I make aromatherapy bracelets in nightclubs, custom as I go, and I thought this would be a nice kit for my smaller purse. Unfortunately, about 1/3 of the large (8mm) lava stones are chipped badly, including the colored ones. Among the stone and glass beads, there are only the darkest colors shown. There are 2 kinds of silver spacers shown, one with clear and one with green - both came with green in my kit. The box is very sturdy and great for presentation. We tested both the clear and black stretchy cord and it is *very* good, no breaks with two people playing tug-of-war. Overall just the box and cords are useful to me. I later found this kit for $11-$13 with the colors exactly as shown, from other sellers.This kit is exactly what I wanted. With the carrying case it was very organized. I loved how the black lava stones came in different sizes and not all one size. I'm very pleased with this product and I definitely recommend it! ?????Love that everything I needed for making chakra bracelets was included. Made everything easy and having a separated space for each item was an added plus. Great variety. A couple lava beads were broken but quality was ok, otherwise.Love itMake your own jewelry has never been easier, carries essential oils well.Not a good purchase. The ‘stones’ do not feel like real stones. Feel cheap and fake. The colored lava rock is chipped. The most useful part is the elastic cording.my first package arrived loose in the package, but the company sent me a new one that arrived in one piece. I have loved using the kit to make jewelry. Would buy again.Smaller than expected. I guess I didn't pay attention to the measurements.3 stars because the product is great. but too many small ones not enough big lava beads was only able to make 6 bracelets and 3 bracelets using the tiny rocks and it doesnt look nice. have gems left over and a lot fo metal pieces left over too. not worth the priceUPDATE: bracelets snapped and they wasnt even tight. same size as my others i did the right knots as always missing a few cyrstal balls not that bothered but returning as the string isnt great.Really lovely product.The first one I received the tub was broken and beads were everywhere. I got in contact with the seller who sent me another one which was in perfect condition when it arrived.I made a bracelet that is worn daily and the elastic has not given up on me yet. I am very pleased with this.I was a little disappointed with the size of the beads to be honest and the holes only allow for the elastic to go through once which doesn't give strength to the bracelet and wouldn't last very long. The colours are really nice and also the spacers are lovely.Would have liked more colours of the lava beadsReally pleased with this set, the beads are beautiful, couldn’t wait to make bracelets, fast delivery will definitely use again
