Hope all are well today, hugs to those of you who need one I really need to do more clearing out but I really can't be bothered! Not got much jewellery making done this week, actually I've done none but I have been redecorating & clearing out so it'll all be worth it in the end. I do need to get ordering some more bits for the charm bracelets as I'm running low on rings & chain.

On a plus note my Fan page on Facebook has reached 100 :T:T As a thankyou to all fans I am offering 10% off all sales from my Facebook shop :j x

Welldone JuJu on reaching 100 :T

Does anyone use boxes for sending their items? I normally just use tissue paper, bubble wrap and a padded envelope for my teapots, but im worried they get broken as Royal mail are not gentle. Ive already had to make one replacement.

Im looking for ring boxes and maybe slightly bigger one so i can send 2 or 3 teapots at at a time. They also have to be quite light to keep postage costs down.
Ive had a look at a few and it seems 30p a box seems the norm but I was hoping for cheaper.

nic2075 i know it sounds daft but dont some of the sites do a reduction if you buy in bulk, if you didnt need them all you could sell some but at least you wouldnt have to worry about packaging for a while,sorry if someones already said this

Congrats Crafty JuJu on the 100 fans! I would follow but I don't 'do' facebook
I am the same as you no jewellery made at all recently, I have been busy sewing.
I am not at the point where I need boxes to post but let us know how you get on I was suprised at how expensive they are.

I got some off ebay 48 ring boxes for £12.00 works out at 26p each. I cant really afford to buy any more in bulk.

Now I just have to work out my postage costs. I might change it all to 2nd class that way it keeps it low for the customer.

Ok, poppy thanks for the advice were do you purchase your memory wire from? ever gotten it off ebay? if so could i have the link please? x

samanthalvsben

and just one more questions, when it says 40 coils of memory wire does this mean 40 separate ones or one long one that i can break down to have them looking like yours, say three coils together?
