Ha ha ...Perhaps you might see some beads to change your mind and inspire you ....

Krysia@No98 · March 13, 2013, 09:18:28 PM

ha ha ha, I would love to take full responsibility for this one, but alas...

On the plus side Sean has plenty of this in stock.

I see a lot of beads with accent colours this month!

I LOVE acid yellow, hmmm wonder if it will go with Slytherin, not used that one yet. Foul combination? I'll let you know!

Hmm, wonder if I have a rod of that in the starter kit? Did make a bright yellow bead the other day decorated with some twisty frit, will have to check if it's the right shade...

I'll kick off with this focal - acid yellow with silvered ivory and blue chalcedony frit .. etched for a softer look!

Trudi · March 15, 2013, 07:34:32 AM

Yes it's surprising the difference it makes!

I think I have a couple of rods of this. Might take them to flame off just so I can enter a monthly challenge. Hmm what colour will go with this?

Keeping it simple and just complementing it with some other colours.

Still working on persuading other newbies to show their work. Sometimes simple works.

P.s. besides I've got April to produce something more complicated.

They are really pretty Mark - what are you going to turn them into?
