Where To Shop
When it comes to sourcing your beads, there are many options to explore, whether you’re looking for something local or shopping online. When shopping, the most important things to check are the bead size, hole size and quantity listed in the materials guide for your project. For similar beads to the ones we use, try searching for terms like “faceted acrylic beads,” “acrylic round beads” or “transparent faceted beads,” along with the size you need. Because our bag projects use quite a lot of beads, always double-check the quantity in each packet before ordering. We’ve included some suggested places to start below, depending on where you live.
