I have recently taken up a unique hobby. That is the creation of beautiful custom clothing made with beautiful hotfix rhinestones. Hotfix rhinestones are artificial gems that have a powerful adhesive coated on the back of each stone. When heated with a special wand, the glue melts momentarily, permanently attaching the rhinestone to a fabric or other surface. I make beautiful custom jeans and jackets for friends and myself. One might think that the supplies to do this are very expensive, especially considering that I use only the highest quality Swarovski hot fix crystals.
But, I have found a place to buy Swarovski rhinestones wholesale. That place is Rhinestone Depot. Through their Internet store at rhinestonedepot.com, I can choose from literally thousands of different sizes and colors of elegant Swarovski crystals. I also purchase flatback Swarovski rhinestones for use in making my unique custom designs of jewelry.
