The Bead Landing Nickel-free beads are available in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colours. They have a new display available at Michaels for you to peruse, and all of these beads are simply stunning. They're part of the brown label line, which means their regular price is $11.99, and they come in 7" strands.

The beads that I bought are a beautiful ivory white. I thought that these would be perfect for winter and holidays. The largest bead in the centre works perfectly as a focal point for either a bracelet or a necklace, and all of the surrounding beads come in pairs. Some of the beads are little crystals, some are beaded, and some remind me of faberge eggs. They're really stunning and very decorative, and one string can work well as a single bracelet or can be paired with a second string of a different colour -- which is what I chose to do.

Typically, beads come on a sort of fishing line which can be easily cut, but these were strung onto nylon-coated beading wire with crimp beads. Due to the fact that there was very little space between the beads and the crimp, I found it difficult to remove the beads from the string. This is my only complaint and has nothing to do with the quality of the beads but how they were packaged.

Although these are a little on the pricey side, I would highly recommend these beads for projects that require something bold and beautiful. Try to catch a coupon to save some money!
