Description

The listing, Win up to 30 Silver Plate Wire Guard Crimps ... make your Jewelry PERFECTLY finished! has ended.

Win at least 10 (5 pair) but 30 at 2,600 credits, of these silver plate wire guards and crimps. As with all of my items, with FREE US shipping!

These add a wonderful professional finish to your jewelry. Use them at the end of a necklace or bracelet to attach the string to your jump ring or clasp (see photos please) with a tidy, professional finish! Plus, no falling apart after you crimp!

Please see the photos to see how these work. They are intended to use with regular beading wire like Soft Flex (my favorite), Beadalon, etc. I'm sure they also work with Tigertail or other "plastic" beading wire but you will still need to be careful not to cut the wire as you crimp. Metal wires (like Soft Flex and Beadalon) will not break when crimped.

I included lots of photos made with the beads and findings I have on Listia ...search natahoa to see a wonderful selection including:
* sterling and silver plate earrings wires
* headpins with balls
* jump rings
* silver and stardust beads in various sizes
* my WILD (and wildly popular) poodle curclicue beads, and of course
* my super popular silver tube beads (last photo)

EVERYTHING you need to help you make fun, gorgeous and high-end jewelry. My other listings also showcase many of my designs, which you are MOST welcome to copy or use for inspiration!

Free US shipping.

Canadian buyers must send me $2 via Paypal (only) per package (regardless of how many items you win). So, win a bunch and it's only $2 to ship them all!

I ship on Tuesdays after my listings end Sunday and Monday nights. To see what is ending this weekend simply type natahoa into the search box and use the drop-down menu to list them "ending soonest." Good luck!

Please don't ask me to fan you, and please use discretion in whom you fan ... scammers LOVE to have lots of fans. I only fan someone after a transaction.

Questions & Comments

Lol...I didn't want to ever sound mean, but when someone comments on an auction of mine and says "Fan me back"...I won't. I fan people I like and want to follow, always, but not because I'm ordered to.
Your jewelry is beautiful, can I ask where you get your beads? I LOVE the kiwis!!!

I agree. I wish Listia had never started the fanning thing, I think it's kind of crazy. I only fan people once I've had a transaction with them so I know they are legit. But, everyone can do as they like! I just drives me a little nuts when I get HUNDREDS of comments from people demanding that I fan them. That has slowed down a lot since I started asking people not to do that in my listings.

I get all my stuff on ebay. In fact, I'm trying to win some ebay gift cards now so I can buy more! If you ever list one, let me know!

In the meantime, check out all my listings:

Actually, I saw your listings and they're beautiful. I may be listing a lot of my supplies, because my husband and I just split up n he left me with no money, no furniture...etc. Don't think I'll be making much jewelery in the near future-lol. If you want to send me your email address, I'll show you what I have before I list it.

I have a ton of beads and supplies too, so I'm really not in the market for them. I buy these findings in bulk to post on Listia, but Listia keeps me so busy I don't actually make jewelry very often.

You might want to try to set up some listings on Yardsellr, particularly if you have a bunch of stuff you'd like to get rid of fast. It's a good site that gets a lot of action for beads, just be sure you have good photos and complete descriptions of what you are selling. You can get some cash for them that way, as opposed to credits on Listia.

May 24th, 2012 at 10:23:22 AM PDT by

I make jewelry and have never seen these before and I shop everywhere! What are they called and can i buy them somewhere else? Not enough credits to bid, but Interested in these. Will watch if you have more.

May 26th, 2012 at 6:32:57 PM PDT by

I get them on ebay and I can't remember what they are called there, the chinese sellers make up kind of rediculous names for them. Basically they are crimp beads, so if you search crimps on ebay you'll find them eventually,but you might have to slog through hundreds of listings to find them.

Please check all my listings for beads and findings! A BUNCH are ending tonight and Monday night and sometimes they are really nice bargains!

I'll check eBay too. Thanks

May 26th, 2012 at 6:34:00 PM PDT by

That's where I get them. I started using them a few years ago when I stumbled on them on ebay and I really love them. I really like the way the end of your necklace looks so clean with them, and I also feel like they are more secure than other ways to crimp or tie off the ends.

Be sure to check all my beads/findings listings, you might find something else you like. Have you ever used the stardust beads, they are a really nice alternative to plain silver spacers!

These are awesome!

So glad you like them, good luck! I also have them Get it Now, just search natahoa in the Arts & Crafts category to find them.

May 27th, 2012 at 5:34:01 AM PDT by

I've never seen these before your listings either. I know it's a lot to ask, but if you find the time, would you post a little more detail on exactly how these are attached? They look fabulous but I don't want to buy something I don't know how to use. Thanks..(or maybe send instructions with the product)

May 30th, 2012 at 1:35:24 AM PDT by

the photos show it all. You just loop the beading wire through both end and can attach a clasp (or whatever) to the round part of the crimp. Then you crimp both ends. Everyone loves these things, I do too!

Please check out all my beads and findings. To find them, simply
* Search natahoa
* Specify the Arts & Crafts category to see only my beads and findings.
* List them "ending soonest" to see what is ending this weekend, often very nice bargains!

Do you have these listed GIN anywhere? I want some and if the "price" is right maybe I can get some mailed with the beads I got from you....

May 31st, 2012 at 8:54:19 AM PDT by

Yes, I have a separate listing for these GIN. It's easy to find them:
* Search natahoa
* Specify the Arts & Crafts category to see only my beads and findings.
* List them "ending soonest" to see what is ending this weekend, often very nice bargains!

May 31st, 2012 at 4:48:10 PM PDT by

I found 2 listings for these and neither one says GIN...I followed your instructions so not sure what went wrong

May 31st, 2012 at 4:54:19 PM PDT by

The listing ending in nine days has a Get it Now option. If you are using a cell phone to browse, you may not be able to see it. I don't use a cell phone browser so I'm not sure what the problem is. Perhaps you need to update your software or change your settings.
