This is a bit divergent from the topic, except as it relates to keishi and stringing them.

Per Caitlin,

The only problem I ever have with wire is that the beads/pearls settle on them over time.
Yes, they are so frustrating! Those belly-drilled keishi especially. This probably should go on another thread. They have to be seated very carefully, checking for spaces between. I am working on 2 strands now, not expensive and very pretty, but sooooo time consuming. I will take some photos and start a thread under "Lowly Beaders" just about working with keishi.
