Wow, love these beads!! DM is not a colour I use much but I'm getting some lovely inspiration here!

Now that I know posting photos is easy here is mine

DM with Lapis.  My first Lush style bead, bit wonky and the cutting was a bit tender but I played with DM none the less

It's a really pretty combination, I've never thought of putting it with lapis - but they like each other a lot!

Helen, I'm in total awe of the perfection of your buttons!

[Hotglass28]

I like the colours together too. Lapis seems to reduce a liitle but not mess up the DM. Nice crisp lines    Loving everyones work btw

Here is my Dirty Martini

[MadelineBunyan]

firstly I'll say that this is soooo not my colour!

its kinda a non colour for me, therefore it lives in my 'neutral' section of used rods.

oh well...gotta play the game


dirty martini base, dichroic, dirty martini and clear twisty, encased in clear, dirty martini flowers with cz centres, and some baby flowers in dirty martini...

and a fiend to photograph!

Dirty Martini and Eff Violet and a pathetic tree....

[lyzzydee]

So looking at all these beads, all such different colours, what could is dirty martini???

[Magpie]

DM is the pale greenish creamy colour.

Here is my offering - Dirty Martini + Val Cox Purple Rose frit, made with one of Bev's Graphite Bead Rollers. I like the way these have devitrified - they almost feel like they have been etched.
