Too cute!
I purchased these kits to use as prizes for our annual Paw Thaw dog show event. The kits were simple to assemble, and the beads are precious. I'll be tickled to see how folks respond to their prizes when they are awarded at this january show.

high-quality bracelet kit
My six-year-old and I had a great time making these charming bracelets. Best thing about the kit was the size...enough for two so each of us could participate but we didn't have a ton left over. All of the beads were glass, including the plain round white beads, which were nice and not cheap-looking at all. Spacers metal.

Holiday Glass Lampwork Bracelet Kit
All and all the beads are good quality, however the price is to high. you can purchase larger lots for less.

Winter Fun
This is a fun winter-themed bracelet. I think the beads are a good quality for the price. I made several for holiday gifts. My one concern is the stretch elastic--I'll admit I've never used it before, but it seems like it's not going to stay together. I tied a tight doube-overhand knot and even glued it, but I'm not confident it will stay together for very long. I may just string the beads on wire. I do think this is a cute set and I'm glad I bought it.

Best Bracelet Kit so Far
I have purchased a few kits from OTC, and this is my favorite. All the beads were useful, and the snowman bead is quite cute. (Though he has pink cheeks which are much more prominent than in the photo.) The top of the hat which appears to be light blue in the photo, is actually a turquoise color, but all the beads compliment one another.

Very cute, but...
Beads are very, very cute and make an adorable bracelet. All arrived mostly as described with two exceptions: one snowman "hat" had been broken in half during transit--but was easily glued back together.
However, the 8 "snowball spacers" are plastic whereas the rest of the beads are glass...and the plastic beads look *very* cheap, IMO. I didn't use them in my bracelets and was much happier with the look. OTC would be better off asking the distributor to include ceramic or glass snowball spacers instead.

Frustrating!
I read the reviews for the different bead kits and found that this one had no negative reviews. I ordered two sets and both sets were missing pieces. Out of a total of 4 bracelets, only one had the snowman head bead. In another kit, one of the mittens didn't have the hole all the way through. Also, 4 of the silver spacer beads were plugged up. I had to make due with what I had and needless to say, some of the bracelets are much smaller than I would have wanted. The one bracelet out of four looks super cute, but I would think twice about getting another kit.

Beautiful!
These beads are absolutely beautiful! I bought three kits.....made two bracelets and lots of earrings. The mittens are adorable....all the beads are very well made and expensive looking. These are by far my favorites.
