What Colors Do You Need?
For those of you who use frit, what colors and sizes do you use most frequently?

I'm in love with olive and coral pinks right now. Vibrant blue / purples; any "coffee" looking mix or animal print.

That's a great start!
Feel free to make specific requests - vendor (unless the vendor is a proprietary blend of course, like Val Cox, Dragonfly, Glass Diversions, etc...), size, color...
Basically, I want to make sure that I carry what YOU need!

I've got most of it ground. Just another hunk to chew off, grind & sort!

Somewhere down the line, do you think you could consider offering the Multicolors, both the regular and dark (96 COE) in size #0? If you do, can you please PM and give me the heads up?
thanks!!

Great!!
How about this one in a size #0 as well, if you can?
To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 1 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
While this one doesn't make rainbow colors like Multicolor, I think people have forgotten that this frit is quite interesting. If you cook it good and hot over white, you can get deep plum and sunset orange. Over black, some stone grey and denim blue. It's cool stuff. To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 1 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
I want to try the Multicolors in place of what I normally use raku for, to get a little more color. Oooo ideas cooking away in my head already! I used Multicolor #1 and got raku-like results that I was please with, and I'm sure I can get what I'm after with the smaller size #0.

I love high contrast in colors that coordinate, rather than contrast in the same color family. Does that make any sense?

Yes it does. Do you have any in particular that you would like? I can also work up blends for you if there are families in particular that you really like.

For me, it's always been the larger sizes. I
like it about the size of pretzel salt or larger.

I've been looking around for Double Helix frit for a while, particularly in the latest colors (Ekho, Clio, Terra2). Double Helix doesn't seem to have produced those in frit yet. I don't know whether anybody is making frit from rods to sell?

Hi Leslie!
If I'm not too late, here's 4 more I would like to have in size #0
Reddish Amethyst R-12 - it's a distinctly different shade of violet than the other two I had you order before. Lovely!
Fuchsia R-9 - a pinkier pink than the cranberry I love (which I will be getting more)
Light Beige R-161 - I'm thinking this one is very similar to Gaffer's Latte, and the Gaffer is "dusty", which I'm not crazy about. Reichenbach's small frit is so nicely sized and clean.
Old Pink Rose R-150 - I had this one in size #0 years ago and loved it!
As soon as everything is in, I will be placing a big order. But if you can't order these I'll understand!
I haven't forgotten about the bead photos with the beads I make with #0 frit, Leslie...I've just been so busy with Etsy! As soon as I get time to breathe I will be making new beads to show off the frits.

You are awesome!!! I will never ever have to worry about buying kilos and 1/2 kilos to get the colors and frit sizes I need!
I'm especially excited about you ordering that light beige, because it looks to be in the same color family as the tobacco colors. So more than likely it will have the look I'm after. To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 1 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
