Let's Get Started - Beading Supplies
Just a few of the tools and equipment you'll need if you want to start beading. This is geared towards making bead boxes, more so than other beaded things.
Most of these things you don't need to start your beading journey - you really only need scissors, needles and beading thread.
I think I said I use a size 12 needle most often, I had my numbers turned around, I use the size 10 and 11 most often (needle sizes are weird, the larger the number, the smaller the needle).
