Bead Project Tutorial
Dripping with Glamour
 
Whether vintage or new, 12mm crystals
demand attention. Their many facets shimmer
and shine and often come in finishes, such as
Aurora Borealis (AB), that reflect even more
light. Though you may not find an exact
contemporary match for vintage crystals,
select your cubes and bicones to closely
coordinate with the main crystal color for a
monochromatic masterpiece.
We are in desperate need of more tutorial
writers.
Any one interested please don't hesitate to contact
us. For more information
see last
September's
article.

Fashion Forecast
Fall 2007
 Update your
wardrobe with a
few fantastic pieces - a swingy
jacket with three-quarter-length
sleeves, a bold geometric-print
dress, a rich sweater vest or
sweater dress, or menswear inspired
shirts or wide-leg
trousers. Gray is a prominent
color this fall; try it in metallic
heather or charcoal. And plaids
are everywhere - coats, tights,
dresses, shoes, handbags, and
caps. In footwear, the menswear
influence is prominent: oxfords
and spectator pumps are key
shoe and boot options. Finally,
the biker look is huge. If you're
not into leather skirts and
jackets, try an accessory like a
studded bag or cuff.
