Oh, wow - I haven't seen these before, but they look wonderful! I love the red ones - they look like they are on fire!

OMG. I do NOT do seed beads. I do NOT do seed beads. I do NOT do seed beads.

But damn they'd look sexy as hell with some of my dichro flutters.

I do seed beads :D and those look amazing!

I don't much care for AB. Makes the beads look oily or something. But these are gorgeous. I'd love to see some up close and personal.

You know, Cindy, I'm not fond of AB either. Especially in seed beads. Maybe I'm a snob and think I can do color shifting and blending better on my own. Often I don't care for it because everything seems to shift to purple/magenta. Though I do have a couple things where it works wonderfully. Both use a single color that transitions.

I use Swarovskis with your flutters, but I'd love to make a peyote cone "bead cap" with one, and dichro or AB would be great for that.
