    Hi, I would advise finding a local bead shop and trying out different sizes and seeing what works for you. I wouldn’t buy a starter set as there will be a lot you won’t use. Just buy small amounts to try out to start with. I use many different places online also, mainly Cooksongold Beads Direct and The Curious Gem.
