I've been a beadmaker since 2001. My business started out as a hobby and within 3 years it grew into my full time job. I get to make beads! I wake up every morning and think to myself "I get to make beads today!" I consider myself very lucky and nothing would make me happier then to make beads for you.

Refund & Return Policy :
No Refunds. But you can exchange at any time. If you need to ship something back for an exchange, you will need to cover the shipping costs.
Frequently Asked Questions:
What type of glass do you work with? Moretti. 104 COE
Are your beads annealed? Yes.
What does annealed mean? Annealing a bead is when all the stress is taken out of the glass by letting it sit at a certain temperature for a period of time and then bringing the temperature down at a controlled rate. By doing this the bead becomes more durable. But you have to remember, it is glass, there is a breaking point. Dropping glass on concrete will probably break it. (although my smaller beads mostly bounce with no damage...that's not always the case)
