Default Beadable Magnifying Pendant

Does anyone know where I can find the beadable magnifying pendant? If I uploaded the image correctly, this is a photo of a bead/pendant made by Mitra Totten from page 13 of Beads of Glass. My search on the internet gave me her web site (

) but the site only shows a logo.

Any help would be appreciated!

Oh I like that, it's small. I hope you find a source I think I would like to get one too.

Oh, I'd love to find this too!!! I checked the the link to Karen Thomas' page, and she does have wonderful things, but her mag glasses are the hand-held type (unless I missed something!) and this pendant one is so darn cute!!!

I contacted Karen Thomas a while back and she had no idea where to get them. I also contacted Cindy Jenkins to see if she knew how to contact Mitra Totten, but she lost touch with her after her bead pendant was in the book. She thought that it might be some European item that isn't available here. Any one across the pond have an idea...

How about this one at Rings & Things?
Approx. 5 1/2" total length and the beadable part is only 2.4".

I too have been looking for something like this. Ladies would love to carry these in their purses for phone books or menus.
Please Please someone find these.

Thanks to C-Ann and Reenie, but I'm really looking for something that you can wear as a necklace/pendant rather than the hand held ones. I'll drop a note to the address above and see if I get a response. Thanks, Simbasmom!

I'll be sure and post to this thread if I hear anything. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one interested. I sent an email to McDuck in case she wants to work on it. I'm hopeful we'll come up with something.

These are the closest I could find... they look like they might be able to unscrew and accept a bead, but who knows...

Oh, I didn't think about that. Guess I better order some mandrels. Based on my calculations, 1/4 inch should do the trick.

Wouldn't it be cool to figure out how to use the egg rings? Perfect little Easter gift boxes!
