Wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction. I need to buy a sample board to show customers the range of swarovski crystal colours I can use when making tiaras.... anyone know where I can get one ?

I think quite a few companies do mixed bags of crystal colours which might mean you could make one if you dont have any other luck getting hold of one.

www.mailorder-beads.co.uk/ sell a pack of about 50 different coloured labeled swarovski bicones.They have come in very handy and only about £5.
Hi,
I have a bag sample set and I have to be honest it is not that easy to use as for displaying to clients. One of the online shops sells a sample board using the hotfix crystals. It looks a lot better and more professional, all teh names are printed alongside and i think it was a4 in size. I will have to try and find the name of teh website for you and post the link for you.

Boards sound good but if your combining colors in your design its good to have the opportunity to have some individual beads so you can hold them against other colours and see the colours together.

Hey there
I got my sample colours from a supplier I use noseksjustgems.com. I bought a 4mm sample board for about £5.00 I think. Just had a look she has a 3mm sample board listed for £3 but showing out of stock. Caron is very helpful if you contact her I am sure she will sort you out.
Just an idea, I retyped the board with my own logo in place and attached the beads to it.
Hope it helps.:)

Thanks to this post I now have my sample beads which is a brill as I've made more than few howlers on colour selection!
I tried using a simple colour chart which you can find on many websites but picked a colour you can't get easily in the UK (and it doesn't tell you that!) and had to order them from Australia! They are georgous and the service was excellent so it was worth it.
Cheers for the tip, has helped me heaps!
