Dear beadFX
I just started making jewellery, and I sold a necklace to someone in the U.S. I had to fill out a customs form when I mailed the package - and it asked me for the country of origin of the item I was shipping.
I know that some of the beads were made in the Czech Republic, and some were made in Japan, and there was a handmade bead that was made with Italian glass.
I just put that the necklace was made in Canada - but is that right? Do I have to list all the other countries too? I mean, it was just a simple strung necklace - nothing fancy.
Did I do right?

Dear Confused
You did fine - by stringing all those components into a necklace - even a simple one - you have changed them sufficiently that the whole necklace is now "Made in Canada."
And congratulations on your sale!
beadily yours
