CiM Seashell is a pale creamy colour that could be a slightly pinkish ivory. It is actually very close to my own skin tone - which really sa...

CiM Sherbert - Sherbert they called it - and Sherbert it is. A smooth cool, creamy green mint or maybe pistachio colour. All three beads...

Just so you can see both Breeze and Mediterranean in the same picture - here they are together. CiM tells me that Mediterranean may not be...

CiM Mediterranean - a transparent dark blue-green. This is another beautiful dark teal. It is quite dense - on left are two self colour...

Yep - I'm definitely losing track. CiM Tandoori, again , but the good news it - consistent results! Slow, controllable strike means ...

CiM Damson - purple as in Damson plums. This is a very red-purple when thin, and practically black when not. Here - two sel...
