Frequently asked questions
BEAD SIZES
please note that all my beads are handmade one at a time, with no molds, or tools to create identical beads. Sizes listed are approximate, and can vary by 1mm.... if you need the exact size measurements of a particular set of beads, please message me first.... If you need "pairs" for earrings, message me or leave a note on your order when you check out stating you need earring pairs. If you do not let me know you need matching pairs, the beads you receive may vary slightly.
Shipping Notice...
SHIPPING SCHEDULE: made to order items can take up to 2 weeks to be made, plus shipping time. I will convo you with an approximate ship out date. I do my very best to try to get orders out in a timely manner (less than two weeks).
Wholesale availability
I am a one woman ETSY shop. This means, I do everything from designing, producing, cleaning and, inspecting my beads, taking photos, answering convos, updating my etsy site, shipping... etc. Therefore, I cannot offer my beads at wholesale prices at this point. This being said, I do occasionally run sales, and have a clearance section in my shop (click on the “DESTASH-SALE” section)
HOLE SIZES
My standard size bead has a hole size of 1/16" (1.5-2mm). However I can also make beads with a 3/32" (3-3.5mm) hole at no additional cost.
I also make big hole beads (4.5 - 5mm) to fit Pandora, Troll, etc. or the larger big hole beads with a 6mm hole (to fit Brighton & similar)
I make dread lock beads with holes that can be from 10mm to 11mm.
I can also do a ring with an 18mm hole.
Please convo me with any questions regarding hole size.
What size are the beads in most photos
For most of my bead pairs (rondelle shape) the photos you see here on etsy are of the medium size. If you order the small or large size, there could be a variance in the pattern on the bead, the color intensity, or the brightness of the bead. If you need a picture of the actual beads you will be receiving, please let me know.
Can you make pairs for earrings?
YES! If you contact me either through a separate message, or just leave a note with your order when you check out... say something like, “I need these for earrings”.... I am more than happy to make your beads as close in color, size and shape for a matching pair. This said, they will never be identical. These beads are handmade one at a time, no two will ever be alike.
