Tools - Chain Sta Bracelet Holder - (1)
Bracelets with dangles and charms are fun to make and fun to wear - but don't you wish you could see your creation as you make - have it maybe hover in mid-air while you decide the perfect place to put the next item - not slither away and turn over while you are attaching the next dangle? Well - this is the Chain Sta (pron. Chain Stay) - two pillars, on a base, with alligator clips (pic 1) (pic 2) to hold your bracelet suspended so you can design, and get all the charms hanging tidily in the same direction. A ruler on the base acts as a reference, and a little channel holds your beads until you need them. (Both clips are supposed to face forward, I've turned one in the picture so you can see it better.) Bracelet as shown is most definitely not included. Make your own - that one is mine! Base is 9 inches long, pillars hold the bracelet about 6 inches above the base. Also makes a handsome display. Some assembly required (really easy assembly!!) By the each.

JSP Silver Polishing Cloths
The instructions read: 1. Polish your Silver, Gold, Platinum (yeah, right) and other metal articles with the inner white cloth. 2. Buff the article with the outer clolored cloth to restore the patina to your precous treasure. | Not being entirely clear on the meaning of this, I went looking for some silver to polish, as my platinum is all currently out at the dry cleaners (yeah, right). Lo and behold, the white side shines up bright, and the coloured side, still shiny and clean, but not quite as "new" looking. You can have it both ways. About 2 x 4 inches. Each

Battery operated - and much to my surprise - it works pretty good! Uses 2 AA batteries, (not included) and comes with two tapered diamond tips. Use for enlarging the holes on pearls, stone beads (hold the bead in a container of water) (it keeps the tip and the bead cool, lubricated, vastly increases the lifespan of the diamond tip, and eliminates dust. You do NOT want to breath in the dust from grinding pearls.) Actually powerful enough to clean out lampwork beads! If the tip gets too wet, it slips, so don't hold too deep in the water.

Tools - Bead n Spin - (1)
A wooden bowl that spins on a base. Pour your beads into the bowl, and spin it slowly with your non-dominant hand, holding a threaded hard needle in the beads with your dominant hand. Spin towards the needle, and the beads will slide onto the needle, pushing each other up towards your fingers. As they get to your fingers, stop and slide the beads past and down the thread. Any long, rigid needle works, but there is a J-shaped needle is more effective. I have always considered myself to be beadspinner-challenged - but this works for me. It does require there to be a fair number of beads in the bowl, so not so good for little packages, i.e. Delicas, but great for full hanks or mixes for multi-strand necklaces. 5 inches tall by 4 inches across. Nice weighty bowl spins easily. 100mm x 140mm By the each. .

Tools - Bead Stopper - (6)
The greatest thing since the invention of sliced bread. Use the bead stopper instead of tape a stopper bead to prevent your beads sliding off the end of the cable before you are ready to attach a clasp or whatever. Fabulous, fabulous, fabulous. Squeeze the rings and open up and clamp on. So effective and simple, you'll wonder why you didn't think of it yourself. Stop thinking about it and just buy some! They are so useful - you get 6! (Illustrated use - beads and cable not included. We didn't actually need to tell you that, did we?) (6)

Perfect Positioner for Stones
For precision placement of rhinestones. A tacky ball allows you to pick the rhinestone up, position it, and put it down onto the adhesive, where the stronger adhesive grabs it and keeps it there. Odd concept, but it works. Two in a package (You get one package - so you get two positioners). See their instructions here.

Tools - Pin Vise - (1)
A handy handle for holding whatever. Loosen the collet - insert drill bit, awl, pointy thing - whatever you need a handle for, and tighten collet. One end takes items with a 2 mm or larger shaft, the other end goes smaller. Very useful if you are the sort of person that is inclined to adapt things as tools as you need them. By the each.
