Does anyone know of reputable suppliers/manufacturers that I can get
sterling silver beads, supplies, etc. from? I have started a small business
of making necklaces and bracelets, and need to find a couple of suppliers
that I can get wholesale pricing for the beads and supplies.

Any contacts would be greatly appreciated.

I buy a lot of my S.S. findings from:

You and Me, Inc.
4544 University Way NE.
Seattle WA
98105

www.youandme-silver.com

E-mail sa...@youandme-silver.com

Contact Marge Kong

Then again there is www.riogrande.com for most anything you can think of in
the way of findings, calibrated stones, tools, raw materials, etc.

Wendy,

Try Rio Grande at www.riogrande.com for silver, findings, and stringing
supplies. There are a lot of others out there like Indian Jewelry Supply,
which specialize in beading, as well.

Check out fire mountain gems...they have a web site and you should be able to
find via google. Also Swest in Dallas is a good source for jewelry craftsmen.
Again Google should be able to get an 800 number if no luck email me. Ray

You may also want to try www.timewellcorp.com. They only sell
wholesale. So if you have a resale certificate, you can open an
account with them. The initial sign up process is a bit tedious. But
their prices and quality are definitely worth the effort. For
example, their 5.5mm sterling silver letter bead is just $0.59 each.
That is about the lowest price I can find on the internet…

Good luck with your new business.
