I was looking through my bead stash to pick out colours for my beaded DeLorean DMC-12 when I realized I have many choices of seed beads!
First I looked through my gray beads, then I looked through my metallic beads...
Then, I remembered I had these:
These are some of the beads I purchased in the Czech Republic! They are steel-coloured glass seed beads. Hex cuts and bugles. I'm not sure, but I think they're gonna make my beaded time machine look cool! Now, I better get beading! :D

My mouth is salivating. I love your selections. I look forward to seeing your project complete.
Czech beads are cool. Czech beer is pretty cool too!
Interesting, how many beads you have. :D
I love seeing beads in packages. There's something so fun about all of them in there, waiting to be used in creations!
I do have alotta beads, don't I?? :o
And, did someone say beer? :D
I love the colors you picked...just one suggestion...the edges of the hex and the bugles look fairly sharp so if you have a round seed bead to string between them, it will keep them from cutting your thread.
Beadbabe! Thanks for the suggestion. I know that trick but never remember to do it! Instead, I usually stitch very wide and use a lot of thread...
What a choice!
Do you ever use Venetian glass beads? I have a friend who regularly travels to Venice to buy glass beads to make jewellary with and I remember she used to make children's necklaces out of tiny little coloured glass beads from Venice.
HI Lorenzo! I have not seen many Venetian glass seed beads in America, so I'm thinking about traveling there to find some myself! :D
I knew you would have some! I just knew it. Those are cool beads for your car.
Lazy, me? You bet!
WOW this is awesome. I can't wait for you to start sewing the bead on!
