Subject: Tired of Getting Burned by Online Shoppng?

Dear Beading Friends,

I just had another one of those frustrating online orders. It looked like a trusted brand, showed all the right pictures—but what showed up was clearly a cheap imitation. And honestly, it’s not the first time that’s happened.

It reminded me how hard it can be to know who you’re really buying from online.

That’s why I want to say something simple:
When you order from Beads Gone Wild, you’re ordering from someone who’s been in the bead world for over 35 years—and still cares deeply about every single kit that goes out the door.

We’ve been designing, teaching, and building kits since long before YouTube tutorials and online reviews. Back then it was handwritten instructions, local bead shows, and teaching one person at a time. In a lot of ways, not much has changed.

Every kit is still made right here in the USA, and I personally check everything—colors, bead counts, instructions—because I know what it’s like to be on the other end of an order.

If you ever have a question or run into something tricky—I’m here.
No bots. No scripts. Just a real beader who wants you to enjoy the process as much as the finished piece.

With gratitude,
Glenda

Geo Galaxy is a fun kit where you make several different pieces and arrange to your own delight. It is a layered peyote project.

Geo Galaxy Kit

A Few of Our Favorites (and Why Customers Love Them)

These are just a few of the many kits that beaders come back for again and again.
Every one includes clear instructions, carefully selected beads, and guaranteed quantities—so you can focus on creating, not troubleshooting.

Garden Path Necklace Kit – A delicate, intricate design with a peaceful color palette.
Firefly Earrings Kit – Quick, fun, and surprisingly dimensional.
Dogwood Bracelet Kit (True Beginner) – A confidence-building first project for new beaders.
Bali Waves Flat Netting Kit – A mesmerizing movement of color and texture..

Tip of the Week:
When comparing kits online, ask yourself:
– Does it come with needle and thread?
– Are the bead quantities guaranteed?
– Can you reach the shop owner if you get stuck?

If not… you may be rolling the dice.

Quality at Every Price Point

Not all of our kits are made with the most expensive beads—and that’s intentional.

I know some beaders are just starting out, or want to try a new stitch without investing a fortune. So we offer a range of kits—from budget-friendly projects to high-end designs with gold-filled findings and Brilliance® crystals.

But no matter the price point, you’ll never find “junk” beads in our kits.
Even our more affordable kits use the best of the moderately priced materials—carefully selected for durability, beauty, and ease of stitching.

If it’s in a Beads Gone Wild kit, it passed the test.
