Title: Which colour for electric blue?
Post by: Mand on December 10, 2010, 02:22:39 PM
Hi all,

I wondered if anyone could please advise me on which colour to use?  A lady I've just made a red and black necklace for had now asked for an electric blue, black and silver one as well.  Whic 104 coe electric blue glass woud you recommend for a vibrant colour? (I'm on a minor).  Thanks.  ;)

CIM pulsar is a lovely transparent electric blue?  Or you could try encasing a white core with trans cobalt?

I find pulsar the same as eff dk turquoise trans. some days the effetre seems to pit less than the pulsar. some days it does not!

CIM electric avenue I like lots.

Hmm, I think I may have some dark aqua already .... although I could get me some electric avenue and/ or pulsar.  Oh I'm torn, what to do? (Well it's daft asking you lot  - you will all just say BUY BOTH!) :D ;D

Well there is a hooge sale on at the moment and it is nearly Christmas and I suspect you could do with a little treat and the sale is so big the money you are saving means you are spending nothing at all really so you could buy more glass and spend even less than nothing......okay? :D

CIM electric avenue or ming.
This blue is the perfect transparent electric blue. Martin used to sell it by the rod but I can't see it now.
