In search of Jewelry Supplies!

Capt. Nicodemus Gooding Thu Oct 30, 2008 5:53 am

Good day all! Once again I am inquiring into the sage advice of my fellow Steampunks!

I have always found the beautiful artwork displayed by our fellow artisans on etsy, and while I fully support buying diy, I would like to make some of my own pieces of art to wear and give to friends as gifts and such.

However once again after scouring the aethernet I have come up short in finding what I'm looking for, so finally I come to my request:

Do any of you have any suggestions for procuring jewelry making materials? Wire, gear, cogs, skeleton keys and beads are easy enough to find, but I would like to find some of the delightful steampunk-ish mounts, charms, pendants and findings, and no matter where I go to look I turn up short! Could you please Help? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated, and thanks for it in advance!

PS- As the Brass Goggles forum has returned, I shall also be posting a copy of this thread in their forum, as I'm not sure how many of our kin are still utilizing our Spare Goggles.
