What's in the Twilight Castle Collection?

Open the Doors to the Twilight Castle and Step Into Our Beaded Fairy Tale!

For February, we step into a fairy tale that feels steeped in history and fantasy. The Twilight Castle Collection is inspired by mighty medieval European fortresses and tales of secluded castles in the forest. A majestic castle rising above dense forests, its stone walls catching the last light of a dramatic purple-and-orange sunset. There’s a sense of quiet grandeur here—rich, timeworn, and atmospheric—where gold glows softly against deep greens and twilight hues. This Collection feels romantic, elevated, and full of old-world mystery.

“As daylight fades, the castle keeps its watch, high above the trees, catching the last colorful glow of sunset on its stone walls. Hidden among forested hills, it feels both distant and welcoming; a place where secrets are kept, not guarded. The mystery that surrounds it invites you to seek out your own adventure, a fairy tale full of wonder, curiosity and the promise of something wanting to be discovered.”

Now, let’s get to exploring this castle!

Seed Beads

The seed beads in the Twilight Castle Collection are carefully chosen to sit in perfect harmony with one another, creating a cohesive and richly layered base. Two custom Miyuki seed bead mixes, made exclusively for this Collection, capture the essence of the palette—tanzanite purples, antique golds, and subtle twilight tones—while coordinating seamlessly with the solid metallics and Delicas. Together, they provide flexibility for everything from detailed beadwork to simple, elegant framing.

• Miyuki ROUND 15/0 Seed Beads – Galvanized Yellow Gold (5g bag)
• Miyuki ROUND 11/0 Seed Beads – Duracoat Galvanized Matte Champagne (10g bag)

Czech Glass

The Czech glass selection brings depth, texture, and a distinctly architectural feel to the Collection. Alongside classic, universally useful shapes like FirePolish beads and MiniDuo beads, we included more distinctive elements such as Pinch beads and Bar beads, which echo the structured details of stonework and iron accents found in old castles. The finishes—lustered, metallic, and softly iridescent—tie beautifully into the twilight-inspired color story.

Crystals

Crystals are where the Twilight Castle Collection truly leans into drama and refinement. The set includes 12 crystal stones, with a standout group of six rectangular step-cut stones—a striking alternative to traditional chatons that brings a more structured, old-world elegance to designs. These, along with the oval stones, appear in Green Sphinx, our best-selling color known for its deep, enchanting glow. Additional crystal accents in tanzanite, sapphire, lilac opal, and soft pearl tones add contrast and depth without overwhelming the palette.
