Vivid color; vibrant craft – You want true blue beads for jewelry making and crafting, not rubbed-out blue-ish. These bright, well-painted beads will hold their color. No worries about colorful wrists (just don’t wear your beaded bracelet in the shower)! Smooth stringing – You’ll love these quality blue craft beads all the way from sliding them onto your string (or twine or elastic) to admiring your colorful creation. Use the pretty round beads alone or as spacer beads. The large, 1/8” hole (3mm) is perfect for little fingers. (And for adults who hate tiny holes!) Handmade charm – Chunky jewelry and farmhouse décor call for a natural look. So do vase “necklaces”, bead garlands, and bird toys. Slight size and color variations in these ½”/12mm blue beads give your artwork that natural beauty. (Need small beads with exact sizing?
