You are in Pincourt?? I will send you a message directly...Cool! :) Your work is STUNNING! I love the colors you choose and how they work so harmoniously together...and yes definitely not "strung" - I find from experience if you use any form of bead unless it has been hammered and soldered etc. it gets lumped in the category of "strung". Then there are those who feel what we do is not "art" at all...which is too bad. Anything that is created with a purposeful heart for expression is art as far as I'm concerned. ;) I'll email you soon... Leilani :) What??? You are in Pincourt??

Just hammer/play around sometimes. :) Try You Tube for how-to videos. Keep in touch - I'd love to see your work now/what you come up with - do you have a blog or photo site?

No luck on copper but I buy my engraving brass from <a href="http://www.engraversexpress.com/montreal.htm" target= "_blank" rel="nofollow">Engraver's Express</a> in VSL - and in the past have bought SS from <a href="http://www.imperialproducts.com/" target= "_blank" rel="nofollow">Imperial Smelting</a> in Toronto...never bought sheet from them just ss wire but I am sure they have sheet as well. Otherwise, from my experience you are correct, the US is the only place to buy it. If you find of anywhere in Canada I'd love to know! What are you making? Do share! :) Best, Leilani :) Hi Elaine,

I usually don't take custom requests for bookmarks they are just a left over material project, but would entertain requests if large enough/interesting enough. :) Thanks for your interest, Leilani :) Hi Candace,

I just got the Lee Valley catalogue the other day and while browsing through it, saw the stick weaving kit. Decided to look online to get more info on it and came across your site. I don't knit but I crochet a lot and this looks like it would make a nice change. My eleven year old granddaughter is learning to crochet and I think she'd really like this too. Thanks for posting this. Hi. I just got the Lee Valley catalogue the other day and while browsing through it, saw the stick weaving kit.

I would suggest doing a search on a site like etsy.com to see if you can buy a how-to tutorial on how to do it. Good luck!
