Even more black and white

I've made a couple of smaller strands of black and white beads. I also made a dozen in black, white, light turquoise and orange-red.

I forgot to say in my previous black and white beads posts that the black is Effetre 064 and Effetre intense black 066 and the white is Effetre 204.

The light turquoise here is Effetre 232 and the orange-red is Effetre coral 420. Coral varies from batch to batch and this is a particularly red version.

These strands are all for sale in my shop. I know they're quite pricey but, as usual, they're not as pricey as they should be. All that dot placement and careful melting-in takes time. (I always feel the need to justify the price tag.)

I'm still not done with this style of bead, or the black and white, so I'll keep going. I think I'll try adding a touch of lavender-blue next time.
