I just started playing with beads last year, making necklaces and earrings, and I already have a lot of beads that I'm not sure I'll ever use. Are there any sites for trading these beads, maybe something grab-bag style? It seems like it would be a good idea. I belong to a paperback book swap and I've saved a ton of money doing that, maybe swapping beads would be good too. Any suggestions?

Click on Groups, in your Yahoo Home Page. Type in Beading. If it's anything like Artist Trading Cards, you'll have about a gazillion groups to choose from. You can look at their splash pages without joining, (and joining is free anyway), and pick out groups that look like doing the things you like. I've found Groups to be a pretty good resource for trading.
