Hero of the Week

As promised, our bead heroes have returned and this week we are featuring one unforgettable hero. A small but bold and striking bead that doesn't need to be large to grab your attention.

When our daughter was about eight years old we let her pick out the colors she wanted us to paint her bedroom. She likes bold colors just as we do. She picked green and blue for the walls and for the trim she picked a color called Laser Beam Yellow. That name very much suits these beads even more so than the Transparent Frosted Lemon Yellow name they came with. They are transparent though so you know what that means, color play with thread! This Friday I will share  with you a super simple necklace that will look great with your summer beach wear and a pendant that uses a different thread color to change the look a bit - but certainly not the boldness.

Until then, let us know what you think of this week's hero in the comments below. Does the intense color frighten you or do you embrace amazingly bright colors in your beadwork?
