Title: Double Helix Frits
Post by: kaatje on July 27, 2007, 01:34:49 PM
I intend to order some glass with Q (so that I can take it with me next week after the meeting) and would like to order some frits too. Just don't know which type/colour I should order.
Has anyone over here made some beads with these frits already and if so, which type of frit would you suggest?  (Maybe you have a pic to show me? That would be just wonderful! )

Those are just superb.  May I ask where you get the lovely headpins from?

Thanks guys.

Shelley - I use www.thesilvercorporation.co.uk

Its a standard bobble end pin with a disc spacer. I use that combination a lot.
