Help me, I need crystals!

My new Sugar Plums have lost 2 crystals and one more is loose. Where can I get more and how can I attach them?
Also, is this common? Am I going to have to be extremely careful when I wear these? I only wore them one day at Christmas and was a nervous wreck!

Which color crystals are the missing ones?

I found a website with all the colors, but you have to buy a gross.

I am missing one blue and one white/clear. I would be willing to buy all 3 colors to play it safe.

That's not normal at all. Try to stick the loose one back down by running a hot iron over it... maybe there's some extra hotfix glue still on it.

The white crystals on those are probably AB's. Not sure what shade the blue is

i don't think that is normal either. i shrunk my sugarplums 2x so now they will actually stay on the whole night and wore them like 2x. since they are my only pair of crystal jeans i only wear them on special occasions . next wear will be new yr's eve .

So, where can I get the crystals? Would Seven be able to tell me what the actual colors and sizes are if I contacted them?
So it's not normal to lose crystals? Great! I don't know if the 2 missing crystals were there or not when I received them. I wouldn't have noticed unless I really inspected them. It was after I felt that one one sticking out that I started to freak and examine them more. I just don't wnat to lose anymore!

I would like to know where you can get crystals too...I can't find the packet of extra crystals that came with my gold crystal carribean A pockets! how do you attach a crystal? One of my crystals on my havanas fell off and I do have the packet of crystals that came with it and am not sure how to glue it on. (off topic, but has anybody else's havana crystals tag on the back pocket come undone? Mine is unraveling and there is thread everywhere...and I've only worn them twice! thanks!

Oh, I know I won't be wearing these to hang out in, but I want to be able to wear them and not hav to worry about them al night long!
So, you have washed yours then? I did wash mine once and was nervouse doing so. Does anyone recommend dry cleaning instead of washing? would that be safer?

The crystals are hotfix's. They have the glue built in. Put it in place on a nice flat surface, heat up your iron nice and hot, and press right down on it.

You can buy any shade of hotfix crystal on ejoyce.com , they have every shade including the special ones. Haven't ordered yet, but seemed reasonable, but again you must buy 144 per color minimum. If you ask me I think I know what sizes are used on pretty much any pair

THe purple has gotta be the Amethysts. Not positive on the blues though. I wonder if the "assorted colors" pack would give you some of all the colors?

6ss, got it! I'm thinking of crystalizing something. Hope it's not disastrous...

That's kinda what I was thinking. It's not like they cost a lot of money. SO, if the assorted ones don't have every color, I can always re-order more. I may try to contact Seven about them.
Thanks for your help.

The more crystals there are, the smaller they are.

The bootcuts have 2.8's on the middle row and 2's on the outer rows

Those are very pretty. It would be fun to "create" some of our own

Dumb question, but I dont sew or iron (yeah, i know, pathetic, eh?) - when you iron these down, are you supposed to put a piece of cloth over them??

BTW - has anyone heard from bingothedingo? She offered me one gunmetal crystal but never replied to my PM. (sorry to be OT )
