Bulk Beads - Made to Order - Ships in 3-4 Weeks
When you purchase bulk packs (50 or 100 beads), these larger quantities are ordered direct from our factory. Bulk beads are made to order as we do not stock large quantities of our beads. The factory requires approximately 3-4 weeks to produce and ship your order.
