I absolutely love shopping with Potomac Beads for jewelry making supplies and tutorials and kits, etc. It's the first place I go when I'm looking for a specific tool or bead or whatever. I love the jewelry kits, too! My family was so impressed with my first effort that I am encouraged to try different methods now, confident that you will have all the supplies and support I need. Thank you for a superior shopping experience.
