"When the deep purple falls, over sleepy garden walls, and the stars begin to twinkle in the sky" I couldn't get this old Hoagy Carmichael chestnut out of my head as I put this great mix of deep, dreamy, moody purple together. It's a mix of dark maroon, berry, deepest amethyst and the 'twinking stars' are the generous amount of tanzanite AB stones I put into the mix. Vintage acrylic plastic of very high quality. There are small bicones to faceted rounds, some translucent and some opaque, as well as big, chunky beads with great texture. The great big bead you see in the middle of the photo is approx 50x28mm, it's a statement bead. There is at LEAST one of those in every bag. This is a nice even mix of beads, so you could make a finished project/projects from the mix. If you are making earrings or bib necklaces, you can really go to town with this gorgeous mix. Well over 4 ounces, a quarter pound! These are NOT crafts store quality, these are the things that you would find in better designer jewelry. Some of the styles are still made but these things are 80's-90's vintage.
