Bottle is not included, you can clean up a soda plastic bottle and use it as the picture shows.

I just unscrewed the two parts of the bead maker apart and screwed the top part onto a dried out water bottle. It fit fine but I prefer to use it by holding the bead maker in my hand. I had good success with the 1/2 inch width paper using up to 4 layers.

A regular sized bottled water worked perfectly for us (Dasani or Aquafina). My daughter loves her bead maker.

You need to call kidcraft. The number is in the instruction paper. They will mail one out to you right away.

Whenever I have had an issue I have called the manufacturer...they are always willing to help and provide ...sometimes even free of charge. That would be my first place to start. Otherwise go to a craft store ...you can pick it up in bulk. But again my first choice would be to contact the manufacturer.

In my opinion- It is very difficult for kids to pump the cylinder. It builds up alot of resistance and becomes difficult. An adult will need to constantly pump it for him/her. We bought this last year and no longer use it.

I would contact factor Nutrition Labs at 1-800-515-2143. Our bottle says 4 and older but there is an adult version available as well, which may be more suitable for a teen.

Call the number on the bottle. They made refine ments in the directions for me. All I know it has to recylce for an hour to work.

Hi. I bought it for my 10-year-old grandson, but he lives in another state. I'll call him and ask him about it.I vaguely remember that he had a hard time solving it. I'll let you know when I find out. My only vague memory is that there is a bead that moves through a maze to the end. But when you get the bead there I don't know how it opens.

If you like Iceland Pure as much as I do, I would go ahead and buy another bottle. Then, use the new pump to finish the open bottle and then use it for the next bottle. I know, now, that I'm going to hang on to the pump I now have just in case something like this might happen sometime. Hope this helps. Otherwise, I wonder if you might go to a kitchen store and see what kind of pump they might have. I'm thinking perhaps a salad dressing dispenser might work. Also, you might take a look at shampoo bottles - some come with pumps. Hope something works out!

I am having the same problem with getting the cleaning supplies. I had thought to contact the maker and see if it would be possible to get on their auto delivery. I'm not sure if they will do that since the purchase was from Amazon and not direct from the company. If you would like when I find out I will leave a post in case you are interested in doing the same. I am really glad to see you share my feelings on the performance of this wonderful little machine. I can't say enough good about it. Reba

The bead itself is the Baltic Amber. It isn't a bead that's coated in Baltic amber. The amber will do what it's supposed to for as long as you wear it or your child wears it. You way worry about it eventually breaking, but you wont have to worry about beads going everywhere since their knotted between each one. You can easily re-string the beads when/if this happens. My son wore his for a year 24/7 before it finally broke. So, I hope that answers your question. :)

I would think you could phone the makers. I can say my granddaughter has fully enjoyed this entertaining and versatile item!

We had an older Pompeii balsamic vinegar bottle that was a great fit. The bottle was just the right size as was the opening. I think the larger oil bottles have bigger necks also. It sounds like some people were able to cut off some of the rubber rings in order to fit it in the the smaller oil bottles? I hope you can make it work because we really like it.

I will have to ask my granddaughter, she has the necklace we made. Be i've not heard her say anything about it coming apart. It was so cool how this works we really had fun making the paper beads.

I have the bottle cutter kit and it has a candle, sandpaper, and some graphite powder as well as a book of ideas as to how to use your bottle cutter. The Original Bottle Cutter is the green metal cutter inside the kit. I LOVE this cutter and use it all the time. I have made beautiful candle chimneys and holders as well as vases, funnels, and wind chimes. Print one of your favorite pictures onto some vellum paper, wrap it around your candle holder and tape it. Put a votive candle inside and light it....Beautiful!!! I make most of my stuff from old wine bottles. My husband and I and all our friends love wine so I end up with all the bottles (all colors). The tall blue bottles, I think they're 'Blue Nun', make gorgeous candle holders. Have your friends and family save all their bottles for you. The ideas will come to you. Hope this helps.

I purchased my beads wholesale. You can go to EBay or check other websites. Sometimes I purchase beads from Michaels or Joanne's but I use them only if I need the materials immediately.
