OK, I need to do a cake this weekend for a friend and she wants "beads". I was searching the sites, is the lower number beaders bigger beads or smaller beads?? I'm confused......
So is a 3mm a bigger bead then a 10mm, or the other way around

The larger the number, the bigger the bead

Thank you for the clarification!!

Hi
More info for you
mm = millimetre
a millimetre is 1/1000 of a meter
a meter is approx 39 inches
3 mm = .118 inches; 5mm = .196 inches
for a simple conversion chart, check:

hope this helps
