    I love to watch you make jewelry. I am a fan 100% and just adore you so I hope I am not overstepping and you don't mind me saying that I cringe when I see your "jewelry making Tools" Lol There is so many affordable brands out there that can assist you and make life easier & more comfortable, especially since you have medical issues that make jewelry making more challenging. I would love to see you upgrade your tools and give yourself that gift. You certainly deserve it. ❤️ BTW, I have started to learn to use my jump ring ring opener/closer because of you, which simplified things for me at times. I hope you accept this caring advice in the intention that it is given, with care and compassion.

    This is such a gorgeous set Lauren! I live in the Phoenix area and really appreciate all of the desert colors!!! I have a question (I hope you see this to answer it). How many additional sets outside of the subscription box are needed to complete this set? I have ordered additional because I loved the beads in this box so much, but I'm not sure I have enough to do something like this set, which I'd love to do!!! Bargain Bead Box is my ultimate favorite bead box subscription and I absolutely adore Bead Box Bargains! Such beautiful beads and findings and great prices!!! Thank you!

I made this set with only one Desert Sands box! :) The only things I added to the box were the basic findings (lobster claw clasps, crimps, jump rings, clamshell tips, and wire) mentioned at the start of the video. All the beads used in making this set can be found in one July Desert Sands collection. I hope that helps!

    Very clever! I expect nothing less from you, but this exceptionally clever! I love convertible jewelry - everything about it, fewer pieces (doesn’t mean we need to buy fewer beads) and more opportunities for individualizing our designs. After your video, I’m going to have to take a much closer look at some of the beads. Maybe I haven’t properly appreciated earth stones. I am a shiny crystal kind of ‘girly’ and I seriously need to reevaluate the beads I affectionately call (and sort as light dirt, bluish dirt and dark kinda purple dirt) all of the non shiny beads ‘dirt hues’. Today I saw the play between the little bit turquoise (shiny!) and the ‘big dirt rectangles’. I throughly enjoyed another one of your videos. Thank you very much. And thank you for great boxes you put together each month. I also love the option of buying more in your store as well. You and your great staff put together a fantastic full service product that allows as much flexibility as this design. Thank you very much again for everything you do! (Now I have to go re-label a bunch of ‘dirt colored’ boxes…)
