1. what color stones would work well on a deep, bright watermelon?

2. where do y'all get your appliques? i need a few, and have a good idea of what i want, but just am not sure where to look to find them.

3. i have a few swarovski fancy stones on an outfit that i need to replace. can anyone point me to a website or chart that has measurements of the fancy stones in millimeters or the like so that i can make sure i'm ordering the correct stones/sizes?

thanks in advance.

I love AB's and crystals, because they work with everything, but I used mostly Padparadscha AB's on a Watermelon color I did. With the center stones and pear shapes in Crystal AB. I wish I had gone heavier on the Crystal AB, since the color I went with, was unusual and I wanted a little more sparkle. I guess I can always add more AB's to the exiting pattern, but I'm onto her next dress.

The color I went with was a Watermelon you can see the color on the bow...the overlay organza was an irridecsent/ watermelon with yellow. (It's very hard to capture the true color in the photo...but really stands out on stage). Here are couple of photos for reference:

Low lighting to show stone pattern vs. actual color.

A littel bit better idea of the color (The bow is a better idea of the true color).
