"Budgerigar is a new misty opal green, close to Mantis but has noticeably more yellow tones, and is more translucent than Jelly Bean. It melts smoothly in the flame with no issues. As these new opals have been developed to stay translucent, they are ideal for layering which can open up to a whole range of colour possibilities! I have used it to encase over Effetre Daffodil and CiM Foam, and it gives a gratifying depth to a bead. On the heart bead I used it as a base for a reactive lustre glass and it really makes it sing! A truly beautiful shade."
