RP: Help me pick out Swarovski crystals

This is for my Soon to Be Mrs... tracksuit that my friend is making me. I need to provide him the materials...

First of all how many equals 1 gross?

also - how many would I need to write all that out (last name has 6 letters)

Someone who has some knowledge with this pease check out the websites and tell me which deal is the best (I'm bad at that!)

also - one of the websites says size 20 is ideal for clothes - it looks about right - maybe a bit smaller, like 16 would also work?

please help!!!

you need size 20. You would be surprised how small 16 is. I ordered all these little crystals from artbeads and so many are tiny. It was for my cake topper but I only ordered 20 size 20 in one color vs. an array in another color.

I agree. I'd go with size 20.
I had ordered size 20 to add on to one of my outfits, and i was really surprised how small it was!

Re: RP: Help me pick out Swarovski crystals

your going to need at least 5 gross! and i would go with size 30 - size 20 is even too small to do what your looking to do! (Take it from me, Im a dance teacher & have stoned MILLIONS of costumes) - go on ejoyce.com - they are very resonable and even have the self -adhevsive ones so you dont need any glue
