Meet Crushed Ice AB—a crystal-clear hotfix rhinestone with brilliant Aurora Borealis (AB) reflections designed to sparkle beautifully while allowing the color beneath the stone to influence its overall appearance. 💎🌈✨
Unlike AB rhinestones built around a strongly colored base, Crushed Ice AB is crystal clear beneath its reflective finish. This allows the color of the fabric underneath to show through and become part of the finished look.
Put it on black and it becomes dramatically deeper. Place it over a bright color and that color can influence what you see through the stone—all while the AB finish throws flashes of blue, aqua, purple, pink, gold and other rainbow reflections as the light changes.
That makes Crushed Ice AB incredibly versatile for apparel, lettering, bridal and formal designs, dance and performance wear, accessories and projects where you want sparkle that works with the color underneath it.
The fabric brings the color. Crushed Ice AB brings the sparkle. 💎🌈✨
Perfect for Sublimation Upgrades
Clear rhinestones are a beautiful way to add sparkle over sublimated designs on suitable polyester. Because sublimation becomes part of the polyester rather than creating a separate layer on top of the garment, the rhinestones can be applied directly over the design while the sublimated colors remain visible beneath the clear stones.
Important: For apparel, we do not recommend applying hotfix rhinestones over HTV, DTF or screen-printed transfers. These create a layer between the rhinestone adhesive and the fabric, which can prevent the hotfix adhesive from properly bonding with the garment fibers and may cause stones to release during wear or washing.
Sublimation brings the artwork. Clear rhinestones bring the sparkle. 💎✨

We do our best to photograph and display colors accurately. However, slight variations in color may occur between batches, and colors may appear differently depending on lighting, viewing angle, the color beneath the rhinestone, and screen/device settings.
Because Crushed Ice AB is crystal clear beneath its AB reflection, the color of the material underneath can influence its finished appearance. Its AB reflections will also shift as the lighting and viewing angle change.
If adding to stones you already own, we recommend purchasing enough for your entire project at one time for the closest possible match.
