[Nfb-krafters-korner] beading question

[Blindhands at aol.com]

This is a great place for questions like this and please do keep in mind we 
 all don't have the answers.  I do know of folks that seem to have
 the same trouble that Mom and daughter or sister and sister have  
sensitivities to  certain metals in earrings.  You may just have to  test them out 
and keep notes on what work and what doesn't.  Lots of the  earrings you can 
easily change just the posts, loops, etc, so it is not a total  loss if you 
make the earring and need to try a different post, loop or  backing.
