Ever heard of candy? My cousin has a big zip lock completely filled with brightly colored beads. She and my brother would sit and make herself, him, or their friends bracelets. This can be time consuming, but she clearly enjoyed it.
My point is that making can be more social than shopping.
ps: That paper cutting slide show it great. I'm sure I'll imitate the style next time I need to create one.

- Radix 17y agoOh, I see your point now. I hadn't viewed that slide show yet and thought it was more like the paper cutting pitch. I think it could work, but more likely licensed and sold to a store like Claire's.
- YCW10 17y agoBeading is another HUGE hobby worth billions of dollars per year. Go to a Michael's craft store and you will see hundreds of square feet devoted to it. Part of the thought with the jewelry was that you could order the whole thing complete OR get components and assemble it yourself.
