Ok, I'm just going to post all the info I know in regards to crystallized/studded jeans and where you can get the embellishments because I get lots of PMs about this stuff. List still needs a lot of work, formatting, organization, and help from y'all!
Oh, and the best place to get nailhead studs (you know, the ones with the prongs) is Swarovski Rhinestone Heart Swarovski Rhinestone Flat Back Acrylic Rhinestones. He has a large selection.
For single crystals, best place is Swarovski Beads, Silver Beads, Glass Beads, Charms, Clasps, Alphabet Beads, Jewelry Wire - Artbeads.com.
Rhinestoneshop.com is also a good place (cheaper than artbeads), but sells only packets of 144 crystals (1 gross). Also, he doesn't have size 8ss hotfix. Swarovski Rhinestone Heart Swarovski Rhinestone Flat Back Acrylic Rhinestones also has crystals, but i think the minimum quantity is 2 gross, depending on the color and size.

The reality of fur:
-Animals (including dogs and cats) are SKINNED ALIVE for fur in China.
-85% of US fur comes from China.
-Skinned animals are left to slowly and painfully die.
Don\'t buy fur. They need it more than you do.

I can't even tell what color those crowns are. My guess is that they are crystal AB, but that guess is wild without basis.
EDIT: A little more certain/guess is a bit less wild; I think those are 12ss crystal AB.

The crystal colors for the GLCP Flynts are not correct  I was missing some of the pink crystals and ordered light peach but those are the lightest ones (the gold ones that you thought were light colorado). Any idea what the pink ones are?  Could they be vintage rose?
BTW, the wash of the crystal roths with montana crystals is Glycerine!  |

No problem! At least I can use the light peach whenever I would need to replace some of the other crystals. Sorry, I meant light topaz and not light colorado!
But I'm 100% sure that the light crystals are light peach so we just need to find out what the pink ones are,... I have already ordered vintage rose and will let you know as soon as I get them if they are the right color!  |
