This is directly from Jane's Chilly Hollow Point Adventures, http://chillyhollownp.blogspot.com/2010/12/new-year-approaches.html but I thought I'd put it here as well - Kreinik is now doing silver paillettes "of real metal". (I wonder what that means)
To quote
"Now available: Kreinik Paillettes, which are real-metal sequins, in gold (sizes #7, 12, and 14) and silver (size #7). A paillette (pronounced pie- yette) is basically a flat disc that can be couched onto needlework. They are commonly used in needlepoint, crewel, samplers, costume, historical reproductions, ecclesiastical vestments and other surface embroidery. They add a supreme elegance and unique accent to any project, ranging from ornaments to large tapestries. Paillettes are sold by the gram; amount per gram depends on the size of the paillette. Contact Kreinik."

I've never heard of silver pailletes being available before. Is it just that I'm blind?
