Bead Boards

[Bea]

Does anyone on here use a bead board to make their jewellery? I am tempted to get one but I am really wondering whether my good old bead mat is just as good!!!
Thanks

Hi Bea.

I always use a bead board, and to be honest I don't know how I ever managed without one! I think it's all those handy little pockets for the extra beads, that I love the most!

I use a beadboard which has 3 channels for necklaces/bracelets. Makes measuring easy and helps to keep designs balanced. The flocked surface is great - as is a bead mat - and the little pockets are very useful.

I think I got mine from The Little Beader, who was the cheapest supplier at the time.
