Blank "sample color" chart for CIM????
 I'm just wondering if there's a blank one of these anywhere? I'd like to start my "Chip Chart" So I can ID some colors quickly if need be.
Thanks!

yeah, I guess that will work. But Bullseye and Moretti have a "chip" chart. I think I need something more like that especially with all those odds coming out.
Thanks for the link tho.

I made a chart for myself. I took foam core, thinnest I could find at Michaels. I made a list of all the colors I wanted to have on these boards. I wanted a quick reference by color( Red, Neutrals, Green, Blue...). So I took all the red glass from the different manufacturers, drew a grid on a piece (8 x 10) foam core, typed a label for each square and have enough for 2 chips in each square...one regular glass color, one for an etched version and glued in place. Each board has extra squares for new glass. For glasses that may not be around or are special...Vetrofond ODD, Effetre Cool Colors....
It helps me for when I'm looking for that particular color and also, for my beading group to identify "spacers" in a certain color they may need. I like showing the etched version of a particular color because I'm usually very uneasy about whether I would like a certain color etched or not.
I know it may sound like a lot of work, but it really wasn't once I got oraganized. Some days I just made chips, but every time I torch, I make a few for my boards!

I made one for myself today, and thought I'd share it here if you want it...
