Crossroads of Color Mystery Kit

Check out the LIVE broadcast from 2.20.26 to see the step-by-step how to!

The Crossroads of Color Mystery Kit is a celebration of color and bead tradition. This collection brings together a curated assortment of beads and textiles in a one-of-a-kind mix gathered just for you by Kate during our last visit with of African Trade Bead vendor. Pictured are just two of the kits… each kit will differ slightly with its own unique color combination. The components will be the same in each kit.  No two collections are identical. The mystery is part of the magic.

 Each kit includes specialty beads from Ghana- two strands of Padres and a a striped bead mix, a strand of unique Massai glass beads, and a handcrafted lampwork center bead that anchors your design with character and artistry. There is also Kate’s favorite Tibetan-style button to use as a clasp.

You will also receive a piece of African cloth from Kate’s stash tucked in with this mix. Use it as a stunning backdrop on your bead board, incorporate it into clothing or jewelry embellishments, or let it inspire your color story as you design.
