There is a glass group. You may be able to buy a few rods from members. Grapevine Beadmakers Society. I'm in Wylie and can help you out. This would be more like a "hold you over until your order arrives" or possibly if you just want to see what the colors look like in person. I also make and sell bead release, just an FYI.
Ordering on line: Frantz is the original and Mikey Frantz has his "Fun House" section of one-off colors (
www.frantzartglass.com). Mountain Glass has good sales too, D&L, Glasscraft in Co and Or. and you can look for ads here on LE as well.
There are a bunch more I can't think of cuz I haven't had enough coffee yet. Almost all run specials at different times.
