Though I'm not a fan of snakes, I was captivated by this one. The colors of the snake, the drops of water, the black background... all combined to make a remarkable photo that was the inspiration for this mix.

A hank of 11/0 size seed beads has approximately 4500-5000 beads, or about 40 grams. There are 12 bead strands in a hank, looped and gathered at one end. The 11/0 size seed bead is ~1.8mm to 2mm in size. PRECIOSA ORNELA is one of the world’s most significant manufacturers of a wide range of types of Czech glass seed beads and beads. PRECIOSA Rocailles are the most used type of glass seed beads. They were created in Venice, Italy in the 15th century. These beads have been produced industrially in Bohemia since the 18th century. Tips for new beaders:The 11/0 size seed bead is ~1.8mm to 2mm in size. The hole size is quite small. It will take a beadalon type stringing material of .015 through one pass. It will take a cord of .115mm or smaller through 2 passes with a size .024 beading needle with collapsible eye. You can also use Nymo thread sizes A, B, and D and size 12 English beading needles. If you're getting beads on a hank, the best way I've found to use them is to hold the strands by the ends down low over a bowl. Cut the strands where they loop at the bottom and CAREFULLY empty the strands into the bowl. Pick out any stray pieces of string and then pour the beads back into their plastic bag.
