Uroboros Cotton Candy Grape: Pictures?
I freakin LOVE this color, but I never use it for anything other than spacers. It just looks so lovely in rod form that I'd hate to ruin it with my mangled attempts to make something pretty.
Encased in Grape, Urobium Pink, Neon Orchid, unencased
Does anyone else love this color? Have you done anything with it? Pics, please.

I have it, but I haven't figured out what to do with it yet! I don't think I've used it for anything.

Well I only had half a rod of the Cotton Candy (and a bunch of Lilac). I made some beads and the Cotton Candy looked like it might strike to pink, similar to Bullseye Peony Pink. I could not get it to strike except in streaks, I probably wasn't patient enough. Now I *need* more of this color.

You could do half and half lentils with a pale transparent as the other half and a swirl in the middle. Simple but pretty.
I'm thinking something like sculptural bell flowers would look lovely too.

I'm not sure this is the best use of the Grape, but here it is with my Boysenberry frit blend.

I have it also but don't think I have any pix ... it's beautiful as a soft lavendar base under frit blends. Let me look around ... see if I can find where I have any. I think the finished necklaces sold long ago.

I know that the Cotton Candy Grape & Cotton Candy Pink were discontinued in the sheet & frit form. Is it still available in rods?

Okay ... a couple quick pix. Not the best. It is a 3-d day here (dark, dank and dreary).
Two shots of the same beads (one was too dark the other too light ... adjusted the white point on both)
On the left(front) Val Cox Montemarre frit on the right (back) Frit Diva Spaceball or BeHappy can't remember which. Both layered overtop of Cotton Candy Grape.
I think the CC Grape is still available in rod ... It's still on several vendors websites. Would be good to know if it is going to disappear.

Cotton Candy Grape is still available in rod form. I don't think they ever made Cotton Candy Pink in rod.
