This week I have a fantastic collection of rectangular acrylic beads to give away - the colors are so bright and juicy, perfect for spring and summer designs. Most of these pieces were saved and collected not only for their fun shapes, but for their gemstone hues as well.
My favorites are the chiclets, which I had always hoped to pair up with teal colored cord and pearl knots for a floating necklace. There are also several rectangular tubes in the colors of coral, jade, turquoise, and transparent gray, with a few metallic gold as well. Just for fun, I’ve added some two-hole rectangular sliders and a beautiful acrylic filigree component in jade green.
How to Enter
For a chance to win all of the beads shown, all you have to do is leave a comment on this post, and answer the following question:
What is your favorite color for spring inspired designs?
If you do not have a Blogger profile with email contact enabled, please make sure to include a contact link or email address, so I can get in touch with you if you win! One lucky reader will be drawn at random on Tuesday, April 17th. This giveaway is open to readers from Canada and the US.
Good luck, and happy beading!

Love these beads! Esp the chicklet beads. My favorite color for Spring designs is orange-red coral.
ReplyDeleteI have two favorite colors-
ReplyDeleteShades of green, because where I am (near the Wasatch Mountains) everything slowly turns a beautiful green. You can literally watch the green climb the mountains!
Shades of blue - because my favorite color is blue, and I personally think it goes with any season. And probably because blue is a cool color which is perfect for the coming hot days of Spring/Summer!

my favorite spring color to use is green, it makes me feel like spring has really started when everything around me starts turning green and then blooming
ReplyDeleteThose are luscious. I like the hue of the acrylic beads. Humm...lets see. I am working on a Spring type beaded doll. She is of course different shades of green with fuschia colored sequins to match the phlox rolling down in waves from my flower beds.
ReplyDeleteDaffodil yellow which is one of the first flowers to bloom signaling spring has finally sprung!
ReplyDeletegreen, and that lovely jade colored focal would be so fun to work with!
ReplyDeleteOh my! I have to pick just one color! I have two...green and orange. And these mixed with white!
ReplyDeleteThe chiclets you have chosen are beautiful and because we are still experiencing dreary grey dull weather here in Alta. the lovely bright blue and red really jumped out and spoke to me for their cheerfulness and color.
ReplyDeleteI love bright color beads!!! my favorite color for this spring is purple.
ReplyDeleteWhen I moved to Michigan, what astounded me most about the spring is the violets. The abundance of them, the fact that they just grow WILD in everyone's yards, on roadsides, in pastures... And that they weren't all violet. Purples, whites and yellows abounded at our old house. Now that we've moved we have a patch of fantastic mauve in our front yard, and in our neighborhood there are lovely white violets with delicate purple stripes. They make a lovely spring palette all put together!
ReplyDeleteMy fav is a sky blue. Blues are my favorite and sky blue can be paired with several other colors for spring~ This is a wonderful giveaway! Thank you for offering it!
ReplyDeleteI think green would have to be my favorite color of spring......I always look forward to the trees budding out and going from bare twigs to lush green

"And what is a weed? A plant whose virtues have not been discovered.”

Well, I was going to say green as most people that have looked at their comments agree. So, now I'm going to have to say the color of a Moon stone. It's opalesnce reminds me of the white fluffy clouds that come during the spring time and makes me feel at one with the air above us. The air can bring clouds for shade or rain or even just a nice brezzy day during the spring times.
