Hi everyone,
I want to tell you that The Torch, www.Frantznewsletter.com (http://frantznewsletter.com/welcome.html), just got updated.
The First update is Voting is open!!! (http://frantznewsletter.com/bead%20contest/Page%201.htm)
First off I just want to inform you that Voting for the bead contest started May 1st and will go till May 10th. And as the last few trickle in I'll be posting them as soon as I can. Make sure you check out the bead entries and place your votes. There have already been a few beads neck and neck on bead votes so far. If you sent a bead in and you haven’t seen it up yet, I'm working on it as fast as I can.
Secondly we have 3 new colors from CIM.
Messy Hades
An intense black that stays opaque even when pulled into stringers
Hades is stiff – it will not bleed or crawl on other glass - perfect for making details
Sold in quarter pound increments
Messy Glacier
An icy blue similar to frosty blue
Sold in quarter pound increments
Messy Blush
Same tonality as Rose Quartz but has a tendency to stay transparent or translucent
The degree of transparency / translucency depends on bead size and working time
Previously known as Rose Quartz Unique but is now a regular production color
Sold in quarter pound increments
