Swarovski Notes


This began as a journey to learn how to bead a little bit at a time. I had some great local resources to ask questions, but I found that the information about color and finishes varied from place to place, As I wondered the various aisles of my favorite bead stores or on the internet, I would come across differences in names that made it difficult to find the specific colors and finishes I wanted. I would also come across abbreviations and custom finishes that I did not know. I decided to blog about some of my findings regarding Swarovski Crystals. This information is gleaned from sources on the internet. To the best of my knowledge, this information is correct, but always double check with your local bead store or online source to verify any question you may have.
