1) Peyote. So much fun to make ^-^ 2) Michaels. 3) Not very often. But for Christmas last year I got over 15,000 beads! So I don't think I'll have to worry about that for a while xP...although I DID run out of black beads....O-O 4)...I've never heard of that one .___. What does it look like? o.O 5)I've been making Kandi since April 2012. It was April 7th to be exact that I discovered Kandi tongue

1. I'm more of a singles kind of person, but when it absolutely comes to cuffs, I like X-Cuffs.

2. When it comes to "normal" beads, I shop at Hobby Lobby most of the time and then Michael's. Little fun shapes and charms will come from all sorts of places-

3. I don't get new beads very often. Even when it's summer I don't typically buy a ton often. I get things here and there when I need them and that's unpredictable--

4. I like the way the Herringbone stitch looks, but I haven't tried to make it yet to decide if I really like it or not.

5. I've been making kandi for 5 years-

1.multi or x-base, they are the easiest and fastest for me. 2. i get my beads from Michael's mostly, hobby lobby when michael's doesn't have what I need. 3.about bi-weekly laughing I use alot 4. I like how it looks haven't tried it myself, not sure how to make it. 5. I started beading when I was about 13 but wasnt in the rave culture and stopped after a bit, that was around 5 years ago. Now I'm raving all the time and picked it back up, so I've been making kandi for about a year now and I'm addicted love struck Nice to meet you PLURR

1. Definitely x-bases and ladders. 2. I buy from alot of places depending on the color/size/quantity/price. So like Wal-Mart, Hobby Lobby, Michaels and consumercrafts.com 3. I go get white black bead every other week at least. It's very irregular for any other color. 4. I think it's strange, and I don't really care for it. 5. Been making kandi for a little over a year c:

1. X-bases and peyotes are my favorites~ 2. I buy my beads from anywhere. Walmart is the closest to me, so Walmart mainly. But Hobby Lobby and Michael's has beads for cheap, so I buy from there when I have the chance. 3. I typically buy 1-2 packages of beads from Walmart every three or four weeks. Sometimes I have huge bead hauls, so it depends. 4. The herringbone isn't my first stitch to go to, but I do like it~ 5. I started making kandi May 29th of 2012 to be exact~ I took a small break during the summer when I went to Michigan from June to July, and I almost gave it up. But I kept going and now I'm hooked on it c:

I like the multi for cuffs, personally I get my beads at Walmart and Hobby Lobby, and sometimes random costume jewelry I find at the dollar store has good beads I can pull off and use for accents (: I buy new beads as often as twice a month to once every two or three months, depending on how many people want me to make them cuffs and other things. I have never tried the herringbone stitch, and quite frankly it looks terrifyingly hard D: and I've been making kandi for about two and a half years now(:

1. Multi 2. Hobby Lobby, Johann Fabrics, and Walmart 3. Only when I run out of a specific color or shape, not too often 4. I think it's pretty cool. You should check out my tree pattern one, I love it! 5. Since about August

1. I'd have to say I enjoy making flower cuffs and head bands.

2. Wal-Mart, Hobby Lobby, JoAnn, and other craft stores.

3. Whenever I need them. It's sort of like a spontaneous impulse buy situation.

4. I don't know how I feel about the herringbone stitch with pony beads. I have done the stitch with seed beads when I didn't want to loom and I think it looks really cool.

5. It will be a year someday in October close toward Halloween. In general, I have been making jewelry for as long as long as I have been doodling and that's been a while.
