Go beyond your typical seed beads and incorporate CzechMates Two-Hole Crescent Beads into your next project. These stunning curved beads from Starman Inc add asymmetrical interest to your beading projects.
CzechMates Two-Hole Crescent Beads are made of Czech pressed glass. To make pressed glass beads, artisans press a heated glass rod into a mold, allowing for an intense variety as well as easy, large-scale production of glass beads. These beads are 10mm x 3mm in size and come in over 160 color/texture combinations! Pictured in this review are the Saturated Metallic Blue Crescent Beads, which give off a truly beautiful shine! Most bead colors come in opaque and shiny finishes. They are sold in 10-gram tubes that contain 85-95 beads (depending on the finish of the bead).
Patterns made with these beads look incredible. Because of the 3mm spacing between holes, these beads work well for embroidery and weaving, as well as general stringing projects. The large hole-to-bead ratio allows enough space for multiple passes of thread. Joined with beads of more standard shapes and sizes, the CzechMates Two-Hole Crescent Beads stand out in your projects. The contrast between the long, curved shape of these beads and a standard seed bead really allows for captivating jewelry creations.
To me, the curved shape reminds me of ocean waves or even fish scales. Combine sandy colored beads with Limpet Shell and Aquamarine to take a bit of the beach with you wherever you go. The shape and colors would be so reminiscent of summer! Use your imagination. You have so many colors and textures to choose from when selecting the Two-Hole Crescent Beads for your next project.
Work unique new beads into your next jewelry design! The CzechMates Two-Hole Crescent Beads will be the touch that makes your next project completely lovely.

If you want to try these in a very easy project try Jolie beaded earring pattern right here on all free jewelry making. It's a gorgeous design and even better it's for beginners. I love those kinds of projects. They don't take many beads, work up quickly and are very pretty.

I have not used or seen these two hole crescent beads before but now that I have I have got to find a bracelet or necklace tutorial so I can see how to use them and what I can make out of them. I am so looking forward to using these beads. I will go to the site and do some research. Anyone order from here? Thanks for the review.
