I am delighted that I can finally get these wonderful findings locally! The good folks at Elusis Beadsin Okotoks now stock them and I have to say, they make finishing a piece with a professional look that much easier. With these and some wire guardians, you'll get a great result. I have never found them anywhere in the Calgary area bead stores, and now I don't have to wait weeks while my order clears customs - I can get them right on my doorstep. Plus their website should be up and running for online sales in a few more weeks.
While I was at Elusis Beads, I spotted some gorgeous amber nuggets - just had to have them. Teamed them up with a mix of 4mm and 6mm Swarovski Crystal Copper bicones, and was very happy with the result. So I made a 3 strand bracelet to match.
This color combo really jazzes up a black pants suit and white blouse - try it, you'll get nothing but compliments...
Bead on,
Therese
Gorgeous rich mellow colour! A lovely set...well done
