Cut a 30-inch length of stainless-steel beading wire. Put a bead stopper at the end of the wire, leaving a little bit of a tail. Choose a bead that you can fit the wire through twice and put that bead onto the end. 2. Watch the Funky Eye Glass Lanyard tutorial to follow along with Anna as she shares some tips and tricks with you to create your own unique eyeglass chain. 3. Pick up a crimp bead and 7 seed beads. Bring the wire through one side of the eyeglass holder. Take the end of the wire back through the crimp bead and the last bead in the pattern. Pull the seed beads into a loop and use pliers to squeeze the crimp bead shut. Repeat on the other side. The Funky Eyeglass Lanyard is a fun way to show off your style while keeping your glasses secure around your neck. You can find a great selection of Czech glass and supplies at PotomacBeads.

Too much scrolling to find your product or color even with the filters. The filters don’t allow you to see all of the color choices for an item at one glance for example. You spend too much time finding what you want. It gets frustrating!

It's obnoxious that the site tries to sell customers other things during the checkout process. The purchase button is brighter and more noticeable than the "No thanks" button, which probably tricks many naive customers and makes them not want to shop here again.
