I think this is dark matter (am I right in thinking dark matter and multicolour dark are the same just named differently between Tuffers and Off Mandrel?)

It really likes presses and getting very cold before being wafted back in the heat.  It makes lovely ring topper flowers too, I'm wearing one now!

Excuse the dust they've been on the window ledge for a week or two waiting to be etched - then a nice bracelet me thinks!

Thy're yummy :) But no, Dark Matter is an Effetre colour, and Multi Dark is Reichenbach - my guess is that those are Multi Dark? :)

I really must learn to label  ::)  Still it adds to life's little adventures - my glass is like a box of chocolate - you never know what you're gonna get!  ;D

I'd agree, definitely multi dark, and definitely gorgeous!

I got a nice subtle reaction with ivory:



Dots and swirls are all dark matter, with SIS bands around the centre bead

Why on earth did I not think of using Dark Matter as decoration?  I always use it as a base.  Those are lovely beads.  :)
