I am making beaded fringe and want to use black, however, Im looking for a sparjly or shiny (hard to describe) that reflects the light. I order from Shipwreck, does anyone know what number black to use, I ordered one that was just a plain matte black...OR?? is there another color black looking that would do the same thing?
Thanks
Pam

Sun, July 8, 2007 - 3:20 PMHi Pam....I've had good luck with seedbeadheaven.com. Their size 15 hex cut black (item 29591A) reflects light beautifully. I've used it in fringe many times and love the results. -

I took your recommendation and ordered the Hex from Seed Bead Heaven. Came in today and they are awesome. They were a little smaller than I expected but I have big plans for them. Thanks again enlightening me on another vendor

Wed, July 18, 2007 - 6:46 AMShipwreck was recommended to me and I found their prices very good, and they will reduce the shipping if you order enough.
On another note, I am planning to use the 15/0 to make a beaded tasselm however I have to clue where to start. Any ideas. I want one about 6" or so long and i cant find anything on the internet to help.
