what do you do when??

You need to get some more snaps of one colour, but you don't know what the colour is?

Very :?

Go back and find your original order and find out what colour they were :).

Take a photo of it and email it to me and Ill see if I know , or if I can match it to any of mine :D
How many are you needing? I might be able to give you some if they match some I have(I got a BOX FULL of snaps with my Baby Harmony stuff :D )

I know what you mean I think! I've had colours which were swapped with someone else, or someone else ordered them for me, and I have no idea what they were! I had to ask Jo a while back which red I had cos they were on her order! What colour do you think you're looking for? Cos if its one that I have we might be able to do a matching test. Apart from that, I think greenbeans do sample packs? But not 100% sure on that.

Well I got these aaaages ago in a snap co-op, so got a whole variety of colours.

The ones I am stuck with are between pastel pink and baby pink, and there is also a really dark pink that looks similar to red.
I am actually snapping some nappies for our neighbours daughter and had a lovely dark pink snap - but not enough of them.
But I have improvised and used some the lighter pink shades.
However, I now have to order more of them...

not very helpful right now, but whenever janine (username janine lol) got a new snap colour, she would stick one piece onto a big piece of card with it's name next to it, so she always knew what they were called & also could match fabrics up against them all to pick the best one! very organised & very cool! :D

The really dark pink similar to red is probably red (not GB red) If it's a washed out red.
If it was a co-op I did it is baby pink as I never ordered pastel pink.
GB sample packs are just loose snaps so no help naming he colours

That is a very very good idea about the card with the snaps on it!!
I am going to start one :D

Yes I was wondering about the GB snap samples, whether they would be labelled or not.

There was a pink pastel and baby pink photographed next to each other, but it is still hard to know which one i have!

I thought it was the other way round? I have both, and could bring them to MM if that helps, but they're not labelled so I'm only going on what I know . . . which seems to be different than what Happi said, so maybe I'm wrong! :lol:

I will be working this Wednesday, so won't be at MM...

I have ordered through Natty one of them. So when it turns up I can compare them.

Yeah, Ive got all my snaps in containers (3 long for the cap, stud and other one lol) and I have the sticker that now comes on the packs from GB in one of the compartments! :) Works a charm when I have about 4 different pinks :roll:

I really need to do that but it would be a mission now.
Happi is right about the pink I think. Baby pink is the one I have and it looks totally solid to me

I was reading this thread the other day, it might help - someone has taken a photo and had someone else name them all?

viewtopic.php?f=5&t=68058&start=15

oh but i can tell you for definite that baby pink is paler than pastel pink
