Hello! I'm new to making kandi and I'm not sure where would be a good place to buy elastic thread and pony beads for relatively cheap. Where do you guys go to get your materials? 5148ae306977f_hkheart.gif

Note: I'm in the US, so if you go to stores that are only in the UK, I won't be able to go there haha! 513b395250ec8_blush.gif

I know that you can find some larger bins of assorted beads and charms at Walmart. I got a 1500 count of rainbow transperent beads at Walmart for like $3

sometimes the dollar tree has beads and you can get string there too! I recommend walmart for beads tho bc they are more comfortable than the dollar trees and they are higher qualitycheer

i know this is two days old, but Hobby Lobby, Michaels and every other craft store has really high quality kandi beads of different kinds. usually they're about 1.50 per package, and the elastic string is 3. if you cant or dont want to go out cause of the pandemic, search up "[color] kandi beads" and "thin elastic string" on amazon and filter through "price: lowest to highest".
