Review on 🧡 Craft Medley GC457H Cup Sequins, 7mm, 16g, 8 Colors, Rouge by Multicraft Imports by Carol Miller

Beautiful color sequins but terrible packaging

Bought several sets of sequins from this brand in different colors. I plan to use them for shaker cards and paper craft decorations. First, they do the trick. They look beautiful and do the job I bought them for. That being said, as others have pointed out, the cost is a bit higher than what you get. It costs me around $1 per card when I use it for shakers, while the amount I'm happy to spend is closer to 0.30-0.50. There isn't much for value for money. Finally, I totally agree that packaging is a nightmare. There are 8 of these in the set and if you want several from the same square it is extremely difficult to get them. I like to store mine in mini plastic bags or in a bead storage tray. When I transfer each color it takes a little while but it's worth it. I cut each individual colored square, being careful not to open them. Then I put them in a small plastic container. I use powder to blend the top and around the glitter. Then I powder the inside of the container I'm transferring into, otherwise the static is pretty terrible and they'll stick to everything but what I want. After grinding them into a powder, they're easy to pour into my container of choice.
