Anyone use Opal Carnelian?
I found some Opal Carnelian in my stash of stuff and just don't know what colors to use it with. Any ideas? I pulled it into stringers and it turned a nice light watermellon color. Does it get any darker than that? Does it have any cool reactions with any particular color?

Try it with light or dark ivory for a beach theme set. It gets just a tad darker than watermelon.

Use it as the base color for faux boro beads for some cool effects.
(Pull Stringers of Eff. 018 or 049 - Trans. Lt. Brown or Straw Yellow dipped in R217 - Lt. Iris Gold frit. Decorate your base bead of Carnelian and encase the entire thing.)

It turns a range of shades from pink to salmon. I like it with silvered ivory stringer. Or as a base for florals.
