I had ordered some new beads a while back and they finally turned up.

These in a donut-like shape called "rondelle" in particular have caught my eye.
Green is amy favourite colour and these were a bargain. Described as semi-precious peridot, I can't be sure if they are or not.

I get plenty of wear out of anything black and I have an idea to try with square beads.

These are more rondelles, but of a smaller size and I am still wondering how best to use these.
