Crazy Beader says:Like the rosaline seed beads better than the Czech cherry blossom beads – - but it’s awfully hard to say without seeing them together in “real” light ! Lots of nice components here, Jolene – - am glad you have posted photos of some of your designs and am looking forward to seeing what you create out of this collection !

Crazy Chick Frida says:Depending on how you put them together I don’t think the cherry blossom flower are to pink. Moreover I agree with Crazy Beader it’s hard when not seeing them in real life. I just got half a strand of the hessonite and I’m waiting for the rosy topaz
Great pick!!

Julie Shane says:I agree. However, I think perhaps they may be to “shiny” compared to the muted and matte textures of the hessonite and seed beads. Love the copper pieces.

Julie Shane says:Oh. Maybe I’m thinking to “glassy”…

Blooming Ideas says:Experimenting is great! And makes for a terrific pick! To a answer your question …here is my 2 cents…the milky white part of the Cherry blossoms doesn’t seem to mesh with the rest of the items…unless you wanted to add the whitish element of the cherry blossoms? After all you have the final say.

OK Jacki says:Beautiful. I fall on the side of – leave off the cherry blossoms – the rest stands on its own…and it is a beauty. Nice. pick.
