Fire Mountain Gems and Beads

Design online! The Virtual BeadBoard is our web-based beading project designer.

We've made thousands of our products available for your use in this versatile web tool. Everything's here: beads, components, findings, etc.

Plan on making several copies of one of your best pieces? The Virtual BeadBoard beading project designer can compute the number of strands or packages of each item you will need. You can use it to calculate the cost at the same time and add items directly to your shopping cart.

You'll love the convenient bead trays for both your
current project and your favorite components.

The Virtual BeadBoard beading project designer is not only easy and fun to use, we think you'll find it extremely useful, too. When working up a design, have you ever thought "wouldn't it be great if I could quickly and easily replace all of this bead with that bead?" With the Virtual BeadBoard beading project designer, you can do just that with our Global Replace Feature. Beads can be dragged, dropped, rotated, deleted, and you can get product details with one mouse click.
