Sorry about that, I keep forgetting this is a World wide family. I’m glad you pointed that out for me Cindy If I had a safe way to send you some turkey I sure would.

I just wanted to let Sue know I now have 2 cheat sheets from her site she gave us on all the different gauges of wire use. One by my computer and one for my craft room by my jewelry table. Thank you again for the information Sue and Cindy.

Yes… To all our American friends… Happy Thanksgiving to you all! I know many of you are getting prepped for the holiday on Thursday and I hope you have a wonderful time with your families. Save a little Turkey for me!

Thank you everyone for you great comments and support! You all make this a fantastic community to share and learn from.

I agree Elizabeth great way to make it easy Thanks so much Cindy. Thank you also Sue I plan to check the site out as soon as I leave this one. I am getting a little more brave with my wire work. I forget who it was back a month or so said something about making there own crimp beads. Now that I have no idea how you would be able to do but it amazes me each and every day what we can learn from Cindy and each other. I say HATS off to all of us.

In case I do not get a chance again I want to wish everyone in my Clay Family a VERY HAPPY AND MOST SAFE THANKSGIVING. GOD BLESS ALL OF US AND YOURS

For those who are interested, there’s an excellent Wire Gauge Guide (“cheat sheet”) by Christine Gierer that complements the information above nicely at the following location:
