Beadin Path Design Partner - What a haul!!!

What a thrill I had yesterday when I got home from work and found a package in my mail box from Beadin Path! Heather at Beadin Path had given me a heads up there was a package in the mail, but I did not expect this! Imagine my surprise to find so much stuffed into that padded envelope. A squeal escaped me as I dumped them onto the table, and I will admit, I slobbered a little in my glee.


Beadin Path is so generous to their Design Partners and for that I am forever grateful. The vintage lucite beads are too much fun. You can go crazy with big bulky designs and not have to worry about the weight. The textures, colors and patterns of the beads are so much fun to combine in a piece, it allows you to work outside your creative comfort zone and find new ways to express yourself.

There were no inventory tags on these strands and I had to go to the site to poke around (hurt my feelings!) and find out what each one was.

Vintage Lucite beads - going from left to right:
LUC4274BR Matte Dark Bark Tube beads, 6 x 26 mm
LUC2185BR Cube Beads 10mm Smoky Quartz
LUC2485OR Dark Rust Moonglow Heishi Rondells 4 x 8mm
