I got bargains!!! Lee Valley had some things that I think will make wonderful mandrels for only 20 cents each - yes - even the big one! I can't wait to try them out!

I also found some reaaaallly cheap mandrel holders - great for my 3/32 mandrels, it even says 3/32 right on them.

Nicer still they slot together!

Along with these I found some tiny brushes, that I think will be great for scrubbing the last of the bead release away. ...note the 'Epilady' logo on the handle!!

Now, they were a little more expensive at 70 cents/10 -- I had to consider that purchase carefully ;o)
Ikea -- I could have spent a fortune, but seeing as Jane managed to do that I thought I should be frugal. I did find some side plates that we really needed and got six of them. They are very artsy and cool! LOOK!

And they look even better with food on them! ;o)

I know where my next stop will be when I go to IKEA ;-)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE TOOL STORES !!!!
The mandrels do look good, the holders as well. Won´t tell you what I am using as the holders.
What do you mean...."I spent a lot" ?!!
