ebay

Today I decided to learn about ebay so that I could order some jewelry supplies, such as wire, chains, beads and pendants.  Found some good stuff.  I'd already set up a paypal account and then had to learn the logistics of bidding and buying on ebay and then shipping my orders to Taiwan.  I didn't have much trouble finding suppliers from Hong Kong which should cut down on shipping time and cost....Phew!  Now I have to just sit and wait....UGH!  

More books!

Got more books while ordering some other things from Amazon...



Taipei trip with my husband AKA the mule

Took a real purchasing expedition to Taipei.  First we tried to find an Antique Mall located near National Taiwan Normal Univeristy, which we found but it was closed. - UGH!  So we headed north to the jeweller's tool supply shop.  Got lot's of stuff to get started with some sterling silver jewelry! Can't wait!



Mobile?

While piddling around the library I came across a book...


and had some beads laying around.  This is what I came up with...



I hung it in my bathroom above the toilet.  Might be Feng Shui...
