I was very satisfied with my order. And it was shipped to me in a very timely manner. I will be ordering from them in the near future. The bracelets are fun to make and are very cute. They are cute enough to give as gifts to your family and friends. Mary Deforge NH USA

Great idea for a gift: pretty glass beads, and enough to make a few bracelets.
The plastic box is at least an inch thick, implying that there are nice deep containers of beads inside. Nope. A big clear plastic insert holds very shallow containers of beads up high to make it seem that there are at least 4x as many.
I can't say it's a bad product, or a bad gift. Just that this is extremely expensive for basically a few glass beads. Barely enough to make what's in the picture. Maybe not enough to make what's in the picture.
