New Gemstones and More Chain
Posted by Kevin on October 08 at 01:03 pmToday, we’re back to adding new gemstone beads AND we’ve continued to expand our chain and findings sections!

Huge Rainbow Fluorite
“HUGE” seems to be the theme of the gemstones Ali has chosen to add this week. There are quite a few large rondelles and rounds. There’s also some good focal material like new jade carved pendants, lapis off-center donuts, and a yellow turquoise carved oval pendant. If you’re looking for an inexpensive accent bead, we’ve also added a couple of rounds in the $3 range that should do the trick!

16mm etched jump rings
If you’re lucky enough to have been on vacation for the past two weeks, you’ve missed the biggest expansion in Lima Beads history. For the first time ever, we added chain, findings, and a huge selection of metal beads to our site. This week, we’ve continued the expansion with new styles of chain, crimp beads, and some cool jump rings (check out the 16mm etched ones!).
We’ve got more to come! Between now and the end of 2009, you’ll be seeing new gemstone beads almost every week, lots of new chain (especially sterling), more metal beads, more findings, and…. wire! Stay tuned

Leonard P says:I’m very pleased with everything purchased thusfar. I would like to see a greater selection of Cabochons; There are so many beautiful stones, (if you buy the top qualities), like Pietersite, and Sugalite, as well as fossilized stones.

Linda Talbott says:I love Lima Beads … still learning my way around the “shop,” getting to know folks, etc. My first order will be a bunch of brass beads, which I’ve been waiting awhile to order (next payday!). The community, grass rootsy aspect of Lima Beads is great too.
Best ~ Linda
