Winners and What's Next?

Thanks so much to everyone who stopped by and put their bid in for beads!! It was great hearing from you!

Kristen and Diana are the lucky winners of some beads from the Cousin Corporation that were personally hand-picked from the bead warehouse wall by me! :)

What's coming up next on A Bead A Day? Swarovski crystals, yay!

I just received a tiny little stash of 10 crystals from PrimaBead.com, the fab Cousin Corp retail site. You might be wondering what's so great about 10 crystals, so I thought I'd show you.

Here's a pic from the online catalog and the details!

Swarovski 25x7mm Crystal Bermuda Blue Queen Baguette Pendant 6465, 1Pc

Is it just me or does this color leave you mesmerized and speechless too? Phew...it's so awesome!

The quality is just amazing, but what else would you expect from Swarovski?

So, back to the 10 crystals and what to make with them. Let me know your thoughts, I was thinking about a multi-strand dangly necklace. 

However, that seems a little haphazard for such a beautifully geometric and perfect piece of art. It seems like a little sketching might be needed before just jumping right in and putting pieces together. 

I'll keep you posted! I also found out today all the Cousin ambassadors will be receiving a fresh box of Swarovski in the mail this week, What a great email THAT was! :)

So, sparkle is on the way...thanks for making my day! (Ode to the Cousin Corporation)
