Seed Bead Colours

Have you ever wanted to know the range of colours available in Seed Beads? It'a actually possible to download pdf copies of sample cards from some of the main bead manufacturers. You can use these in planning future projects.

For Toho Beads (including Treasures and Aiko), go here:
http://www.tohobeads.net/sample/sample.html

For Miyuki Beads, go here:
http://www.miyuki-beads.co.jp/english/seed/01.html

The Toho beads sample cards are only shown in html format. If you want to download a copy, it's probably easiest to print each page using a pdf convertor.

You can also obtain colour charts for Swarovski products. Go here:
http://crystallized.swarovski.com
and search for 'colour range'. You'll have to scroll through to find the relevant colour charts. It used to be much easier to find the relevant page but they seem to have re-designed their web-site.
