Your Online Bead Calculator Tool
How many beads do I need?
Use the handy BigBeadLittleBead online bead calculator to quickly determine how many beads you need for a given bead or jewellery making project – be it a bracelet, a choker, a princess necklace, a matinee necklace, an opera necklace, a rope or lariat necklace, even an intricate seed bead project.
To estimate how many beads you need either select an item from the pull down list of standard bracelet lengths and necklace lengths, or enter your own custom lengths and bead sizes. The bead calculator will quickly determine the number of individual beads you need for your beading project.
