Hilary asked: I don’t really have a business but I make chainmaille jewelry and sell it online and at craft fairs. What should I name it? I would like it to have to do with the fact that the jewelry is unique or have a medieval or fantasy name. Any suggestions?

ForsakenRose88 asked: I would like to know what metals are best to use for jewelry making in terms of lifespan, safety, and not discolouring etc. Many thanks!
I know to avoid lead, nickel and tibetan silver. Are there any other similar metals to avoid?

Magdalene asked: It is just straight on the other end. You would put your bead (or beads) on it and form a loop on the other end so that it can dangle.
It looks pretty much like a straight pin without the point.
Worst come to worst I will use straight pins but they are harder to bend to form a loop.
Thanks so Much, Susan L. That is exactly what I was looking for. Will give you 10 points as soon as the time has passed so I can do it.
