I remember seeing some information on the board about where to find different styles and colors of beads for tying spinners. Can anyone remember or help?
Thanks

All of the tackle companies sell beads, Cabelas, Stamina, and Janns Netcraft are just a few. There are a couple of places that retail beads for crafts, JoAnn Fabrics, Minnesota Fabrics, Michaels Crafts. Try this one online.....www.firemountaingems.com
this company sell just about any kind of bead that could possibly be found.

I have found that Jo Ann's Fabrics has some of the best selection of beads around - and very reasonably priced. Also, as mentioned before, Walmart offers a fine selection. Ben Franklin stores in their material department have them. If you want to go mail order, Stamina has been an excellent source with quick response time. Most of the material shops have beads that are faceted - which IMHO provide for better light refraction and, therefore, make for a better harness. It's great fun and very rewarding. Much success. ET
