The Package

Bargain Bead Box ships via USPS by the 10th of the month.  They ship in a padded envelope instead of a box in order to keep costs low.

~Bag #3 – Strands & Shapes: Bag #3 included over 230 crystal beads, plus glass spacers.  I think this was my favorite bag  of the bunch. I don’t make jewelry but these colors are gorgeous and I would love to see what people create from them.

    Oooooo! I make jewelry in the winter time when I’m less busy. I will definitely be looking into this one! Thanks for sharing!

    I buy from Bead Box Bargains as often as I can! They are good people to buy from and are very good in communicating with you too. I’d recommend them to anyone who makes jewelry!

    I love Bead Box Bargains and have been a monthly subscriber for several months now. I’ve never been disappointed, and always get way more than my money’s worth! It’s nice to get so many surprised in one package, and also to get items that I wouldn’t have personally picked out myself – gives me a challenge to create something with them. You can also purchase anytime from Bargain Bead Box, the same company, with very reasonable prices and cheap shipping!
