    Welcome to Meghan Grace DIY! I have been sewing since I was 8 years old and have done lots of great things in the sewing world from making figure skating costumes to teaching high school fashion to freelance costume design to college fashion professor. In this video I am covering the basics of rhinestones or otherwise knows as flat back crystals. I explain the materials, the brands, the sizing and most importantly the cost. Swarovski is the best quality out there but also comes at the highest price. There are ways to find stones online that will be great for your project and you will pay 1 tenth of the price! Before we get started I think it is important to note that there are many different styles and techniques in the sewing world, so take with you what works and leave behind what doesn’t! Last Important Disclaimer - Amazon and other vendors change their prices often as you can see in the video when I purchased the Jollin stones they were 11.99 and the day I filmed they were 9.99. So the prices I quote were as of when I filmed which was May 14th, 2020 and may change by the time you view this video!

I really APPRECIATED this video because now I know the TYPES of CRYSTALS/GLASS rhinestones to USE, the ACTUAL SIZES of the CRYSTALS and GLASS, WAYS to DIFFERENTIATE the GOOD RHINESTONES from the BAD, the TOP TWO name BRANDS to USE and most importantly the PRICING of the RHINESTONES that would get me MORE BLING for MY BUCK. I've LEARNED so much NECESSARY INFORMATION from YOU and I am TOTALLY GRATEFUL.

SO THANK YOUUU omg, I know you said that crystal is better for ballroom, but Idk if I'm ready to spend 100$ on them, especially since I'm just starting out. The glass ones def are what I need for now. THANK YOU AGAIN!!
