Question:
I can picture exactly what I want. I've seen photos of similar
curtains in magazines I no longer have.
I am looking for clear glass bead curtains. Bead shape is less
important than the spacing. The strands of beads are close enough
together that the curtains themselves look almost solid. I have an
indigo dining room with pewter-ish faux pressed tin ceilings and
"linen white" trim, and a clear glass bead curtain would be phenomenal
in the windows.
Most of the beaded curtains I've found on Google is acrylic or
plastic, and/or have bead strands at least an inch apart. I'm looking
for something much more substantial.
I found an old thread in this group from 2002, sounds like this guy
was looking for essentially the same thing and failed to find it...

I'm hoping things have changed in the last 2 years , Any suggestions?
Answer:
- I figured that since I'm the Google Queen in my house, (I google something on
average of 4-6 per hour, lol) I might be able to find you something.
And yep, sure enough, I found this:
http://www.shimmerscreen.com/shimmerchain/
It looks like what you described...clear glass, nearly solid appearance.
Perhaps you could contact this company?
-Thanks for looking! I had actually seen that site, and it's pretty
close, but there are like 2 dozen finishes - no clear
-This just might be the website you want:

Hope it is helpful.
-Crystal Diamond Cut Iridescent Beaded Curtains
(http://store.yahoo.com/wickedcoolstuff/crysdiamcuti.html) were a
definite possibility... until I realized they were plastic.
