Rose Montees - in 4 mm and 6 mm - These are crystals in silver plated settings with "sew-on" channels built into the the setting. Available in packs of 12 and 24 pieces, and several colors. There are some free patterns on the web using these, and I will have links for you when we re-open.
15/0 Delicas - Yup, already tubed and on display. Available in affordable 3.5 gram quantities.
Thanks for hanging in with us!
Peace and Beads, y'all.
