Glass bead FAQs
What is a glass bead?
A glass bead is a small, glass shape with a hole through it that is suitable for threading onto a string. Glass beads can be small or large, clear or coloured and can feature patterns like spots of stripes, and also come in a range of shapes.
What are glass beads used for?
Glass beads are most often used in jewellery making, but can also be used to make hanging charms and as part of larger woven projects, like in macrame or when making a dreamcatcher.
Are crystal and glass beads the same?
Glass and crystal beads are different - crystal is harder and more sparkly, while glass is a more affordable but fragile option. They may look the same at a quick glance, but crystal tends to be the more refined option between the two.
