Tony Maxwell Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 Does anyone else wish that the mail order houses would all use the same names for the different colors? I've been looking at Barlows, Jann's, and the living rubber catalog and most have different names. I understand "glitter" don't have a clue about "glimmer", "crystal", "candy", or "hologram". Thanks for letting me vent. I feel better already. Back to the workshop. Later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old man in the boat Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 And be careful because some of them are about 20% narrower........... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Maxwell Posted February 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 Had a brainstorm in the middle of the night. Am starting a file with samples of each color, including the color #, catalog description, I.E. Golden Shiner, and where I ordered from. Eventually I should have a binder which can be used to reference skirt strips. The pictures in the catalogs don't help a lot. Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDC Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 I feel your pain. Also they don't all have the same color. I use the Nature Edge green pumpkin and dark watermelon and have to get them at different places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
