About Calvert James Ornament Kits
My Story: For many years, I have had a love of beading and spent many hours happily making beaded ornaments from kits. After some time, I found that the designs were limited to a few simple inexpensive kits that were only available on a seasonal basis, while kits available year round were very intricate and/or expensive. I felt there should be a middle ground, but how does one find the customers and market? Finally, it dawned on me to offer my designs as kits on the internet!!! Like, duh!!!.... and here I am. I hope you like what you see and will let me know what you think. Customer Relations: At Calvert James, our highest priority is satisfied customers. You are important to us and you can expect us to go the extra mile for your business. Superior customer service is the hallmark of Calvert James. We are proud to serve you and work hard to earn your business.

Testimonials

Great designs! Good luck to you and your endeavors.”

Kasha, NJ

“Hi, Elzbeth - I think the balls are wonderful.  When will they be available for purchase? I'd like both of them. I would really like to thank you for creating them.  Your customer response has been wonderful....”

Arlene, NY - 2002

“I didn't see anything on your site that I wouldn't want to do. :)  All great stuff.  It would be my pleasure for you to list my testimony. It is true.  I have tried many kits and your instructions are simple and clear.   It is not always easy to do that without visual help.  You seem to have a knack for it. I give a lot of my ornaments as gifts so that I get double pleasure from them, but I am keeping your kit for my own Christmas special this year. It earned the top place and I have made many ornaments up this year. I just love the royal pure appearance of that pattern. Thanks.  Let that put a little extra sunshine on your Christmas morning this year, when you think of all the fun and happiness you have spread through your creations.  Have a Good One! “

“Dear Elzbeth, Thanks for the $3.00 shipping discount on my last ornament order.   Thanks , also, for the two extra storage containers for my previous purchases.  Your kits are beautiful.  About 30 years ago I bought three Victorian style ornament kits from a friend.  Since that time, I have never seen kits like them.  Last year I did a search on the Internet, which is where I found you. And I'm really happy to know that these style ornaments are still available. Thought maybe you would like to see the ornaments I made those many years ago.”

“My friend and I have completed the ornaments we ordered and have fallen in love with the process.  You made the instructions very easy and the patterns are beautiful. We wanted to try a couple out before we committed to anymore just to make sure we would enjoy this particular craft.  Our mind in now made up and we would like to order several more batches within the next month. Right now, we are looking at an order of at least 10 (more likely 15) ornaments.  Thanks for your time and effort.”

Marti and Melissa, AL 11/2004

“Yes, feel free to add our feedback to your site.  I know it always helps me make a decision about online purchases to read positive reviews. My friend and I are actually doings most of the work while we are at work. We work midnight shift and it can be very slow sometimes. Craft work is something that passes time easily, but can also be put aside quickly if needed. We both grew up in families where beaded ornaments were a traditional heirloom gift and have looked all over for good patterns.  Other websites we have ordered from have very poor quality materials and incredibly poorly written instructions.  So, again, I guess you can tell I am very excited to find your site. Please let me know when you have the Easter Eggs -- I’m very curious. I don’t think I’ve ever seen any. Thanks again for the wonderful work and your quick response.  It is a pleasure working with you.”
