Why I always recommend a smaller bead spinner:

I have many bead spinners for making French Beaded flowers. There are standard size bead spinners with large bowls that are 4 inch(10 cm) x 4 inch (9 cm) and spinners with smaller bowls. Over the years, my  preference shifted to using a smaller bead spinner for French Beading. Here’s why:

Beads to Bowl ratio 

The more beads there are in the bowl, the easier it is to string beads on wire. Having a smaller bowl means that if we are running low on beads, we can get more of the beads onto the wire than if we are to use a bigger bowl.

Space saving

I like to bead all around the house and on-the-go. Having a smaller bead spinner saves precious space.

Budget friendly for Beginners

Buying a small bead spinner makes the art of French beading accessible to beginner French beaders.
