Five stars, all the way! I fell in love with these beaded beads some years ago but wasn't able to purchase the tute & ended up not making any. Am going to remedy the situation now. Nice work, Barb!

Fantastic video! Barb was clearly at home with her subject, easy to understand and personal. Have to go now to order supplies to make several!

Very innovative caged bead design!
Love that materials are unusual, resulting in great design, yet such an easier to create pendant.
Barb's instructions, both visual & spoken, were well paced, along with being clear.
Thank you so much! Another great Beaducation video!
