Oh, yay! I love when I find something! The one problem with the Internet is that you have to find the name of something before you can find the something.

The Preciosa Rhinestones are relatively new and, although I'd seen them in the catalog, I didn't realize they were singles. I thought they were looped together in a chain. I'm SO excited! Thank you!
