Last week was a fun bead mail week and if you are on Instagram be sure to check out the video on @mcctrish’s page of us opening Julia’s wax sealed packages. So much fun! Here is what was inside. Trisha’s is on the right.
Today I’ve got some bracelets using True Touch Eastern Sea, below to the left of the fish and True Touch And Quiet Flows the Don to the right of the fish. In the photo below the beads are in water.
On Monday the new lunch box I had ordered arrived and I thought it looked good with these colours! All the glass beads are from the Touch line and here are the colours, from left to right…Sky Blue/Pumpkin/And Quiet Flows the Don/Eastern Sea/Pumpkin/Sky Blue. The silver beads are Redbalifrog’s Rope, Frangipanis Forever and the True Beadz 2016 is in the centre.
The only lime green bead I have is called Peter, by Trollbeads, so I added a bangle with the Bumble Bee and Beehive Spacers.
Yesterday I wore this combo. The Eastern Sea colour goes really well with Ohm Beads’ Blue Holes!
Here is a photo showing almost all of the True Touch beads, in the order they appear on Julia’s website. Hopefully this will be a useful reference for someone!
Row 1 Strawberry/Stormy Heavens/Royal Viola/Purple Dream/Lilac
Row 2 Taiga/Eastern Sea/And Quiet Flows the Don/Sky Blue/Baby Blue/Marmor
Row 3 Blue Mist/Princess Kiss/Baby Pink/Terracotta/Pumpkin/Sunflower
Row 4 Sunlight Spot/Castle Stone/Dragon Green/Linen/Siberia
Disclosure: For this blog I may receive some items as promotional samples.
The Taste Eastern Sea and Quiet Flows the Don were some of my first True Beadz – lovely colors both, and the I think I Should add the Touch beads in those colors to my collection someday. The colors just look so rich in the Touch beads. I also used those colors in a tropical bracelet! π

Kim, I wish we could be magically transported to Greece to take some photos of our beads with the water there!

Ohhhhh yes, that sounds lovely. Especially now since we’ve been getting very hot humid weather, and it is supposed to stay like that all week. I’ll just have to close my eyes and dream of floating in a calm blue sea.

The True Touch beads really are wonderful, very thick with colour and they do feel beautiful, too. I love Taiga and Eastern Sea, but the blues and pumpkin colours are also lovely together, also with your pretty new lunch bag. Her colours and designs are amazing!

Sarah, just when I think I’ve settled on a favourite colour, another one comes along. The Eastern Sea especially makes me think of beautiful warm water. Glad you like my new lunch bag too! I will be happy to pack it come September!
