The website was easy to use and I found what I needed right away. The only thing I would like to see is other sizes offered in those products because I would've loved to have made the earrings a little bit bigger.

I saw your ad for this kit on Facebook and I jumped on it, since I know how quickly kits can sell out!

My package contents came in damaged. I had to glue several pieces before putting tubes in case. Love the idea of it. Better packaging will be helpful. The trays had some tabs that broke off during shipping. The tape used to hold the trays together left a sticky film on the acrylic. It's not often that this happens with Potomac Beads. I will still shop their stuff.
Very fast and reasonable price for kit and shipping.
