    First I’d like to address one other review because I hesitated to buy this based on that one. Most beads are useful, if there’s a small bead inside of another bead, you can literally poke them right out. I was actually worried most wouldn’t be usable, I’ve found 3 with little beads inside of them and they poked right out.Not sure why people gave this bulk bead buy poor ratings. They’re great, they’re beads, they’re assorted in color and sizes as well as shapes. Just to be sure I bought a second set, again, they’re fantastic. Each set has a few other beads the other doesn’t. The first I got a few paddle beads, a lot were broken but that was negligible in the grand scheme of things. The second I received some nicely sized coin beads. Both sets are well worth it. No clue where someone would buy a better buy. I calculated the approximate cost per bead (I bought the beads for about $13 each set) and the cost per bead is about $.003 per bead. Anyone knocking the rating based on a few beads not being “usable” must not have or know how to gather this information. Now if the company wants to send me more beads for another positive review, I will gladly accept because there is no doubt in my mind that this is the best bulk buy of plastic beads.

    Estoy encantada con el producto!!! Es todo lo que esperaba y en realidad son muchisimas cuentas. Trae mucha variedad ya que trae de diferentes colores y tamaños e incluye cuentas de animales y hasta de árboles de navidad y calabazas (me imagino que cada paquete es diferente), estoy encantada ❤️ Definitivamente lo volvería a pedir.

    Bought this and super regret it! Before I was even halfway through the bag I found all this broken beads and as well as mishapen round beads that had half of it missing! I even found just a random length of blue plastic inside! It looked like it was part of a plastic frame!

    Reviewed in Canada on July 30, 2021
    This is my second time buying this “mystery box” of beads. And I love it!!!

    At first glance when removing the big plastic bag of beads out of the box, it looks like it’s mostly pony beads. But hang on …. It’s not all pony beads. I spent hours sorting the box I received months ago and the one I received the week …and oh my goodness! I discovered both boxes I ordered had so much variety!

    To compare … when I ordered in spring of 2021 it was a lot of pony beads (probably 75%) and tri-beads (5%). The remaining 20% of beads was so so worth the price of this box! I ended up with tons of variety! Large unique shaped glass beads, multi faceted beads, animals, jumbo beads, letter beads, average sized beads, and teeny tiny beads too.

    My recent box (summer 2021) had surprisingly less pony beads. Unlike the last box that had 75%, this box had maybe only 50% pony beads. And no tri-beads this time (thank goodness because those are my least favourite). But the coolest thing about the recent box was it came with about a dozen big pumpkin beads! Perfect timing with Halloween 3 months away.

    Now for the “mystery box” part… my 6 year old daughter and I dumped the beads out of the plastic bag and into the box they came in and began sorting. She picked out all the huge beads! It was truly like opening a treasure chest. So much variety and very different than the box I ordered a few months ago!

    Now listen… if you make jewelry and/or you love beads, you need to buy this box of beads! When you get it, sort it. Trust me it’s so worth it to sort. Time consuming yes, but worth it. After sorting all the beads I began making necklaces with the amazing beads.

    Pony beads aside, the value of the other beads, in my opinion, was well over $100. And I’m saying this as someone who knows bead prices. If you had to buy all the beads included in this box you’d spend well over $100, and that’s how I felt for both boxes. Not to mention good luck finding such a big variety in one store.

    How to sort:
    Start by pulling out all the huge stones and unique large beads. Then remove all pony beads and put them in a ziplock. (If you really don’t need the pony beads, donate them to a school or gift them to kids who will love making bracelets for their friends with them.). So after removing the pony beads (and tri-beads too if there is any) you’ll be left with the rest which is what will amaze you. I bought 5 plastic divided containers at the dollar store to put all the beads in. Each container had 36 compartments. (See photos I posted with the sorted beads and some necklaces I made so far.)

    For string, I purchased both 0.8mm and 1mm stretchy string (in white and in back) off Amazon and it worked perfectly for all the necklaces I made. I also purchased a 1.2mm rainbow stretchy string off Amazon which my daughter loves to use to make pony bead necklaces.

    I have already made about 20 bracelets (with 22-25 beads on each), plus a dozen long necklaces (100-120 beads on each), 8 medium necklaces (60-80 beads on each) and I’m still left with a tonne of beads!!!!! So I’ve used well over 2000 beads and I’m still left with thousands more.

    If you’ve read my review this far, thank you. Now go buy those beads! I will be buying another box in a few months!! Can’t wait!!
