I have a set of 3 necklaces in 8/0's that are the staple of my wardrobe. However, they don't always match the greens and pinks I like to wear.

I've been on a hunt for nice pink 8/0's for a couple of months now to make a set of necklaces. I knew that Orr's Trading Company would have them if anyone did.... and I was right. I found nice hanks of Czech pinks that were not garrish yet strong enough to show up well against the matte olive I wanted to use with them.
Oh yes, and I also picked up these other colors while I was at their booth. Japanese seed beads may be considered high quality, but packaged in plastic tubes and vials, they just don't flow and puddle like a whole bunch of hanks do.
Once again (or still!!) Blogger spell check isn't working... guess I'll have a lot of material to spell check when it is up and running again - sigh!
Oh my gosh!!! I love the pictures of the beads!! I love the hanks and the bags and the shear abundance! When you find a colour you love and you can buy great amounts like that, the potential is limitless.
