Review on 🧡 Beadsmith ColorEyes: Assorted Sizes Color Identified Beading Needles for Easy Crafting by Hannah Curi

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Respectable. Better than most.

These are good needles but they don't last long for me, but they do last longer than the finest beading needles I've tried. They are the right size for a variety of bead projects, have just the right sharpness and I love the color coding of the size. The problem is that all beading needles have to be very thin and long than sewing needles with very small eyelets to get through the beads, but they also have to be strong enough to work with and get through firewire and other very strong cord. Holes in hard materials that are often not perfectly drilled. Most of the time I find slim and long enough - strong enough is usually a problem. Fine beading needles tend to Warping and failing quickly - these particular needles are good enough to complete a project or three before they break, which, as mentioned, is actually better than most of the competition. . Additionally, the small eyes of all fine beading needles make them difficult to thread and use even with fine Firewire or other thin cord. Unfortunately, finding a good, durable needle threader that works with fine beading needles is even more difficult than finding a good, durable fine beading needle. I think it's hard to make a strong beading needle. However, there is no excuse for inferior needle threaders lol. I would be happy, If anyone could make some excellent quality needle threaders for fine bearing needles (and any needle for that matter) - tip, tip Beadsmith! It would also be nice if you could make stronger needles.

Pros
  • Hand Sewing Needles
Cons
  • Unfashionable

easier to see the eye of the needle to thread the tiny thing, at least for me.
