[Nfb-krafters-korner] Crimping_Laurie

[River Woman]

Sahar, the Platinum Princess of Beading,
Yes, I used to use the crimper tool so I know how it works. But, this took 
makes it look so nice. It is flattened, yet rounded at the edges, so it 
looks very very polished. I don't know what else to call it. Not flat like 
other tools I tried years ago, before I had learned about the criimper tool. 
And, this tool makes a crimp that is so smooth and the silver looks so nice. 
I am hooked. Laurie told me about doing it this way. It really IS nice.
