These things are called by many names: dew drops, rain drops, skittles etc. They are a little piece of acrylic or plastic that can be dyed to match whatever you are working on. They can be used in the centers of flowers, in place of brads, etc. I've been dying clear ones with Adironack Alcohol Inks by Tim Holtz (love his stuff). I found my clear ones at Ben Franklin for $11.99 for a 16 oz bag. They were made by Darice and are called Lustre Gems. Beware....they are very addicting. Every work space in my craft room was covered with the wet colors a couple days ago. I'm still waiting for new Michael's coupons so I can go buy more inks !!!! Back to my school days of mixing colors together and keeping a chart of what they produce.....I've come up with some really pretty colors this way.
