Just a quickie... ;D
Are the CZ's for glass work different to "normal" CZ's? I've just been given a nice big bag of little ones by a friend - she thought I'd be able to use them for uni, but I don't tend to do much set work... My first thought was glass, but I wanted to check they were all the same thing! You'd think someone studying jewellery would know, but... ::)

Not as far as I am aware I am pretty sure they are the same thing.
Have a word with Beadysam cos she sells them and would know for definate!
They are the same thing. Use the little ones only (maybe under 3 mm) so your beads stay uncracked!
You have to check that they are able to withstand heat - you can find that out from the manufacturer - if you don't know, just test a couple in some tester beads and see how you get on. Definately don't use more than 3mm though, as Maikki said.
cool, thanks everyone! :)
