Usage & Crafting Tips
- Thread Selection: Use a fine, high-quality beading needle and strong, non-stretching nylon or silk thread that fits comfortably through the 0.8mm hole to prevent fraying and bead breakage.
- Color Matching: Due to potential slight color differences caused by varying LED monitor contrast settings, we recommend purchasing enough bulk beads from the same order for your entire project to ensure perfect color uniformity.
- Workspace Preparation: Pour the beads onto a flocked bead mat or a soft velvet tray during your crafting session to prevent these tiny 1.6mm seeds from bouncing or rolling off your table.
