The Beaded Phoenix
Have you ever had a bead or thread question and gone crazy trying to find your bead reference book, only to discover that it's holding up the leg to your bead table? Well, maybe you haven't, but I have - and it drives me nuts! Since I've put this wonderful Bead and String Reference Chart Poster by the Beaded Phoenix in a place of honor in my bead room, I've been a little more sane. Now, to get that table leg fixed...

Bead and String Reference Poster

I don't know how I got along before I got this handy chart. Well, I do - I used a variety of reference book and Internet sites, but I never really had everything I needed in one handy place.

I know, I should know most of this information, but really, I don't. At least I don't when I'm in the middle of a project and need to convert ounces to grams or know what size that bugle really is. Nor am I always sure just what I need to know about a particular thread or cord and I certainly never remember the formula to figure the approximate number of beads I'll need to complete a project.

All of that and more is included on this chart and it's companion booklet. Information on wire, needles, threads, standard lengths of bugle beads, a bead costing formula, the formula for number of beads needed, just everything one one easy to read poster. The booklet contains details about the items listed on the chart and covers some additional information for achieving the best results in any project. This poster and booklet set is a wonderful tool for any beader. Priced at just $20.80, this is a bargain for all of this wonderful information.
