I've had some that have lots of clasps and spring rings with different finishes, and lots of small metal beads - others like this one in the box http://www.lisayangjewelry.com/2015/06/rectangle-stone-beads-6-jewelry-design.html that was almost all filligrees, stampings, charms and beads. They're always different. What I really love though is that when I am trying something new and think I need a bobby pin with a glue pad - that's where I look to find one - or I need a wire guardian - there's a few in there. It's stuff that I don't want to carry a lot of - but might want to use or try. I've bought at least 5 by now and I'll bet I'll get more...Lisa Yang Jewelryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16851061995303198057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3154120257955860216.post-969806543930880082015-06-18T08:50:20.760-07:002015-06-18T08:50:20.760-07:00I ordered a boss bead bag and wan't very happy...I ordered a boss bead bag and wan't very happy with mine. it had lots and lots of odd ball findings....single earrings, half of a clasp, charms with the loops missing, totally useless stuff. There were a few nice beads but also tons of very small beads that will never get used. For the money, I could have purchased several strands of very nice beads on clearance and been much farther ahead. I sure won't buy that again! <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3154120257955860216.post-67626079516288098562012-07-16T10:51:26.563-07:002012-07-16T10:51:26.563-07:00I had that experience too - there might be a singl...I had that experience too - there might be a single earring finding. But I had a lot of matching bead caps and beads. I also had some toggle closures that had only one half - but I think that is pretty cool. It makes me try to think of how to use what I got instead of 'only' using it as a toggle because I have two halfs and that's what I'm supposed to do with it. Lucky you for winning one. I don't think I would buy one again - but I will definitely invest in some of the things I got in it that I never heard of before. I'll post some of those things in the future.Lisa Yang Jewelryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16851061995303198057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3154120257955860216.post-68932835407564414472012-07-16T09:51:44.026-07:002012-07-16T09:51:44.026-07:00Hi Lisa,

So far I haven't used anything. I did get a couple of large. I will use the two large wooden beads to make beaded beads. All in all I was disappointed with most of the bag. Of course I won it, so I am not out any money. I just wish it contained more that I could use.Annettenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3154120257955860216.post-46298816928536641642012-07-07T07:28:00.657-07:002012-07-07T07:28:00.657-07:00So glad I'm not the only one!

Very true about the earrings - and they are also great for spacer beads in necklaces and bracelets.Lisa Yang Jewelryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16851061995303198057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3154120257955860216.post-52204564232371011272012-07-07T07:25:19.134-07:002012-07-07T07:25:19.134-07:00Thanks for dropping by and your nice comments.

I pick through and make random-looking bracelets, and often there's pairs of beads that can make some neat earrings, too.Robynhttp://www.drakestail.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3154120257955860216.post-37988918162461384042012-06-29T03:56:07.801-07:002012-06-29T03:56:07.801-07:00Hi Lisa, love this post.

It feels like I'm sitting at the kitchen table with a cup of tea just chit-chatting with a friend. That's the way a blog should feel. Take care! Next time my kitchen table - I hear it's suppose to be hot - so I'll make ice tea! ;-)Clairehttp://www.abouttobeme.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
