Link Library with Melanie


 Way back in April of 2007, Tari Sasser shared with us one of her favorite vendors that supplies her with colorful cord, findings, and beads like the ones shown above, which are a perfect fit for her colorful handcrafted ceramic beads.  Check out her Findings Worth Finding post about SatinCord.com and check out the site to see what they have new since that post!
 
And now, some brand spanking new links from some of our beady friends:
