Use this handy bead chart to find out how many duo beads you can expect to receive in each 25 gram bag! Now when you buy Matubo Superduos, Miniduos, Gemduos and Paisleyduos, you'll know the quantity you can expect to get. These counts are, of course, approximate, but they should be pretty darn close!

Two-hole beads have been around for a while and come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. Their unique structure and versatility make them especially ideal for multiple forms of beadwork. Add to this the beautiful array of colors and lovely textures and you can totally understand how the enthusiasm surrounding two-hole beads is practically a frenzy. Beading with two-hole beads is certainly no fleeting trend. I received this two days after ordering. As soon as it came in the door, a friend in Colorado wanted a necklace for his lady. I sent him a picture of the stone and he immediately approved. I added in some dark amethyst beads and some pale amethyst crystals, with a bit of silver chain and sent it to him. The reaction was "Wow!!! She LOVES it". It's a beautiful example of amethyst in a natural state.

"After placing my big order I see that another online bead supplier is featuring TierraCast and I panic thinking they are so huge in this industry A.B. Direct couldn't have possibly been able to give me the best price, but A.B. Direct is so much nicer! Well, I checked, and for every single item your price was much lower and even if I was to take advantage of this other popular distributor's bulk pricing I still would have paid more and would have had to purchase a minimum of 200 pieces. Wow!"

"I love ordering through Auntie's Beads Direct! I live in a town where the closest thing to a bead store (Hobby Lobby) is 30 minutes away and the quality and service aren't up to par. With your website I can get most everything I need in a very short period of time at basically wholesale prices. Thank you for being my go-to bead supplier!"
