursday, April 26: long, polished shell beads, more than 20. If no one has a suggestion, then tomorrow will be either an assortment of silvertone/silverplated beads, glass pearls or fiber optic beads. Want something different? Speak now or forever hold your peace. This is not a comment auction, BTW, more like a Cathy-doing-research-on-what-is-really-wanted auction. There are three more sections to be filled, so if you have an opinion let's have it! :)

Added Friday, April 27: glass pearls. Now, several of these pearls are pretty big, so they will be coming in a plastic baggie. This caused another issue, though: without the big pearls the compartment was no where NEAR stuffed, so I grabbed some more pearls & kept adding until the compartment was LOADED! That IS the point of a stuffed bead box auction, right? That the compartments be STUFFED? Only 2 compartments left to fill. Anyone want to suggest something to fill the last 2? Enjoy!

Added Saturday, April 28: Czech glass rondelles! I don't have any Swars, which was one of the first requests, but I have a LOAD of these beauties. I counted out 20, my minimum number, remember? And they filled the compartment only half way. Well, that just wouldn't do, so I added more & more until the compartment was filled. How many, exactly? Who knows? I didn't count beyond my minimum, so lets just say: A LOT! I've seen these on auction for hundreds or thousands of credits for 15-20, so GOOD LUCK!

Added Sunday, April 29: a mixture of red, yellow & orange glass beads. NOT fire polished, but still Czech glass, very pretty & at least 20 of each one:)
