For those that have the Spring Green VPH spheres

Just wondering if all three of the spheres match really well? The set I received don't seem to match. The biggest one is a little different than the other two. Maybe it's not that noticeable to anyone but OCD me!

I don't have them but FWIW, I would probably be ok with it as long as the colors blend nicely in tone, and don't create an odd contrast.

I suppose I can live with it. Things like that just bug me though. The middle size sphere does not have as much "mercury" finish on it if you know what I mean. It's not as speckled and you can see in to it more than the other two.

I understand because things like that bug me too. The candles with the large gold tips that I ordered in the past were like that. There were areas where there was almost clear glass and no mercury finish.

If the last few days are any indication, there will be other as is green sets to try.

I know, I'm no help!

No, you are a big help actually. I need someone to tell me to not fret! There are "as is" green right now but I hate that shipping back and forth thing.

Hi mallemo,

Check your emails. I just checked and there is no tracking info on my green spheres. Have no clue where they are. They were shipped on the 6th. So who knows. Hope they aren't lost in never never land.

I hope not too. That happens to me a lot with Q pkgs. It takes forever for tracking info. to show up.

I have this issue with the red color. I don't think it's a quality issue, but rather how the lights wash out some colors as the spheres get larger in size.

For example, my smallest red sphere is a deep, true red. The middle one is reddish/orange, & the largest one is orangish/red. Unlit, the colors look identical. I don't notice it as much with my Amber spheres.

I don't think I'd like it if they all didn't match. I ordered the green as is, but last minute switched to amber. Hope I made the right choice. I decided they went with the decor better. My primary colors are brown and sage green. They just went into shipped status yesterday. I'm hoping they make it here by the end of the week.

I think the amber will look very nice with your brown and sage green. I love the color combo of choc. brown, sage green and copper. The amber is close to copper I'm assuming. Let us know what you think when they arrive.
