Other beading styles or techniques: Wire wrapping, bead weaving
Creation: none yet - trying to get over the disappointment in its appearance "in person"
"I was expecting the bead to look like the picture and it doesn't really come close. The colors in my beads are all off. The beads I received are basicly golden glass with some orange-y inclusions. The picture shows a wider, darker range of colors, including a deep blue on approx 1/4th of the bead. The blue in the 4 beads I have is more like a very small dot on only 3 of the 4 beads. As I was ordering, I pictured these beads becoming centerpieces in 2 sets of earrings. They definitely are not focal point material."
Pros: Size, Price, Versatile, Unique, Ease of Use, Quality, Color
"I loved these beads when I received them. They were true to there picture. I am going to use these beads to make rosary bracelets. They are the perfect size and I always go for the unique."

"I love all the Picasso bricks - they're not a large bead, but the square shape makes them an unusual and unique looking element. The colorings are very nice too - but they are all different, not uniform or exactly the same, so be prepared for that in your designs. I've used them in earrings and necklaces and have really liked how they turned out."
