Istanbul bead shopping

I have been bead shopping in Istanbul already twice.  Of course you can find a variety of

gemstones and great items in the 'Grand Bazaar' but my favorite place is the Marputcular Is Merkezi.

A variety of little shops selling gemstones, beads and craftmaterials all kind.

My friend Marinka was in Istanbul and brought me these special gemstones.

And I made another 'Les Doux & Durs' with it !

I heart macro
