Here is a beautiful mix for the Christmas season -- apologies that the photograph is somewhat out of focus -- this mix is of reds and greens and golds in all shades and hues and shapes and sizes.

We will include either a gold thread or a green thread or a red thread, depending on what looks best with the mix-of-the-day (always changing). If we can, we'll get the thread as shown in the photo -- it is special Xmas-color mix.

Should you have a preference, let us know.

The pattern is the same as for all of the Bead Soup and Bead Stew Bracelets -- you have the option to get it or not via the drop-down menu.

Note that the kit will not automatically include the pattern. We offer three options. I know some of you might already have made other bracelets from us that are made along the same lines, the only real changes being the beads and the colors. If you feel you do not need another pattern, simply choose "No Pattern Needed."

If you would like a printed copy, please make sure the "Pattern" drop-down menu is set to that.

We also can email the pattern to you, though I have to do it manually and usually send it right before I mail the kit (please be patient). Just make sure that drop-down menu is set as you would like before you check out.

And the clasp is either a gold tone or gold plated silver toggle set -- the gold looks very very fine with this mix and depending on what catches our fancy as we put these together, that is what we'll include.

No reservations -- this is beautiful!
