 Our kits are packaged in a handy but
strong plastic case that snaps shut securely. This case is just
the right size to slip into your bag if you want to take your
kit with you. We carefully label each package of beads or embellishments
in the kit so you know exactly what to use for each part of the
design.

Supplies you will need to
complete your bangle:
- Every beader uses supplies that
they feel comfortable with, so if you prefer different thread
then Nymo, please feel free to use that as a replacement. For
the best possible product, please use a color of thread that
compliments the main 11/0 and the Delica bead.
- Most threads prefer to be waxed.
I use Micro-crystal wax. Using wax lubricates the thread and
helps to eliminate shredding.
- Small, sharp scissors or cutters
or a Zapper
- A short beading needle, about
a size 10, for piercing the tubing when adding the clasp
- About 1.5 yards of 6lb. FireLine
for attaching the two ends of the clasp.
- 1 small pair of chain nose pliers
for pulling the needle through the tubing when adding the clasp
- Work surface of choice
- Lighting and magnification
