  • I could've gone to Disneyland Hong Kong lol but I decided to come here! This is a full exclusive tour of the Artkal beads headquarters in Shenzhen and I had the pleasure of meeting the many employees and manager at their HQ who taught me a lot about their warehouse and how they package and ship out their beads to fuse beaders around the world.
    This video is NOT sponsored and I know it's a lot of free promo for Artkal, but I actually really like this brand and after meeting people who work there, I like them even more! This experience was so unique and I'm glad I was able to visit them while I was in China! Make sure to use code "QDCRAFTS" for a discount on Artkal's beads!

    this is possibly the coolest video I've seen all year. I never thought I'd be able to see the deep innards of the source of one of my favorite hobbies! Thanks for going and filming it for us!!!! Doris and Fan were really nice, made the company seem friendly and not a faceless corporation and I'm glad to be making the switch to Artkal.
    ARTKAL:谢谢你们!!你们的beads让我真高兴。我也希望可以有一天去看你们。Artkal的beads的颜色这么多是为什么我宁可用你们的beads。Doris和fan好像真亲切

    @Elkikenyx Před 6 lety +26

    I recently made a purchase directly from Artkal and I actually e-mailed back and forth with Doris for a while, detailing a few things. It's nice to put a face on the person who'd been so patient with me through several e-mails and also to see where all the stuff I got is made and how everything works over there! What an amazing video

    That was amazing and that doesn't even put it into the right words. Thanks for sharing this with us all. I love seeing the soft beads. I don't know if it is just because I am in the United States or what but I had never heard of those before and now I want them. So thanks again and I can't wait to see what all you got from them in another video. Keep them coming!!!!!!

  • @davidquinones3307

    Just watching you go into that warehouse and seeing all those different kinds of sprites and beads got me so excited that I couldn't put it into words. I'd be beyond thrilled to be able to have a chance to do the same!
    I've been fuse beading for almost 5 years now, and I started using Perler, and then slowly branched out to Hama and Artkal. Without a doubt, Artkal has the superior color selection between them all, so lately, I've been using Artkal almost exclusively.

  • @mariesmith599
    @mariesmith599 Před 2 lety +1

    I just started doing these beads. I know Artkal has more colors than Perler. I can get the big ones but finding the minis are not as easy. Thank you for doing this. Its amazing!

    I was gonna choose between this or perler but this has such a large selection that overwhelms perler. I downloaded their bead coloring and went online to input the colors for each one because I knew the lighting would affect and some of the colors are so beautiful. Took a picture of each color and wrote what each are just in case I want to buy more!

I'm sure to check out those soft beads!! Thanks for the video QD :D

    Thank you for posting this video. Im a perler bead newbie from the US. I love the Artkal color palate options, did you see any innovations in peg boards? I purchased a perler super pegboard and it would be great to interlock the large square peg boards and the super peg board for large projects. Also, the soft beads look interesting...i liked the designs they came up with in the studio...Keep up the great designs, looking forward to what you are going to post next!

    • @QDCrafts
      @QDCrafts  Před 6 lety +1

      I don't think they've made a big pegboard yet, but it definitely would be nice to have bigger ones for those large projects!

    Are artkal beads cheaper than Hama beads (peeler beads) as I am thinking of switching if it is cheaper.

    • @QDCrafts
      @QDCrafts  Před 6 lety
