i was enticed by the necklaces that are being made by a famous TV personality. when i inquired how much these necklaces were, the lowest price was 18k! ngek..all for some beads and charms. and since i was doing nothing lately, i decided to try making my own accessories.  i found these materials online since i didnt have the time to go to quiapo:

i would have wanted more gemstones but id like to see the quality of the ones i ordered up close. i was also reading the thread, and based from your posts sisses, di pala maganda quality ng plating ng most stuff being sold in quiapo?

im planning to go there pa naman later.

sisses, san po makakabili ng glue/adhesive for beads?  may project kasi ako, instead na itahi ang beads, ididikit nalang.  my plan is to attach it to leather, denim and satin materials.  pwede kaya yun?  and if ever pwede, please suggest a very good brand.  yung hindi matatanggal kahit mabasa or i-laundry.  or kahit hilahin, hindi matatanggal.  TIA!

^im also in search of the best bead adhesive... the usual recommendation would be Bostik, but it doesnt work!... mahal pa...

hello mga sis,

San kaya makakabili sa Quiapo ng metal ball chain  na iba't ibang colors?

Thanks!

[trinity94]

^do you mean the ones you use for IDs and keychains?... meron sa butingting, with different colors also...

^^last time i bought those watch faces was in April 2010... the prices then were around P40-75 depending on the sizes... meron din sa Sophie's, but they have the ones with stones or jade.... i just remembered i also saw some at Wellmanson's, pero mahal sya, arnd 100-200 kasi swarovski daw yun...

[andee_gurl]

^Thanks sis. Yung butingting ba same street lang ng wellmanson?

[trinity94]

^yup... coming from the church, it's at the left side of villalobos..

[andee_gurl]

mga sis does anyone know what time nagbubukas yung butingting at wellmanson sa quiapo? tia!

[bigdadis_girl]

^i'm not really sure sis, kasi nung napa aga ako ng masyado ng out sa office diretso agad ako dun as early as 830am open na butingting at mga katabing stores at marami ng namimili so I wonder siguro maaga sila open...  next time mas aagahan ko pa, sana pala tinanong ko na nung nagpunta me dun..
