Last week I asked the question, “Can You Get Quality Products For Less Money?

This week, I will begin to answer that question in depth with my detailed product reviews on the items I received from Beebeecraft.com.

I am now an affiliate for Beebeecraft and you can read more about the program and special offers on my new page, Business Resources.

The first thing I want to say about these little beauties, is that for the money, you can’t really go wrong with this purchase. The beads come in 10 colors, each on a separate 15 inch strand. Each strand holds between 150-200 beads. The sparkle factor is very good on this product. Keep reading for all the pros and cons.

My Opinions

PROS:

The opaque color runs all the way through the glass beads.

Nice even AB finish on each strand

The hole sizes are consistent.

The beads per strand are consistent in size to one another.

CONS:

The Strands are not all the same size, some colors are smaller than others.

Not perfectly faceted but nothing really noticeable.

I will let you know more later, after I have had the chance to work into a project.
