Ohh I like this colour a lot!!!!
Will have to add this to my list for Sunday.
Jenny
Opps just checked and it does not look like Martin has it in stock : :'(
http://www.tuffnellglass.com/contents/en-uk/d16_02.html#p1532 this one?
got a bit worried then...I'm due to order this week, thought I wasn't going to be able to play!
That's the one - just spelt wrongly!!! :)
Hmm, have to check my sample rods - that might be the first one I haven't had! I've got normal rosato/lavender blue but no idea about the dark.
It's a really lovely pink!
ok I will add to my list of colours to look for on sunday then ;D
Jenny
I don't have this one - and I have banned myself from buying glass this month. :)
Oh i don't think I have this one, Will have to check.
~Lots of light pink but not got this one!
Martin might be busy sending these out . I do not think I have this colour either and I was being so good as well
One from not so long ago ...

They are lovely Trudi.
It is a gorgeous colour.
What colour are the 2 pinky beads? They are gorgeous
My pinks are not labelled, bugger! Just had to place an order! I won't tell if you don't :-X ;D
Yeah, I have dark lavender and sample rods of normal rosato, and lots of shades of amethyst and purple but not this!
Trudi, those are mouth-watering ;D

Wow, what a fab colour. Think I'm gonna get me some of that x
I have just bought the lighter one 082 last week when I went to Tuffnell's didn't see this one, but it is very pretty. Have made a dotty one for the other challenge in the lighter shade, hope it comes out of the kiln ok. Those are lovely ribbed beads Trudi. :)
Yay - I got this colour!!!!!!!!!!!! Just the one rod ;D

Sorry about the poor quality photo - it's really dark and dismal here today and I don't have time to set up lights etc as I am getting ready to go away at short notice - but I was so excited that I could post in the colour of the month for the first time ;D ;D ;D
Lovely heart Terri - that colour is perfect for it!!
Can you tell I like this colour

I love the mixture of the etched and shiny!
I like to see the contrast in the same glass!!
That colour is beautiful - think I'll have to get some :)
Well, this is the first time I've ever managed to make some beads that fit the monthly theme and that I'm not too embarrassed to share with the rest of the world!
They're nothing that interesting, but I like them.

Hiya
k00m, those are great - well done for sharing!
My Dark Rosata has arrived, so I've had a play. These beads are weeny - made with my new bantam bead roller, but I think they are quite cute. There is some white & opal raspberry here too, and I've etched some of the Rosata and left some shiny. Don't know if it was just me, but my Rosata kept wanting to go go very bubbly. You can see that even on some of the etched ones:

Whenever I have used Dark Rossato - it looks a lovely colour before annealing - but after annealing it goes sort of brownish (my Pink Champagne does the same).
Any ideas anyone please?
I would love to get colours like some of these fab beads on this thread.
Thanks, Helen
Gorgeous beads everyone. :)
The darker beads in this set are ornage encased with rosatto, etched. They are a dark coral IRL. soory if you have already seen them in the gallery ;D
