Mine wasn't from the January challenge, but I sent a box out to you today.
I forgot to count them, but they are all med/large if I remember rightly.
I still have some of the frit, so more will come later but I wanted to get these in the mail because I know they're in need.

I'm glad they got there safely, and thank you again for offering to let us use your frit to make beads for the kids, and try samples of your gorgeous selection for future reference!

My pleasure!!!

I figured out what happened with the BOC samples tagging a charge. To have the built-in sale price instead of a link to follow I had to set a real price. I used to set the price to "$0.00" and then add the price to the purchase unit.

I can fix this by just having a separate listing for the BOC Sample.

Would it be Ok if I put in an order and you just add a BOC sample to it? I figured I'd just get one, because it's going to take me a few months to finish off Januarys samples, but as long as I'm ordering frit I may as well get one and save on the shipping.
It's kindof fun to be surprised too!

Of course, Misty! I'd be happy to!! Do you have a particular one in mind, or dealer's choice?

Lezlie, I'm working on that glitch - been down for a few days with a respiratory bug. I should have it ironed out in a day or half, but in the meantime, just let me know which ones you'd like to have as samples and I'll pop them in for you.

Misty, I just sent you a refund for yours

I would like to participate in the Feb. frit challenge. I just got my first order from you last week and ordered some BOC samples and I've started on some BOC beads with it and having lots of fun. I love, love, love the frit and your packaging and extra goodies are so thoughtful.

Hi Leslie! I have been wanting to participate in the BOC for a while now and have finally found the time to jump in. I put in my 1st frit order tonight and hopefully can get in on the February challenge. I am looking forward to playing with all of the gorgeous colors and making some great beads for the kids. =)

Thanks to all of you guys for playing with the frit, having fun with the challenge, and most of all making beads for Beads of Courage!!! I figured that this would be a fun way to try out new glass and make some beads for the kiddos

Still separating out BOC Sample listings from regular listings, so if there are samples that you would like to try out just shoot me a message or email, or I can just refund you for the samples - sorry about that!!!

Will be updating the list in the maniana!!

OK - all of the blends have been separated out for easy selection of BOC samples!! I'm going to break to test a couple of *NEW* frit colors and take pictures (finally) of all of those yummy BOC beads that have come in so far. As soon as the box fills up it will go off th Beads of Courage from everybody, but don't feel pressured! There's always another box waiting!!!!

What a colorful bunch for the kids!

I never thought to put my stuff on wire or line, etc.
Is that better for mailing, easier to open & sort them?
