Seahawks colors
Heeeeeelp......What 104 green color do you use for seahawks colors? I've made all the beads I needed for an order just to realize I used the wrong tone of green. I used effetre pea green. Was thinking poison apple.

CIM Poison apple opacifies in the kiln to almost pastel Effetre Nile Green. At least the rods I got this year do.
This bracelet has a couple of Poison apple beads, dots are Effetre pea green, you can see the final shade is pretty different from the rod.

Thanks Katia. I had made a set with pea green and didn't think it was the right green. I made another set in the poison apple. They are in the kiln now.

Mina, both sets are beautiful! I guess the set on the second photo is with poison apple (focal has this slightly opal appearance)? I like this contrast of bright light green with pretty dense blue and sure the beads will look great in the ready peace of jewellry. Did you want the green to be shifted to a bit more "blue-ish" or "teal-ish" side? Then encasing of pea green in pale blue (or light blue or pale aqua or light aqua) may help to achive a "colder green" shade, but, again - I personally like the sets as they are.

Felicia has done some Seahawk color earrings. I think she posted them on her etsy sight. If you're at F&R meeting next Sun. you could chat with her about the colors.

Seahawks colors
Maybe it's just your photo color, but your pea green looks way more apple than mine does.

The same as mine or yours look the same as each other? On my screen, your greens are both darker than mine except for your very first photos at the top of the thread, but the green looks less bright in those.

Felicia, mine look the same. Yours looks like pea green and both of mine look like poison apple. All I know is that once I made them into jewelry they sold to the first person that saw them!
