Hello Maureen,
Well, I have combed all my sources and I am sending you off the colours that are available for the wine border. I have a very particular eye, and want you to have the colour that will work best. So I am going to get these off to you tomorrow morning.
In the mean time:
Yes the bevels in general are clear, but the green leaves you see in the video are beveled, and the only coloured ones I use (they are so beautiful!!). We could certainly use the green leaves in the corner pieces and in the center piece, as that would bring them together as a set.
Do you want the centerpiece that is in Edel's? or do you want me to start from scratch. I could give you the corner piece there for her shop price...a custom one would be more, I will outline this later.
I am going to send you a small square that I sometimes use instead of bevels, called German Hand Pressed Jewels. They come in limited colours, but are very pretty. I usually use them as corner colour within a beveled border...see what you think and all this will come clear during the layout process.
We can also add small tiny circular GHPJ to the wire work and leaves if you wish...also layout decisions.
I am assuming from your letter that you like the border setup in the photo you took, except for the tapered edges you want to use. I had two examples for you, a three border window and a two border window. In your description of what you preferred I have this:
1. Outside border with beveled glass (this would need to be a square ended border as in the photo)
2. Secondary border with confetti
3. Third border with wine.
Did you want to have outside beveled and inside a mix of wine and confetti? I have two schools of thought: Keep the dark border on the outside and "frame" the panels, or do what you have described and make the panels very light and airy.
I decided to post ideas here for you, so take a look and we will go from here.
They are about to fix the internet so I have to go!!
