Awesome product! It's all I use now.

Consistent quality - all the holes were clean and neat. Best of all, your packaging and pricing! I hate having to buy multiple bags of sizes and colors to get an assortment . . . will definitely be a future customer.

Scrutinized the sample of beads you sent me.  WOW!  Quality is spot on, size, color, shape, slot & hole size were all perfect . . .

Just wanted to shoot you a note and let you know your beads are awesome . . . smaller slots let me keep my perdigon really slim . . . thanks again for offering a nice bead at an affordable price.
