Starman Color Trends
Large beads have always been a sophisticated way to make a bold fashion
statement. They can be strung quickly to whip up accent jewelry for any
occasion. Used sparingly, they make great focal points or pendants.
They can even be paired with delicate seed bead work. Use Starman Color
Trends to space out beaded beads or add colorful texture and shimmery facets
between segments of beaded ropes or spirals. The Starman Color Trends
collection includes 3 perfect large shapes: the 14mm Melon, the 11/15 Wonky Oval, and the 9/14mm Large Hole Rondelle. Each shape is available
in 16 fashion coordinated pearl and opalescent colors.

Take the Takumi LH Challenge
What is a Takumi LH? If you haven’t heard, Toho launched a new seed bead this summer. Takumi LH beads are the size and shape of a size 11/o seed bead except that the hole diameter is over 15% larger. How much more thread can pass through? Take the challenge and see for yourself. Our record is 16 thread passes! Imagine the design possibilities this spacious, barrier breaking bead can create.Monday, September 2, 2013
Dark Bronze
This season, dare to pair any colored metallic with dark bronze (color number 14415). A color palette staple, bronze is and always will be a timeless shade of shimmer. Trends have continued to evolve into an elegantly liberated hodge-podge of mixed media and unconventional color pairings. Check out this essential color in our expanding shape selection including its transparent alternative, Bronze Illusion (04415).

New Takumi LH 11/0 Seed Bead
Toho has revolutionized the 11/0 seed bead! The Takumi LH is an 11/0 seed bead with a larger hole and it can be used in place of all regular 11/0 beads in patterning. This gives more flexibility to your beading by allowing for more thread to pass through the bead.
Also, larger hole size means more beads per gram!
110 pieces/gram of Round 11/o vs. 124 pieces/gram of Takumi LH 11/o
