[Nfb-krafters-korner] Crimping_Laurie

[Sahar Husseini]

I'm glad you found something that works for you, and I'm still absolutely delighted you tackled your bead work again.  I am so glad you don't have to wait for your daughter to come and crimp for you!  

Warm regards,
Sahar Husseini

  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.
