Search for a bead
Hello everybody,
As a beadmaker, I also make jewelry from my handmade beads.
For a customer I want to make a necklace with the following beads:
I can not find them in Europe (at a webshop, normal shop or anything) 
Does somebody knows where I can order them in the USA, online?
Thank you very much for reading
Sonja

Sonya, would like to help but can you give more info what size are they? Looks like "Karen Hill Tribe" Serling Silver bead spacers. Try www.artbeads.com or www.firemountain.com both of these companies are based in the US.
Sure someone else will chime in also. MarieAnn

MarieAnn, thank you very much for your help!
The beads I am looking for are not the silver ones but the 'wing' shaped tuquoise shimmering beads. Tried the two companies you wrote, but they both don't have them 
I hope somebody else can help me out?
Love, Sonja

They're very difficult to see. I can't figure out what they look like. Can you post a bigger pic?

Tried that, been there.... I used the tutorial from Patti Dougherty- Batwing bead. But the hole is trough the middle and I need the hole to go thru the hole bead in the long way (hmmmm does anyone know what I mean  )
When I make it the way I want it cracks, the hole is thicker than the bead...
So I am still searching and need some help.
Thank you, Sonja
