Beaducation news and giveaway

sign up for the newsletter! It is always fun!--jean

Beaducation has a new fab. embellishment and I love it!  I heard and read about it yesterday by email, because I faithfully read the Beaducation Newsletter, which you can sign up for on their site.   Right away I wanted to tell everyone who reads my blog about their latest fun offering, because it is so perfect for gifts, for prettying up your own stamped jewelry designs, and for the upcoming holidays!  I would SO love to receive this myself as a gift! Therefore, when I was offered the chance to give it away my blog, after I wrote Kate Richbourg and told her how super I found it, and asked to publicize it, I got the chance write about it AND to give it away in a Beadcation giveaway! I am thrilled! Watch the Beaducation video to see what I am so excited about! It's simple,it is easy, and it adds so much punch (is that a pun?) to your personalized jewelry!
The winner of this giveaway will receive an assortment of rivets, a setter, and a power punch pliers!




from Beaducation, below:

These rivets make cold connection a snap! These can be used to snap two pieces of metal together, to add a little color to your blank or as a birthstone accent! 
For the Crystal Snap Rivets, you will need to create a 5/32" hole for these rivets (a bit smaller than 4mm). Create this hole with our Power Punch Pliers, then simply hammer the rivet down with our Snap Rivet Setter and our Plastic Mallet on top of a Bench Block


from me:
and sign up for the giveaway by leaving a comment HERE, today or by next Tuesday early AM, on my blog.
If you are the lucky person chosen, Beaducation will send you a packet of multi colored rivets and a setter as well as power punch pliers for you to work with on your own jewelry! How super is that!
This giveaway from Beaducation will last for one week, until next Tuesday, Nov. 1st! I will announce the fortunate winner then!

wowee! that is cool! Especially for somebody like me who is intimidated by power tools. I have a small pair of hole punch pliers that I use all the time, but that hole punch looks awesome!

This is so cool! I opened the beaducation video from my email today and was filled with desire for this nifty way of riveting... So much quicker than drilling and hammering.

Kim--the story of my life--maybe the next time I do a giveaway we will both get it right! I was actually offline when the giveaway winner needed to be announced --we had no power! I had to call a friend and get her to help me out by going in to my blog, using her computer, from all the way on the other side of the country! :0)

A lot of attention to detail goes into bead work, good stuff.
