WigJig Newsletter for 6/13/2004

NEW Products:
We now have six new products in our Internet store.  The first two are "Tub Bright" gold-filled chain which is made to match in color and shine our gold-filled wire.  This chain is shown below in our pictures of On Sale items.  Most of our chain is plated with a "Hamilton" gold finish to make it more shiny for this reason this Hamilton Bright chain does not match the color of our gold-filled wire.  This Tub Bright chain will exactly match the color of our gold-filled wire.

Our other new products are semi-precious mineral beads imported from Hong Kong.  These beads are 8mm round,  "Good" quality and come in 16 inch strands.  They sell for less than $10 for a strand of about 50 beads.  These beads come in Picture Jasper, China Jade, Lapis Howlite, and Black Lace Agate.  The agate, being a very hard mineral will have a few beads on a strand with minor surface imperfections.  These beads can be seen below.

ON SALE:
We update the jewelry supplies we have "On Sale" with every newsletter.  A small sample of the products we currently have for sale at a discount are shown below.  Please click on any of the text below the pictures to view our entire list of sale items.  Select the picture itself to view that specific item in our Internet store.  Quantities are limited for these items so please shop early.  This sale will be effective through June 25, 2004.

This WigJig jewelry making newsletter is provided as part of WigJig University.  We try to provide interesting jewelry projects using beads, jewelry wire and other jewelry supplies.  We hope that these pictures will provide you enough information for you to complete this project.  Some of the skills and jewelry making techniques have not been discussed here.  For beginners, we suggest that you visit our Beginners Start Here pages. These pages discuss the skills necessary for making jewelry in the detail that beginners need. We also suggest that beginners to jewelry making might need to visit the WigJig University College of Jewelry Making Techniques for additional information about some of the skills and techniques shown. 

 Most, but not all of the jewelry supplies shown here can be purchased in our WigJig store.  We try to have a complete selection of jewelry supplies in our store including chain, wire, glass beads, findings, watches, tools, etc.
