A Slight Diversion and Shameless Plug
I was reading some posts on a sewing forum, and one of the threads is about making ballroom dance dresses. I don't make them, and I won't have to, thank goodness. But in talking with my son's teachers and some of the moms of girls who do competitive dance, I hear the same complaint. Crystals are expensive, and you need a bazillion of them for competitive dance dresses. So here's a good source (thanks, Phyllis!) for nailheads and crystals at good prices: Mr. Nailhead.
I've bought from them, and all the teachers at the dance studio do too, now. They have excellent service, good prices and great selection. So are you looking to bedazzle? Give them a shot. NAYY, of course.
Happy sewing!

Also - if you want a certain color or suface finish and you don't see it on Ebay just contact them. And the best place to see every single Swarovski color (I think there are close to a 100), is the catalog for Fire Mountain Bead & Gema just go to their web site and order a catalog.
Thanks, Anne. I alter a lot of dance costumes, many of which are destined for bedazzling.
Thanks so much for the link! I'm beginning to run low on crystals and am always looking for a new place to shop. I'm adding this to my 'favorites'.
Thanks, Ann. I'll be adding the link to my favorite as well.
