There's a very unobvious drop down arrow just above the link, all the sizes should then come up. Took me ages last time to find it.

So there is.  they don't make it obvious!  Thanks for that.

One of them is now a pendant and the prize in PIF180.....

I was quite pleased with them, something a bit different, but having put them on the FB bead selling groups no one seemed to like them, hence 2 making it to pendants.

This is what I ended up making. Playing with a couple of things I haven't done much of before, namely encasing twisties and squishing things into cuboid shape.

Twisting, encasing, squishing - sounds cool and looks great. I like the decoration on the surface of the encasing, giving an added dimension...

Lovely entries already :)

Here's a black and white bead I made the other day. I think I am also going to make a black and white owl especially for this challenge tomorrow too :)

Love that hare Les,my computer  is on its last legs and playing up , it takes an age to upload any photos with flickr  :(
Its such a pain , I have been using my phone camera and  Facebook to sell beads  till I sort it out,
Love all the back and white beads shown, was thinking earlier that I should do a black and white floral set,

Nice work Les - my shaky fingers make that kind of stringer work impossible!

Beautiful beads everyone. I thought I would give it a go so here is my little bead set using Black & White so of course it looks purple :)

Heres my attempt with black and white, it started out as a focal bead but all ran into each other so I pulled it into a focal and dont like it very much. :)
