This week, one lucky winner will win five Czech glass "shortie" strands courtesy of Raven's Journey! The strands include a nice range of sizes, shapes and colors. Speaking of color, I absolutely adore the rich, vibrant saturation. The beads are so luscious! The picture doesn't do them justice! Raven's Journey makes some of the best Czech glass; they always have a unique selection that I haven't seen anywhere else!
To enter to win these brilliant Czech glass beads, all you have to do is leave a comment on this blog post. One winner will be randomly selected from the comment section of this blog post on Monday (May 31st) at midnight EST. Make sure to leave your name if it doesn't already appear next to your comment.

Aren't the folks at Raven's great? And I agree, I never see chech done like theirs....well at least not until someone starts copying theirs....I usually buy from them at the International Quilt Show here in Houston and have missed them the past couple of years....looks like I need to make a point to see them this year....
My first reaction to these beads was "Mmmmmmmmm". They are beautiful!
Thanks for the chance to win!!
I use Czech glass in nearly every one of my designs & these are just beautiful - count me in!
Now I'm off to check out Raven's Journey!

I'm with you, Andrew, I LOVE these colors! And I prefer using Czech glass in my work (if not using Artbeads) because they are of better quality.
I hadn't heard of Raven's Journey, so thanks for mentioning them and I'll check them out!

What beautiful colors. I have to love colors that work equally well all year round.
Thanks for the giveaway!

Yes, they are a beautiful grouping of beads as everyone else has said. I find them to be rich, royal colors, suitable for any season or occasion, dress them up or down, they work to make you look good and feel good. Beads can change a mood of ordinary, into extraordinary, simply by your own designs. Unique creations blended with the generosity of others make the best creations to wear and share. I would love to have these to work with, thanks for the offer. Enjoy the holiday and upcoming summer inspiration! Chris khakit@verizon.net
Gorgeous beads. I'd love to work with them.
