Chantal purchased some vintage Swarovski crystal beads in a gorgeous apple green. Then she left feedback about her purchase that made me laugh out loud. I simply had to go over to her shop to see what she was doing with the beads! And here is what I found in her brand new Etsy shop....

If you visit Chantal's shop, be sure to notice her shop banner also - it's a band of shimmering color, mezmerizing!
