Melody F says:If you are making the bracelets for kids or teens they seem to like really bright and this Toho bead is bright. Your pick is pretty, and I love the Gold Lustered Transparent Pink! Nice layout too.

Maggies Mom says:Cute pick. I love orange also. Such a happy color!

dolllady aka Pam says:I never thought about it until after I read your comment, MM. It is hard to find a true orange except in some off brand that is usually irregular beads. I like your pick, even if it isn’t a true orange.

Medieval Momma says:I do have some of the neon orange and I love it. The problem with the neon is then I’d have to find all the other colors of the rainbow in neon to look right. And they all have to be the same size. Pam is right to find the true orange you have to find them in an off brand and they are wonky and irregular in size.

Granny Nancy says:PS: I’ve saved this to my faves as I want to make a piece with carnelian and copper. I think I have enough carnelian left.
