As someone who is considering getting into beading, this is the perfect video. Appreciate it, thank you!

[@snailsandfairydust]

Thank you! I’m so glad you found it helpful, it took me ages to understand bead sizes.

WOW!
Best video ever and I have seen videos about beading from when I started, way, way back, but watching videos for 12 years. GREAT JOB.

I still consider myself a newbie. (August 22). I am also a knitter. So yarn is plentiful. But I learned in collecting, for me, I find if I chose a few projects and get those beads first, I can do those projects, then move one to the next. I'm to the point now where I have a spreadsheet of all the colors I have acquired. Before I order for any upcoming projects, I check my inventory for the colors. It's working so far!
I truly love your designs. Thank you for your time and knowledge!

[@snailsandfairydust]

Ahh you are much more organised and have more self-control than me. I just see pretty beads and need them - lol. Thanks for watching!

what's the shade of green for the miyuki size 8 round example? I love the colour so much.

Hi 👋 😊 where do you get the clasp that hides the thread?

[@snailsandfairydust]

@@awakenbeauty.boutique The piece that hades the thread is called a thread guard or sometimes wire guard, and you should be able to find them at and beading store, craft store or Etsy or Amazon.

Thank you for this video, it was very helpful! I only have rounded beads and I've been learning flat bead work and looking into buying delicas and have been confused about the size I shoud get. I appreciate the euro coin for size comparison too! =^^=

[@snailsandfairydust]

Glad it was helpful! ☺️

The size 6 and 8 beads are better suited to crochet, since the larger holes will better accommodate the thicker threads and yarn that crochet projects use.

[@snailsandfairydust]

Oh that's a good idea! Unfortunately I am not very good at crochet - lol. Maybe one of these days.
