I love beaded beads. My favorite were netted silver-lined matte olive seeds over semi-transparent golden resin round beads. I strung them together with fancy citrine-colored fancy glass and gold rounds.

I also like to do beaded beads that are standalone groups of beads with no real center bead. I did one set, each with 4 white 6mm glass rounds in a row, connected & surrounded with sky blue seeds, and topped with little peach coin pearls. I strung them together with some cool sky blue lampwork beads fretted with white glass, with more peach pearls as separators.

Jennifer,

That was a very good idea for the spools, I have bags of these I purchased from another crafter over 14yrs ago and only pull them out when the kids come over so they have something to do. Thanks for the tip, I will try this next time they want something to do. Have a wonderful weekend!
