Question for Professional Crafters

Do you buy multi-packs of similar items, or do you tend to purchase items that are all the same in quantity? For example:

Are you more likely to purchase a pack of all the same size and color beads or a package with several beads of the same style and size in different colors?

Would you purchase a five pack of all one color and size ribbon or a pack of Autumn themed ribbon with five different styles?

Do you buy several yards of the same material or the multi-packs of fat quarters?

Re: Question for Professional Crafters

I like fat quarters, I don't usually buy a lot of fabric yardage because I love to work with a diverse amount of colours and styles and I don't always need lots of fabric. I suppose that this would be different with someone that makes clothes for example.
I have tried to buy small fat quarter bundles here on Etsy.

I would do both types of listing - often when buying in bulk I buy just the same type of item, but if I"m trying something new, I might buy a variety

Re: Question for Professional Crafters

I usually buy several packs of all the same size and color beads. Initially I purchased packages with several beads of the same style, but different sizes and colors and that did not work for me at all - I still have those and do not quite know what to do with them.

I am even more tempted when there is a discount if I buy more than one pack (or quantity discount).
