Tin Box Ep. 52: Tiny Beads, Big Legacy

Friday, May 22 · 9:00 am · 1 hr

In honor of AAPI Heritage Month, this episode of What's in My Tin Box tells the story of seed beads — from Bohemian glass-making traditions to the extraordinary precision of Japanese manufacturers like Miyuki and Toho. Every tiny bead you hold carries centuries of craftsmanship and cultural heritage. Jamie will feature heritage-inspired seed bead mixes in curated colorways — Sakura pinks, Jade Garden greens, Pacific blues, Golden Bamboo ambers, and deep Indigo — alongside Tahitian pearls and jade pieces that celebrate Pacific Islander artistry. This is a love letter to the people who make the small things perfect. Premium Ohana members receive 10% off all TINBOX-tagged products. Whether you're a seasoned seed beader or just discovering the magic of these tiny glass treasures, join us live on YouTube for an episode that honors the hands behind the art.
