a great find!

[elmoe.livejournal.com]

i don't post enough, but my main craft is cross stitching. i'm trying to get into other things and seeing everyone's posts on here is really inspirational. i do make jewelery and soap (which i've posted a few times) but i don't have a good work space for jewelery and soap is really expensive and time consuming (plus i have no where to sell it right now).

anyway, this wasn't the point of my post. i wanted to show everyone the awesome find i got for $20.00 at a yard sale on sat. it was a nice box of beads, wire, findings and the tools to make these really cool bracelets. unfortunately there are no instructions on how to make the bracelets so i hope someone here can recognise the tools or maybe the bracelets (even though the picture i have of them really sucks). here are the pictures of what i got for the $20.00 and the bracelets. *WARNING; the pics may be a bit big cuz i only resized them in photobucket. sorry!*

and there are some stained glass tables my mom made for friends and family members. her first one is the one with the 3 tulips and she's only made these 4 so far. they're below the bead pics.

any help would be greatly appreciated! thanks!
