My order of glass Czech vintage/antique beads
arrived today…from the Czech Republic!
They are so beautiful. Each bead sparkles and
shines as it catches even a hint of light. My mind is already spinning as I think
of new necklaces that I wish to design.
Until now, I thought I was only going to use
natural gemstone beads in my handcrafted necklaces. I wanted to use materials
that were earthy and genuine. But, these
beads are so fabulous; I am rethinking the benefit of other materials,
especially these glass beads. I can appreciate many wonderful combinations of
natural stone beads linked with a sprinkling of these glittering pieces of
glass; not to go unmentioned, the fact that my Czech heritage is bolstered.
Initially, I bought a very limited supply of the
Czech beads because I did not know what to expect…near perfection is a reason
to purchase more; and, I will.
Until then, I have to get over my infatuation
with these magnificent beads so that I can actually utilize them in my conceptions
rather than collect and protect them.
Keep watching…these beads will find a home in
some new necklace creations soon!
