My parents are archeologists, and they've been on digs where people have found beads from the literal Stone age that looked better and more professional than those in the Crayola kits, and they probably have longer durability than those beads too.

Now, whenever she throws something, she screeches “in da trash!” And then dances if what she threw makes it into her trash can and she screams if it doesn’t. And yes, she has her own trash can. It’s my way of training her to clean up her toys in order to get treats. No, it’s not an actual trash can but she and I call it that. I luv my salty birb

The really frustrating thing about the first one, is that for that price you could buy most of a good quality pasta roller, which would let you make way cooler clay bead creations. It's clear they saw pasta roller crafts and went 'we need to both simplify AND overcomplicate this for a kit'

[@christinasanderford5849]

I was just thinking that!

[@nicolekennedy6841]

Perfectly stated! That's EXACTLY what happened here lol. Edit: And you really can buy a decent pasta roller for pretty cheap. I paid $20 (on sale) like 4 years ago for a pasta roller to use for polymer clay, and I still use it! This kit made me sad.

[@nikkafrog]

With the bead maker forms, they tend work better when go faster. And you go back and forth more than 4 times, not sure why crayola said amount. Also going slow was not compressing the clay which was causing the holes. Possibly the type of clay contributed as well. Polymer clay works the best with those. Allows you to get a smooth uniform bead.

[@deborahdoyle9523]

I have used similar bead molds, I don't think you used enough clay in the rollers. I saw there is a measuring cup on each half of the roller, maybe you have to fill each one and put both pieces together inside the bead roller. Luv watching you and your craft kit reviews
