Pear Festival- September 2019

IT'S BACK!! We have created an "ode to" the Pear Festival mix for 2024. While different from the original, every tube was curated by Janice, "I tried to get some of everything in the mix!"
We have updated the photo to reflect this new recipe, and you can find both the current and original recipes below--just in case! This is a very limited batch, but with the Pear Festival right around the corner we couldn't help re-releasing this fan favorite. Grab it while you can! Please note, as we unpack our inventory we are not shipping orders right away! We expect to start shipping orders from Sept 10 onward this weekend.

Here's the new recipe:

• 11-4244 Duracoat Silver Lined Dyed Persimmon
• 8-4515 Picasso Chartreuse Matte
• 8-1233 Matte Opaque Mustard
• 8-4517 Picasso Brown Tan Matte
• 8-1003 Silver Lined Gold AB
• 6-2040 Matte Metallic Brick Red
• Aged Czech 6/0 Blend (mix exclusive!)
• Popcorn Padres- Linen
• Popcorn Padres- Water

And here's the original version:
It’s nearly time for the annual Pear Festival! This famous fest takes place in Kelseyville, California. The last Saturday of September has visitors from around the world enjoying Lake County wine tastings, pear drinks, and a Grand Parade ending with the Los Amigos Dancing Horses.

When Emily selected the beads for this mix, she gravitated to the colors of her new home in Lake County and wanted to create a rustic mix that would blend the feel of a more organic lifestyle with the refinements of Northern California. Using both Miyuki Seed Beads and rustic Padres, this mix is a clear winner. Because this is a limited-edition mix, we recommend you purchase the mix at the beginning of the month…they go fast! If you would like to recreate the mix, beads Emily used are:

• 11-4244 Duracoat Silver Lined Dyed Persimmon
• 8-4515 Picasso Chartreuse Matte
• 8-1233 Matte Opaque Mustard
• 8-4517 Picasso Brown Tan Matte
• 8-1003 Silver Lined Gold AB
• Popcorn Padres- Natural
• Popcorn Padres- New Blue Gray
• Popcorn Padres- Red Clay

If you were to purchase all the beads separately, the cost would be more than $60! Grab your mix while it’s still available, this is a great way to try them all and have a special mix custom-blended right in our bead studio.
Sold by the tube of 20 grams. Mix may vary slightly from the photograph.
