Hi Everyone!
Yes! It's me again... Cari...! LOL
Just wanted to post my site for everyone to check out ... and if you have any questions.. please just ask! If you have any comments... I would love the advice and feed back.
I love the Braidlets! I enjoyed reading your bio. Ya know I haven't ever tried wire crochet. It would be very interesting to learn. And of course, then, my stash would include beads! LOL!
Thanks for looking.... I really do appericate the feed back... and if I can help any one interested in wire... let me know I am not an expert, just personal experience.
Sounds like Wire/Bead CAL might have to be in our future so we all can learn! LOL!

Many thanks for the kind words...
I use a 26 gage wire and the Company is Artistic Wire... I purchase all of my supplies online but I think that Artistic Wire has a search to find locations near you, that sell their wire. I use a non-tarnishing silver wire... it really adds to the sparkle of the beads. Hmm and the hook is a steel size 5. But you can use most any size hook with wire... you just get a different look. And sales are great! Last month I sold a few to a customer in Australia .... I'm internationally known! LOL
But I feel the need to encourage others to try the wire... Although Crochet Wire has been around for 8 - 10 years (Thats a guess on my part) There isn't many crocheter's that use wire. So I suppose I'm here to tell you that I used to be one that thought it was to hard to use wire and crochet with it... Not True! I still amaze myself by all the different things one can make and well adding beads to the wire and POW! Colors and style and well I could go on and on...
I have be tinkering with an earing design wo go with the Braidlets...It has been interesting to say the least. I will keep everyone updated on the earings and leave a post when I have something worth posting about them...lol
Thanks again everyone.... and please if you have questions, I'll do my best to answer them for you.
