Description

The listing, Deep Blue Glass Seed Beads - 1.6 Ounces, Nice Amount, Equal Sized, See Photos! has ended.

1.6 ounces of some very nice seed beads. I used to bead many years ago, but don't any more so here they are.

You can see I put the dime inside the snack sized ziplock with the beads (4th photo), so you can get an idea of how many there are. I flattend out the bag and took a photo (5th photo), and you can see the beads fill up the whole bag. 6th photo the beads in the ziplock rolled rolled up. Lots of beads.

I would love any comments, don't know the size or much about seed beads anymore. I don't know how well these will do, what type of things people make with them, but I have tons more. 1st photo was taken with flash.

Auction ends Friday night, Dec 30th. I ALWAYS ship the very next day! Find all my fun auctions by typing in my name in the search box: SacramentoSue (all one word).

Thank you and happy bidding.

Edit, after the informative comment left by Sagecraft, I took a photo of 11 of them up against a ruler.
Thank you so much.

Questions & Comments

They are very pretty. I'm not sure what size either (probably 11/0 or 8/0), but they look like good quality, even sized beads. Will definitely be watching & waiting for more!

Hi Sagecraft!
After reading your very informative comment, I added 4 more pictures so you can see that you are correct, the beads are quite even in size. I went online to find out how to gauge the size, and 11/0 is 11 beads per inch. Of course I know it's not absolute accurate, but I did put 11 beads against a ruler. Thank you thank you I really appreciate your help and comment.

You're very welcome. I use a lot of seed beads, so I've gotten half decent at "eyeballing" beads. I try to only buy good quality beads for my jewelry, & these fit the bill. Very nice auction, & if my credits will come thru in time, I'll be bidding on these as well as any others you offer. Thank you.

Thank you so much for your input. This will help in future bead auctions and I will make sure I take photos and decribe how they look. I am pretty sure these beads are at least 20 years old, back from my days of beading. Being glass they don't wear, so that's good. Thanks again!

Wow, 20 years...I just auctioned off some that are probably 10 years old. You're very welcome, & please inform me (if you can) when you put new ones up for bid. I love your taste in beads.

Hi Sagecraft,
Love your comments! I will check what beads I have today and yes, I can definitely let you know when I start a new bead auction. Thanks again, have a good day!

Thanks so much, I also fanned you back!

Fan-ed and watching. My 11 yr old daughter is starting to make her own jewelry so these would be a nice addition for her. Looking forward to your future auctions.
