I would love to see some old odd lots of Bullseye glass, in bead or rod form.
I'm sure there are a lot of people that have odd lot Bullseye rods in there glass stash. I have some BE rods that I'm not sure of the name of the color.
So what do you have to show and tell about? I will show you mine if you show me yours.
Thanks:grin:

I have a color called cornflower sparkle, or something to that effect. I was gifted with a half rod - I will have to try and get a pic of it tonight.

I would love to see some beads with blue green algae - it's been to cold for me to make anything with the rods I have.

I got some cool odd lot Bullseye glass. Don't no for sure what the name of the colors are though.
I think the first one is carmel swirl, corn flower sparkle, celery sparkle.

Not sure on this blue. It has a little sparkle and a streak of lite blue in it.

This first one (4 rods) looks solid black, but i tried it and it's very dark green aventurine. Next one is teal sparkle, not sure on the real name.

I bought some of these rods 2 years ago when i went to Bullseye Glass.
I would love to see what odd BE glass everyone else has. Please show and tell
Thanks

I think the ones in the middle - blue with lite blue sparkle - MIGHT be denim blue sparkle. If it has a white core, I think it is blue green algae.

bottom pic left - possibly deep aventurine.
bottom pic right - marine sparkle

cornflower is the BOMB!! I wish they would make some more of it.

the bottom pic left...
if you pull a stringer with it and the stringer is lumpy it is deep adventurine.

and I think the bottom right is
either denim or marine sparkle. I think that the denim was a bit less sparkly than the marine.

yes, it is a precious half rod - I stroke it occasionally and talk fondly to it :)

The blue ones in the middle must be denim blue sparkle, it has a streak on the surface. No such luck to be blue green algae. And bottom pic left must be deep aventurine, it is very lumpy when i pull a stringer. The bottom pic right is marine sparkle, i couldn't remember the correct name. Thanks.
That corn flower blue is my last rod and i will be keeping half of it to look at also.

Hmmmm, not using our precious rods of BE Special Production colors seems to be a common thing here :D
You did ask for bead form too, right? Here's some BG Algae....

and some caramel swirl (or creme brule, I'm not sure)....

That caramel swirl (creme brulee) bead is gorgous, Kim V! I like it a lot! Makes me wish I had gotten into Bullseye earlier so I could have some of these fun colors to play with...:pout:

Use it people! Let me see what I have in my pictures. I have to find the cd and will post later. I did just clean my computer.

But I have something for you.

Raspberry cream all by itself and Hawaiian punch over dense white for the flowers.

Alrighty, I've got pictures for you. Some are rather old, but you'll see the colors anyway :)

Here is bird of paradise, cornflower and sparkling celery. The celery gets darker the longer you work it.

he he, I've only just begun! Here is denim tint (next to erbium pink), pomegranate and tea rose - the tea rose looked the same in the rod but could be deep grape or watermelon pink when worked.

eek, here are some of my firsties. Seltzer sapharine and denim sparkle, green bean and pea pod? And here is creme brule. It is the color between the darker one which is streaky amber (vetro) and check glass shampoo yellow.

ok - I don't have a pic yet, but I used two of the shades of blue green algae tonight and OMFreakingG. One of the ones I have has a beautiful royal/cobalty blue with a white streak and I can't wait to see the beads tomorrow morning. I also used the marine sparkly looking one with the white streak. Also pretty, but I think I am going to like the first variation best.

Morning all,
Thanks for the kind words. Suzy, LOVE yours! Hard to pick which ones I like best. Squid, can't wait to see pics!! BGA is my favorite BE yet.
