- What can I make with top-drilled beads?
- Top-drilled beads hang from a single hole at the top, so they suit pendants, charms, dangling earrings and stitch markers. They are awkward on a strand where beads sit side by side.
- Will the turquoise paint wear off?
- The color comes from spray paint over clear glass, so it can chip or rub at contact points. Handle the beads gently and avoid harsh cleaners or long soaking.
- What size cord or wire fits the hole?
- The hole is about 1mm, so use thin wire, headpins or fine thread. Most standard leather cord and thicker string will not pass through.
- Are the beads glass or plastic?
- They are glass, described as transparent with glitter powder inside and a spray-painted turquoise finish.
- How big is each bead?
- Each bead is about 10mm long, 10.5mm wide and 6mm thick, roughly the size of a small pea.
