About this design:
I've been searching for the perfect beads to go with some metallic green leather cord I had. My local bead shop got in a huge new selection of tila beads and I found these beauties. I added the metallic Toho beads add an extra zip and splash of color.
Components:
2 hole tila beads, Toho seed beads, 1.5 mm metallic leather cord K.O. thread antiqued brass button.Read the comments (or add your own)
