Annie’s Simply Beads Kit-of-the-Month Club is a monthly jewelry subscription box where YOU make your own creation! For $19.99 per month, you’ll receive a beading kit with step-by-step instruction and all the beads and findings you need to complete a piece of jewelry you’ll love to wear!

This kit is called Ocean Treasures and features Aquamarine and Citrine nuggets!

The kit comes in a plastic tray with deep dishes to keep all your beads and findings separate. It comes with its own plastic cover so you can move it around, even if you are not done with your project yet. The beads and findings were nicely packaged in plastic bags inside the dishes in the tray.

The booklet has nice and clear pictures of the individual components in the kit. It also tells you right away what you will need to complete the project besides what’s provided in the kit.

There’s also a list of the techniques you’ll be using. You need to keep the Beading Guide you’ve received with the first shipment, but on the website, there’s a tutorial video for each kit for further explanations.

The instructions and assembly patterns were easy to follow along. You get both a picture and written instructions for each component.

Even if we have all the components nicely put on the tray, I prefer lining up the beads before threading them on the wire. Both rows before assembly.

The hardest part was to make sure that the silver rings were right side up as the hammered look was only on one side.

And done!

Final results! This necklace was quite easy to put together and the instruction for the knots was nicely explained. This is meant to wear long, so you don’t need a special closure for this project and you can adjust the length by cutting the rope.

Annie’s Simply Beads Kit-of-the-Month is perfect for beginners, or for someone more advanced who just wants to sit down with everything needed to make a fun design without having to think too much about it. Few techniques are needed to achieve great looks that can be reproduced with a different type of beads and findings. The tray is an added bonus as I was able to move everything from my beading room to the living room without any problem. This project was one of the easiest and it only took me about 30 minutes from setting up to the taking the pictures!
