Hello: Last night I joined the snowflake beading class and loved it. My friends in the class suggested I might find the needed 25 mm paddle beads in crystal from Consumer Crafts. I searched Consumer Crafts' website and clled them on the phone, but I had no luck. The lady said I'd need an item number . I am anxious to finish my snowflake. Can anyone provide me with an item number for 25 mm paddle beads in crystal from Consumer Crafts? (The lady did find something she called starflake beads, but I didn't know if this was the same as a paddle bead.)
