The color combination in this bead set turned out beautifully. The green beads served as the primary focus, while the gold and light topaz accents complemented them perfectly. To create these beads, I used turquoise frit, a touch of Buen Camino frit, and some shimmering gold stone. The added layer of clear glass provided extra depth to the colors. Overall, the result is simply stunning!

Here is a closer look at the green bead. The color is so pretty. The color landed somewhere between green and turquoise. The gold beads are created with a custom frit blend. This was created by using large chunks of Effetre turquoise frit which seemed to expand inside the clear.

Here is another view of just the green beads. Sometimes they lean more blue depending on the size of the turquoise chunks. The other shades of green and blue are coming from the Buen Camino frit. I am currently testing other combinations to find some other good color combinations. This particular color paired well with brown and gold.

This is another color variation to these beads, but I used blue colors instead which paired nicely with topaz brown colors.

You never know what you can create when you step out of your comfort zone and try new things. When I originally bought this large frit, I was unsure of its potential, but it has proven to be incredibly versatile and useful in my projects.
