Every time I buy anything from him it's always beautiful. Received my batch of 10 bags of seed beads, never gave him any idea what colors, and he really nailed it. Got some gorgeous red/white/blue that are going to be used for sure, and some lovely colors of blue and green, some bright yellow and nice almost skin tone tan. Best of all he got my favorite color in there, purple! Way to go Christopher! Add to it, the two freebies he threw in are bodacious! Love the green leaves, those I already have a plan for making Xmas earrings! Those are great! The other, I'm not sure what it's strung on but if it's on Silk, then I'm just adding clasps and making a necklace for my daughter. It's wicked!! Not sure what kind of beads those are but they are real beauties. Pics below:

Thanks for the compliments Robin, I really appreciate it. I am pretty sure the strung beads are shell.

I'm showing my age here, but those strung beads are Pooka (puka?) shells. Very popular in the 70's. if you didn't have a pooka shell necklace, you just weren't cool.
So, I guess you are cool now, Robin.
