Me! I usually wear them myself or give to friends. Isn't it addicting?! There's a seller on ebay with a large selection, I think the id is beadaholique or smth like that Fire Mountain Gems is great for buying a whole lot, I've yet to order from them though! I'd love to know of any other places to get materials too!
Well, show us some of your work. I find making my own jewelry very therapuetic. If you can create something different/unique then try to sell it. It's a very competative market though.
Here are a few things I made. I dont sell i just give as gifts to church members. I am making 10 necklaces for the retirement home they have bingo for the women and need prizes. Its very important to these women. Im an "ametuer beader" but I enjoy so much designing things for my friends and family.
