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.)

Cathy Miller in Louisiana who is wondering what a finished  snowflake 
lookks like
