Thank you for this starter kit video. I wish there was one like this when I first started beading. This is a great video to brush up on starting new projects and designs.

Thank You for info . I am not anymore beginner, been beading some years but I find these videos very informative, good way to brush up your memory . I went to check starter kit, which I wish would have been around when I started . Who ever is at start of their beading adventure kit is great buy, trust me I wasted tons of money trying to figure what I actually need and quality . Quality of supplies is more important some ways as your skill . If stuff you use is so and so, even best have hard time to make memorable pieces you can be proud years to come . Like in everything you get what you pay for . Good quality beads might cost more but you do not waste your money . I so wish I would have known everything I know today about supplies and I am sure so would be my hubby who pick the bill from my hobbies . :P

This was a very good beginners video. Wish I a had this when I first started beading. I can't say that I wasted money, because all beads get used sooner or later, but I sure spent a lot and I started out feeling discouraged. This video is going to help prevent that. I am hoping you will have a "how to organize your beads and tools" video. When I start a new project I dread it because I am so disorganized that I spend the whole weekend just trying to find the right beads.

Thanks my beading supplies are such a mess and i can't find anything. Feeling like selling it all. It's upsetting. I had brain surgery and I can't function when there is no order. It's been really super hard and confusing. So, i should seperate by item, not ccolor or size. I have alot of products so I appreciate your better beader episodes. Very informative. Thanks Allie. I will be saving for a kit. Disability limits my funds. I do love making jewelry.
