Now i'm quite excited about this new coloured mesh tubing. I wasn't so keen at first but when you see it filled with sparkly silver lined Miyuki seed beads and adorned with a twinkling Swarovski Chaton....well...see for yourself. These follow the bright and colourful festival tradition but add a little more sophistication too. Look out for our new collection of coloured nylon mesh tubing and YouTube video on how to make these 'Miyuki Sparkle Bracelets' appearing on the website very soon.
