If you are NEW to Beading, we've put together an informative Beading tips page to get you started.

Printing Tips:
You may want to keep the patterns you print for a long time. We suggest you get a good quality paper or cardstock or photo paper to print these patterns on. You may also want to set your printer to print in its BEST mode as opposed to Normal or Economy. This will get you the BEST prints possible.

Storage Suggestion:
Slip your printed patterns into Clear Plastic Sleeves to protect them for years to come. The plastic sleeves also allow you to use erasable markers over the patterns. It makes life so much easier to keep track of where you are while answering the phone - etc....just erase the marker or replace the plastic sleeve and you can reuse the pattern over and over. The plastic sleeves usually come pre punched with 3 holes to fit 3 ring binders - a good storage place for your new Patterns. You can even get dividers and organize the binders - oh, maybe we are getting to organized now......
