I thought this was great! I love learning new things and I'm so happy with this new segment! Something I'd like to see in a future installment would be how to clean, care for, and protect our beads and gemstones and what we can do for preventing or cleaning tarnish. ❤❤❤
Thank you for the clarifications. I started making Jewelry during the pandemic. After working at a hospital during COVID, I found that jewelry making relaxed my mind and soul. Love Bead Box Bargains.
Absolutely love this video. Learning so much about beads and there make up. Very educational. I greatly appreciate them. Looking forward to seeing many more. Thanks so very much 😊😊
You have taught us so much. Not to mention, your bead subscription is what you got. I wou. Atbet at least 70% of your subscription holders started in jewelry making. If you do a poll, I am sure your subscription is the 1st subscription of most of your subs, ribers, and it just started our true passion due to the quality and curation of your azing boxes.
Thank You good session. I always wanted to know the basic. How to shape the beads and always wondered how do they accomplish a table cut. Thanks Again. BEAUTIFUL beads.
Bead Brief! Who knew? I believe an informed shopper is a happier shopper. This could be a significant 'Brief' for all beaders. Manufacturers are always trying to find new ways to create even more enticing beads. Thanks for such an informative video. Looking forward to similar videos in the future.
Lauren and Joy!! This was incredible! I love every single video and tutorial you release but to take us deeper into understanding what we are ordering and what we are using in our designs is a whole other level! Understanding the process as well for this Czech glass was so perfectly informative. In ahhh of you! ❤❤❤❤❤
Well, this was fantastic!!! I have often wondered about these things and it is nice just to have the knowledge as I make my designs. Anything else you do will be greatly appreciated.
Hi Ladies, very interesting and informative! Thank you 😊 I’m still pretty new at all this and appreciate all the educational tutorials and videos I can get 🌸🌼🌸
Love this concept! I would like to understand the different categories of gemstones. For instance, I was speaking to a vendor at a bead show and asking if he had porcelain jasper, and he said basically that name isn't really a thing, it's just marketing by individual sellers. I guess another example of this might be how "African turquoise" is actually a form of jasper.
It's true, no jasper or agate is going to be actually made of porcelain, since that's a type of clay. However, I have seen the term "porcelain" used to describe a jasper or an agate that is naturally white and glossy. Trade names can definitely be confusing, and that would be a great subject for a future Bead Brief!
I think I would like to see individual deep dives into these different coatings. Maybe show some shots with voiceovers about exactly how each of these things it’s made? Say the Picasso versus the ABCC? Spend a little time in the show on one or maybe two coatings or differences in the beats with possibly some Visuals from the actual creation process
I loved this, so informative and educational! Also, I have to ask; Are Joy and Lauren sisters? I've wondered for a. It bit seeing you together; you sound so similar and I'd love to know :)
@@laurahancock9163 great point! Czech beads aren’t actually drilled. The hole is molded into them, so they come out of the mold with the hole already in place. :)
Thank you. I will use that info in one of my upcoming presentations to the women’s business group that I belong to. I hold the chair for Artist-Jewelry Designer.
Those are CZ-6322, table-cut rectangle beads in transparent aqua. :) We currently have a couple left! Here's a link for you: beadboxbargains.com/10pc-12x8mm-czech-table-cut-glass-rectangle-beads-aqua/?showHidden=true&ctk=83580970-93a6-44bb-933e-9b7962d003a4
@@lauresa10 interesting, I haven’t heard that before! Here’s a quick example I harvested from the land of Google: The word "Swarovski" is pronounced as /swɑːˈrɒfski/. The first syllable "swa" sounds like "swah" with a silent "r", followed by "rof" that sounds like "rahf" with a silent "s". The last syllable "ski" is pronounced as "skee.” (I am typically great at spelling but infamously bad at pronouncing words, so I don’t trust my instincts here, haha!)
@@beadboxbargains Heck, and if you are in Austria it would be SVAR off ski---- but perhaps this is a joke on the whole Swarovski not selling to amateurs randomess. Some people swore-off-ski. hahaha.
@@cherylshiflett4384 great question! The term refers to beads made in the Czech Republic, also known as Czechia. Czech artisans have crafted glass beads for centuries, and still use many traditional techniques today!

Thanks for the feedback! A more in-depth exploration of finishes would be super fun-- adding that to the list of future ideas!
This has been such a great idea!!!
Very informative, I love to learn more and more about beads since I don't have much experience.

Does the term Czech refer to the country it originates from or simply the company name?

I think you mean Preciosa, not Precosia.
