Designer Favorites: Raven's Journey Beads for Jewelry Making

With so many beads out there, it's hard to see them all! The Beadaholique website has thousands to choose from, and some of the prettiest, in this designer's opinion, can get lost in the mix.

One brand of beads that I love using is Raven's Journey. These beautiful beads are all from the Czech Republic and come in a wonderful array of colors, designs, and finishes. The owner of Raven's Journey, Lenka, travels back and forth to the Czech Republic from her home in the Pacific Northwest. She works with wonderful artisans who craft these magnificent beads!

Before we look at the individual beads, we can find inspiration in some past projects using Raven's Journey beads. We might not have all the supplies for each of these projects, as some beads sell out quickly or are limited editions, but you can substitute in your favorite beads!

A really fun video to watch is How to Make a Stretch Bracelet Featuring Raven's Journey Czech Glass Beads. Stretch bracelets are so popular right now and would make great holiday gifts!
