From my profile: My favorite colors are Peridot, Lime, Black, Forest Green, Mustard, Orange, and earthy tones. NO PLASTIC BEADS, whimsical Resin Beads are okay with me.

Hi beadeful, I am thinking of joining but can you tell me what a plastic bead is please :)

beadeful 03/ 7/2009 #

Natashaf, most plastic beads are the beads that come in the kid kits, and pony beads, or beads that have the lines on the sides that you can tell are perforated lines, here's an example

Thanks beadeful, but I am guessing glass/wooden beads are ok? If so I may sign up :)

I much prefer matching beads that I can use for earrings (if at all possible) you can check out my jewelry at maryellendoran.etsy.com to get an idea of what I do. Thanks in advance for the beads.
