The Bead Resource Directory

** Please excuse our mess for a few days as we are totally re-doing the resource directory before Pennsic! **

Each page in this directory is dedicated to one specific type of bead.

This directory is an ongoing project. Information will be added constantly.

  If you are the lucky owner of a "Bead Rescue Project Bead"  your information card will list the shape and decoration. You can look up those specific types in this directory to learn more about your bead.

Please also feel free to browse through other information to learn more
about other beads as well.

Information is broken down by both shape and decoration type.  Quite often decoration types would be found on more than one shape of bead.
