Bargain Bead Box Monthly Subscription Unboxing August 2020

✿ Bargain Bead Box: bit.ly/2EGlCyj | Coupon: OPAL2
✿ Hey beautiful! It’s Gina from orchidandopal.com. It's my pleasure to bring you a close-up look at the Bargain Bead Box that I received for August 2020. Each month, you are guaranteed a value of $50, and at least 12-16 bead and finding selections. Shipping is free in the US, making this subscription only $17.95, shipped!
I am really pleased with the overall value of this sub. The Bargain Bead Box not only sends coordinating findings and glass beads, but also strands of gemstone beads! The themes vary each month, so you will build up a great collection of colors, shapes, and finishes, over time.

Hi Gina. There are a lot of people who do Bargain Bead Box unboxings now, but I have to say I still like yours the best. You describe everything so well and make lots of suggestions of possible for uses. Thank you for your videos. I love them all!!!

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

Thank you so much, Lea! 💜💜💜

[@ritablue4948]

I've had my box for 2 days, (I live in the same city as the company), but I always wait for your video to go through it. I have been impressed these last couple of months with the beads we have received.

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

I love that, Rita! Thank you for unboxing with me!! 💜💜💜

[@crystalr5090]

Love the agates in this box especially the Botswana agates...sooo pretty. The agate pendant is gorgeous. Thanks for the peek. 🤗

[@susanmahaffey2356]

Great bag!

[@marlene1557]

Ginaaaaa! I've been waiting for your presentation! Yippee 😊 First of all, I have to commend you on just how articulate your speech is...for every video you share 💓 Second, thank you for keeping such upbeat presentations for us. You make this subscription so exciting! It's the only 'box' I get for now so I've had an eagle eye out for you lol. I haven't received my package yet but because I trust your presentation, I decided to watch you first 😁 Woohoo! Thanks for sharing with us ❤️

[@nancysahnow3135]

I just started receiving this subscription and I love 💘 It

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

Thank you so much!! 💜💜💜 I really appreciate it!!

[@carriesunshine5742]

I have to say i love the stones in your bag. Your colors are a lot more vibrant than others ive seen and even mine. Lol im jealous. I do love the findings this month i think they hit it out of the park with them. Love the variety they gave us. As all thanks for another wonderful video.

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

💜💜💜

[@raec2275]

Recently started beading and looking at subscription boxes. This video convinced me I need to try this one!! Will order one for September. I'm excited

[@annas-g166]

This is the box that impressed me the most so I subscribed in time for the August box and as I live in the UK I'm waiting for this month's as it takes a couple of weeks. I was so impressed with the August box, I don't think you'll regret it.

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

Awesome, Rae! Have fun with it! 💜💜💜

[@helgama3048]

I love this month’s selection! And I love the way you present it, Gina! I have been following you for a long time and subscribed to the BBB because of how you inspire us. Have a great day and take care!

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

Thank you so much, Helga! I know you have been with me for the long haul, and I appreciate it! 💜💜💜

[@ladyjustice7]

I liked this month too. I've already made a set with a necklace, bracelet, and earrings using the agate. 😉

[@Passionbloom52]

Owwww , love the Botswana Agate Pendant / Finding & what looks like the Blue Lace Agate ones 😃

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

💜💜💜

[@suem.3651]

Abother gorgeous collection, aptly named! Gina, I love how you always tell us a few ideas about how to use different pieces! I get mental blocks, and this saves me. IDEA: Can you please make us a video featuring different types of components and findings and show different ways you’ve used them in pieces. It would be great to have text section dividers with a category of findings and a list of ideas for using, with links so we could download as cheat sheets. Kinda like in your “Which Subscription box is right for you?” video. Grateful!

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

Thank you, Sue! 💜💜💜

[@kimbain4368]

I love this month's collection, and I always wait to open mine along with you. I love the neutrals because then I can whatever other colors I want to from my stash. And I love agates, so was extra-thrilled this time around. Thanks for sharing!

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

Yay! Thanks, Kim! 💜💜💜

[@francinereider7427]

Hi Gina, There are a lot of great thing in this box. Love all the agate beads. Can't wait to see what you will come up with. Have a great day and be safe.

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

Thanks, Fran, you too! 💜💜💜

[@donnalee9469]

I think it would be awesome if you took those rounded square toggle portion of the clasps and brick stitch around three (or all four) sides and create earrings! I think the thread would tone down the gold. 🤗 And again, I so enjoy your channel and tutorials. Continued good wishes on you creative journey and success Gina

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

That would be very cool! Thanks for sharing, Donna! 💜💜💜

[@jenanielson]

Got mine yesterday..very great box. Cant wait to play with them all.

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

Awesome! Have fun!

[@laceybryant562]

Absolutely beautiful agate beads this month! I've had several visions of "Elegance"and created a necklace and bracket already.

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

Awesome to hear, Lacey! 💜💜💜

[@susanmahaffey2356]

Loved the whole bag. The findings are great!

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

[@natalierobbins6458]

I LOVE this collection. At first sight of the tissue paper, I thought it was kind of small, but when I opened it...OMG!!!! LOVE IT!!!!!

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

Yay! I am glad to hear it, Natalie! 💜💜💜

[@MichelleJM]

I actually opened up mine along with you this time! So fun!! I was all agreeing with you😄👍💗💗💗

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

Yay! I love that!! 💜💜💜

[@annas-g166]

I'm amazed at how fast I got my box this month it came today, last month I didn't get it until the 24th. I'm annoyed with myself as I gave in and watched your video only yesterday as I thought I'd got another week to wait at least. I'm a bit funny about gold colours, but I'm impressed with this box. I think it's beautiful.

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

💜💜💜 I'm glad you enjoyed it, Anna!

[@amandascott-burton9285]

Wow Gina, I think the great value in this collection is fabulous. Looking forward to seeing your creations. xox

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

Thanks so much! 💜💜💜

[@kimleon-guerrero9980]

Another great box. Thanks for sharing Gina. ✨🥰✨💫

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

You are so welcome, Kim! 💜💜💜

[@AprilDesignsSMD]

I always wait for your video before looking into my bag. I'm already having some ideas for this!

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

I love it! Enjoy, Stella! 💜💜💜

[@noellanmcdaniel9055]

Can't wait to play with these! Will half to wait till winter but love this box! Been so busy . Miss art. :(

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

I am going to need a painting update! :)

[@suem.3651]

Oooh, what if you sent Gina pics of a paintings, and she (or you) make pieces of jewelry based on them! You two could pair up and make collections based on your paintings...new business idea!

[@noellanmcdaniel9055]

Unfortunately,I haven't touched any of it lately. Allot of outdoor projects happening. It's a good thing. Will get back to it this winter I promise

[@brendaboles3875]

Anxious to see what you do with this box!!!

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

Thanks, Brenda! Hoping to share some pieces soon! 💜💜💜 :)

[@vickyrushton1783]

Not my favourite box but I’m hoping when I get it in person the colours will be more inspiring especially the gold which looks cheap rather than elegant...... perhaps silver would have been better?

[@carriesunshine5742]

If you pair it up with another color agate it will be amazing. I have notice the color sweeps a wide range with this months. Ginas is one of the more colorful ones ive seen this far

[@marlene1557]

I think this subscription is widening and inclusive to other cultures who may prefer the bright gold 😊 Can't wait to get mine 😍

[@carriesunshine5742]

@@marlene1557 the gold tones in mine were pretty. The chain is a different gold but all the findings are beautiful

[@marlene1557]

@@carriesunshine5742it's great that you're happy with it all 💓 I'm sure I'll be happy with mine....drumming my fingers...waiting 😁

[@carriesunshine5742]

@@marlene1557 im not necessarily happy lol i dont like the plain agate but the gold ton findings make up for the lack of color. Ginas box was one of the more colorful ones and 'turquoise street' you tuber had some of the least colorful. Mine is on the lower end of color but im gonna use purple and blue agate that i have to liven it up

[@michele3438]

Hello. I have been watching your channel for a long while. I am new to bead weaving. This bargain bead box subscription is my first subscription. I used your coupon code and I did not receive the 2 dollar off discount with my order. Aug 2020 is my first bead box from this company. I chose this subscription because of the value with the price for me as a beginner. I just wanted to let you know. Happy beading everyone. I am at a bit of a loss with what to do with some of the findings in this subscription. I’m sure it will all work out. Have a great day.

[@vickyrushton1783]

Michele * look for tutorials for beginners they are a great starting point...... most of us are still learning

[@marlene1557]

Michele * Hi Michele, I posted a few ideas to the bead box Facebook page. I have some more great ideas, but had to wait until I received an item that was broken. I will post more soon. Rose

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

Thanks so much, Michelle! I am so happy you are here, and hope you really enjoy your box! 💜💜💜

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

Oh yes - email support@beadboxbargains and they will totally make it up to you! 💜💜💜

[@JuMaRi615]

I thought they should have named the collection Summer Storm and added either very dark blue or purple

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

That sounds awesome!!

[@carriesunshine5742]

Lol i had actually told another you tuber yesterday on her video that either the purple or blue agate would be amazing with this box which i just so happen to have 😄

[@suem.3651]

I have blue striated agate and am about to use it with the one in here, too!

[@jazzybee5148]

I love the beads, especially the pebble beads. However, I felt that the gold did not match, and I am not a fan of bright gold. I think an antique gold would have been better.

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

Thanks for sharing, Beverly! 💜💜💜

[@sophuzzy]

This is the second month in a row that does nothing for me. I don't like gold - it's too garish for my taste. Your review may provide me with the inspiration to move through this .
