Link Library with Melanie

  Back in August of 2007, Art Bead Scene contributor Virginia Miska reviewed an online store that sells high quality leather cord in a Findings Worth Finding post.  Given the popularity of cording nowadays, I thought it was a good resource to remember.  Click here to see the review of Greco Leather Cord in the archives.
