A lot of it.  When I started weaving I slowed down and eventually stopped making jewelry.  I still have quite a bit of finished pieces to sell, which I do only very locally and at a bargain.  More than that, I have many, many, MANY beads.  You don&#8217;t want to know how many beads, or their value.  <\/p>\n<p>So I&#8217;ve started selling off my raw materials.  Back in June I packaged some up and sold them to a local woman.  Then I got too busy to do more of that.  Finally last week I took the hours needed to gather up many of my full strings of beads, grouped them by stone and\/or color, located them on my inventory sheet, identifying the size and cost of each group.  I made 12 bags\/groups of beads and asked the woman who&#8217;d purchased the prior beads if she wanted these, too.  She&#8217;s gonna come and look at them and buy some, but not all.  I&#8217;ll post the remaining beads on CraigsList and\/or Etsy.  CraigsList is free, so I&#8217;ll probably start there.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a sample of two of my groups.  <\/p>\n<p>First is mookite &#038; red jasper.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/secondwindjewelry.com\/jewelry-weaving-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/G7-mookite-red-jasper.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/secondwindjewelry.com\/jewelry-weaving-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/G7-mookite-red-jasper.jpg\" alt=\"mookite &amp; red jasper beads\" title=\"mookite-red-jasper-beads\" width=\"450\" height=\"388\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4286\" srcset=\"https:\/\/secondwindjewelry.com\/jewelry-weaving-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/G7-mookite-red-jasper.jpg 450w, https:\/\/secondwindjewelry.com\/jewelry-weaving-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/G7-mookite-red-jasper-300x258.jpg 300w, https:\/\/secondwindjewelry.com\/jewelry-weaving-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/G7-mookite-red-jasper-150x129.jpg 150w, https:\/\/secondwindjewelry.com\/jewelry-weaving-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/G7-mookite-red-jasper-400x344.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Next is aventurine &#038; labradorite.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/secondwindjewelry.com\/jewelry-weaving-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/G12-greens.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/secondwindjewelry.com\/jewelry-weaving-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/G12-greens.jpg\" alt=\"aventurine &amp; labradorite beads\" title=\"aventurine-labradorite-beads\" width=\"450\" height=\"436\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4287\" srcset=\"https:\/\/secondwindjewelry.com\/jewelry-weaving-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/G12-greens.jpg 450w, https:\/\/secondwindjewelry.com\/jewelry-weaving-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/G12-greens-300x290.jpg 300w, https:\/\/secondwindjewelry.com\/jewelry-weaving-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/G12-greens-150x145.jpg 150w, https:\/\/secondwindjewelry.com\/jewelry-weaving-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/G12-greens-400x387.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll probably have to take new\/better photos for online posting.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve been trying to get this post up for 3 days.
