Jewelry Making & Craft Tips
Because these beads are very small, choose thread, wire or beading needles that are compatible with the bead opening. Test a few beads before beginning a large project to make sure your selected stringing material passes through comfortably.
When creating repeating patterns, organize the beads by color before threading. A bead mat, shallow tray or divided organizer can help prevent small beads from rolling away during assembly.
