DESCRIPTION:
At last, a board that seed beaders have only dared to dream about! Our unique Seed Beaders Dream Board provides many useful features that will help you stay organized and be more productive as you work through your projects. One sturdy 15" x 13" board puts an organized system of hand tools, beads, and a good sized work surface at your disposal, making it a more suitable and safer work surface than having everything in disarray, like on a towel or other precarious beading surface.

This board will hold up to 14 different colors of seed beads in individual pockets shallow enough to allow you to scoop up your next bead using your needle without having to chase your beads all over the place or, worse, mix subtle colors together. No more little, loose piles of beads! We've also included a large, central work area that's sized for a standard 7-3/4” x 7-3/4” soft beading mat* (not included) which you may already have. Although you can use our board without a mat, if you do decide to use one, it can be easily lifted out when it becomes soiled or worn – or if you’d like to change to a different color to better suit your project – unlike those boards which have the mat permanently attached.

We have laser etched the letters and numbers above each pocket to make it easy to keep track of where you are in your design. We also have designed a tool pocket area, conveniently located just above the work area, where your needles, thread, beeswax, scissors, and other essentials will stay within easy reach.

Like the rest of our Beading Boards, this one is very sturdy, so you’ll lessen the chance of scattering all of your hard work if you bump the table or if you sneeze! Our edges are nicely rounded everywhere, too, including the inside bottoms of the pockets, which makes it easy to get seed beads out of the corners with your needle, fingers, or shovel. This board would be good to use in your lap, or on a tabletop, because it won’t bend or flex. It’s convenient to use wherever you are comfortable!

The material that we use in our boards, MDF, is made of residual woods from other projects, so no new trees are used. It is quite dimensionally stable, so less likely to deform than cheap plastic or even some grainy woods. We use a type that comes with a durable, white Melamine top coating which helps when laying out subtle colors.

For the price of one commercially available peyote bracelet kit, you can really upgrade your beading experience. I know you’ll love yours as much as I do mine!

ATTENTION:
We bought our bead mats from Artbeads.com. They were made by Beadalon, came in a package of 2, and were cream colored. The item code is SUP 0089. Our board's mat area is sized for the specific mats that we received, which, although advertised as being 7-3/4” square were actually closer to 8” x 8-1/16”, so we sized the area accordingly. No matter, really, as you can buy such mats from many other sources and simply cut them to size. :-)

By the way, if you need more pockets for your beads, or would like a way to sort or organize them, check out our Seed Beaders Pocket Board, #40007. Have a look:
