Half-Pound Round Glass Beads, Assorted Colors, 8mm, Bulk Lot

I am very happy with this purchase. The beads are just as described. They are 8mm, round, glass beads in assorted styles and colors. I found very little in the way of size variations even though there were a wide variety of beads. I also didn't find any broken beads or ones with noticeable defects when I sorted through them.In the bag I received there was a good assortment of colors. I had blues, pinks, purples, some red, gray, brown and some other colors (see photo). There were pearly beads, opaque solid colors, frosted glass, crackle glass, and some with mottled or swirly designs. I think the seller's sample photos give a fairly good idea of the types of beads included. Most of the colors I got had at least 2 or 3 beads of the same type, which is helpful since I will be using these for earrings. I may not keep every single color, but I feel like I got a good deal even if I give some away considering how much you can pay for a little 6 inch strand of beads from the craft store.

I got a vary of colored beads which I liked. They were smaller than I thought but they're workable for my craft project.

The beads arrived very quickly with prime shipping, however, they aren't the best quality. Out of the handful I grabbed and tried to thread, half of them still had plastic covering the hole. I should have just purchased some pony beads because at least I know the quality of them. I wanted to give these a chance even with no reviews but I wish I had bought something else. I gave 2 stars because some of them are usable but now I have to go through 200 beads to sort the usable from non usable. I would not recommend buying if you plan to thread them.

The quantity and price.

as advertised. Love them

Loved these beads. Good quality. Perfect size. Lots of colors and finishes.

Pretty and few problems.

Nice colors, great for making earrings.
