  • Where Does Everybody Get Their Beads From?

    Hi Ya'all Ive just stared beading this year . I was recently told to go to the online bead companies because the local stores here don't carry all the bead colors and styles I need.So I did . The bead colors arent what I expected ,its too late to order more for the earring orders I have to do .
    My question is , Where do you all get your beads? I need good companies that ship fast and the colors are true. I would rather get them made in the USA. Thank you all for your help

                                Most good beadworkers know that you can't make fine beadwork without starting with quality materials.

                                These days a lot of people seem to be using transparent beads with a lot of shine to them. So lets hear about what type of beads you are using, (size, style, Czech, French, other?)...

                                Most of my work has been 11/0 on loom, and locally the only places I've been able to get anything from is the Hobby Lobby (not much in the way of trading posts where I'm at, not many NDNs here, but I digress). I ventured recently, after a long beading...

                                Other than firemountain & shipwreck, can anyone recommend other places to get 3-cut size 12/0 sead beads, that has a good color selection.

                                Does anyone know where I can get some beads this size?
