Beginner at beading~

Hii Im new at beading and I was wondering where the best place to get supplies would be? ive read alot of people say online is cheaper than instore but what exactly would qualify as "expensive" for seed beads? etc.

Also, I was wondering when the best time to go onto making one of the more moderate level patterns would be? I wanted to make the cute little bird but I dont want to get ahead of myself and get overwhelmed. I'll probably start with the bracelet first. But was just curious.

Thanks!

when i started beading the firs thing i beaded was the little bird. I reccomend getting baeds at Micheals or a bead store. bead stores are kinda hard to find around me, but its worth it.

I work with a lot of youth and often buy beads in bulk - online tends to be my best "bulk" option. When looking for enough for personal use, I buy beads often at a local Micheal's, Hobby Lobby or a craft store unique to my area. Check the paper and any local forums or beading clubs - they can often point you to where to get the best deals or discounts. Have fun!
