24 October 2024  |  Jenny

After visiting your stand at the knitting and stitching show and purchasing a few products to make an angle I could not wait to order some more beads, wings and ‘skirts’ to make some more. Your prompt service was brilliant and the components are really as good as they look on the website. Many thanks

Kit is very nice have given it a three star rating only because I am teaching myself beading and find the beaded sleeves that go on the star hard to stitch on which in fairness to you is my lack of experience very pleased with my purchases though thank you

So many shiny things.
30 May 2024  |  Donna

I started out beading using Beadalon Wildfire. It was thicker and kept splitting. Then I started using FireLine 6lb thread and have since used spools and spools. Would recommend - no splitting and the thread is thinner (still just as strong) which means I can pass through my delica beads more times without the beads breaking.
I would also like to recommend the Southampton Bead Shop. The shop is a beader's dream (so shiny!) and the staff (Johnny and Vicki) are really so accommodating and helpful. Thanks!
