Introducing The Berry Frost Collection: A Tale of Winter’s Boldest Beauty

As winter lingers and the world stays wrapped in frosty hues, a striking contrast emerges—the bold burst of red against a landscape of icy blues and shimmering whites. This is Berry Frost, our February 2025 collection, an ode to resilience, warmth, and the quiet power of beauty amidst the cold.

The world is asleep and quiet, wrapped in icy blues and soft whites, every detail sharp and still in the winter chill. Yet, cutting through this frozen calm, a burst of vivid red emerges—bold, resilient, and alive. These bright accents tell a story of life persisting, of warmth glowing against the cold, the two realms intertwining and coming together to create beauty. Let these colors inspire you: cool serenity, touched by fierce, vibrant hope.

With a palette of cool whites, soft baby blues, deep cranberry reds, and antique copper, Berry Frost captures the essence of a frozen landscape kissed by fiery brightness. It’s the perfect collection for beaders who love striking contrasts—a blend of cool serenity and unapologetic vibrance that invites you to create pieces that tell a story.

Let's get right into it, then, and discover what the Berry Frost Collection has to offer!

A Collection of Captivating Elements

Berry Frost brings together a carefully curated selection of high-quality beads and findings, allowing you to craft designs that shimmer like fresh-fallen snow and glow like winter berries in the frost. Let's discover each group of products individually and discuss the highlights of this winter collection!

Japanese Seed Bead Excellence

Once again, we propose 5 tubes of finest Japanese beads to get your creative juices flowing. Among those included, you will find 2 tubes of Miyuki and 3 tubes of TOHO seed beads to ensure impeccable stitch work and stunning beadwork details.

Czech Glass Magic

This time, we went with the classics & the favorites: smooth Druks offer very berry look with their striking transparent siam shade (and you get them in 2 sizes: 6mm and 2mm); Firepolish beads in matte crystal rainbow provide some icy glow, SuperDuo beads in pearly white offer infinite possibilities and some calm structure, and the gorgeous Luster - Opaque Blue Ginkgo beads are something you cannot miss in your projects this winter.

Crystal Clear Brilliance

With this collection, we've included 3 Krakovski Crystal pear-shaped stones in Light Siam: one larger and two smaller ones. A particular highlight of this collection are Krakovski 8mm chatons in out-of-this-world beautiful Lt. Sapphire DeLite, of which we included 4. The 1088 cut (with classic extra pointy back, as opposed to some of our other Krakovski chatons) gives it extra sparkly depth. To complete the collection of Krakovski Crystal goodies, we added a 100-piece strand of our new beyond stunning iridescent blue pearls. With all that crystal, we felt Berry Frost still needed some more shine, so we threw in 2 strands of Chinese crystal rondelles: in shimmery white and transparent Siam red. And let's not forget about the sparkly 3mm PRECIOSA Crystal bicones!

A Perfect Winter Findings Finish? Antique Copper!

From two ball-and-socket clasps to elegant ear wires, Cymbal Metal Elements, charming 8mm metal beads, and an exquisite decorative button, these warm metallics ground the collection with an old-world charm.

A Winter of Inspiration

We have as many as 3 different designs prepared using beads from the Berry Frost Collection. Our tutorial for a cute Berry Whirl bracelet is already out, and if you're craving something more, we'll soon have something for those who love a good pair of earrings, and for fans of festive royal necklaces you can make in under 1 hour!

We love our collections. Since they are not a subscription, they’re completely commitment-free; you just get the ones you like, and you can get as many as your heart desires. Plus, not only are they always a really great deal, they are a palette pre-selected for you by a designer, with all the best quality beads and findings, most of which, if you prefer, you can get from us separately as well. And isn’t a beautiful curated collection complete with an inspiration photo insert just the perfect gift for any creative person?

Be bold and create your own dreamy icy story this February!
