This Beadsmith portable bead tray creates the perfect workspace on the go for your beading convenience.

If you prefer to work in the living room when your favorite show is on, this holder goes with you. Take your projects to class and home again without removing them from the tray. Spend a gorgeous afternoon working on this tray outside so you can make the most of the natural light. You can even set up shop at an art fair and use it to demonstrate or display your creations. Not only does this durable beading station go with you, it’s designed to pair with The Beadsmith Sticky Mat or soft, padded Bead Mat(sold separately) to make sure those little seed beads stay in place. Pick out the beads you need easily without static electricity giving you a dozen of them or you having to chase one squirrely bead around the room. Adding the sticky mat makes this portable workstation even more ideal for craft exhibitions as it holds your pieces in perfect display orientation. You’ll have a chat-worthy, engaging centerpiece that will have visitors flocking to your booth.

This jewelry tray isn’t just for beaders and jewelers—it works equally well for other crafters who want to move away from their kitchen table or other surface and take their supplies along with them. It’s ideal for artists because it keeps pencils, pastels, and paintbrushes from rolling onto the floor. The best use is for keeping all of your important crafting tools in place while you create masterpiece bracelets, necklaces, and anything else your inventive mind can dream up. It’s your partner in crafting brilliance.

I think this is the perfect size for my work area. Only thing I would change is I added some silicone strips on the back to keep it from sliding around.

I couldn't take my beadwork with me anywhere because the beads would bounce and roll all over the place... this stops that. Plus, I love the little divider sections at the top to keep bead colors separate... I would be happier if my cat hadn't thrown up a hairball on it.

I needed a larger beading try so I thought I would try this. The tray is a good size, perfect for projects involving several different beads. The only problem I found was that it was very slippery which I didn’t care for as beads were going everywhere and mixing with each other. I went and purchased some inexpensive cloth and glued it on which seemed to work. But next time, I will try to find a tray with some kind of foam or material that is not slippery.

I don't know how I ever did craft projects without this thing. As someone who tends to store projects in one part of the house and work on them in others, this tray has quickly become essential. It's much sturdier than the flocked trays, but still lightweight and easy to carry, even loaded up. I lined mine with a bead mat and keep my beading loom on it, along with my pincushion, scissors, current thread and beads, findings, etc. It's the perfect size - not too small, but not so big that it's cumbersome to move around. There's plenty of room for my project materials, and it's easy to work on my loom without even removing it from the tray. Stashing my project out of the way clear across the house is now a breeze. I definitely recommend using this with a bead mat to keep beads from rolling around (not sure why it isn't sold with one - that would be nice). I like this tray so much that I purchased a second one to hold materials for another project.

I returned this purchase. It's just expensive cardboard.

I love these trays for jewelry making. The 11”x14” fit perfectly in the tray. The combination of the tray and mat allows you to move your workspace out of the way. You can sit it on your lap and work. The size is great for jewelry making and the tray is sturdy. I have 7 in all and stck them on a shelf over my desk. I can easily pull out a tray with a different project on it and then put it back in the stack to change to a different tray with snother project or clear my desk. I can sit in the couch and work while watching tv. I can put a variety if materials on the tray to compare materials to plan out a project. So versatile, and a lot of that is due to the size. And the sides of the tray keeps beads from rolling off.

Exactly as described and such a perfect accompaniment for my crafting. I wish there was one that was half the size, but this works well! It holds the beads, and other items, and is very functional!

Got these for two of our daughters who are little beaders and they absolutely love them. Only issue is one has a bit of a wave in the mat part but she seems ok with it. Wish I'd known they came in different colors and could choose them- we got one grey and one yellow so it worked out. Now Mama needs one- much nicer to work on and save your beadweaving without your floppy mat messing things up!

I have in so many ways been happy I bought this Bead Mat Tray. It even comes with a bead cloth to keep items from rolling around. I use it so much. I want a couple of more now. Very nice simple and very useful. I bought a plastic one (for traveling or even just to use at home) offered here on Amazon, but can not seem to get tit opened without everything scattering all over and on to the floor. This is the best one I have found for use at home that does not cost a arm and leg.. Have fun Beading...
