Wooden Beads DP Craft Koraliki 10 mm - natural wooden craft beads, 10mm diameter

DP Craft Koraliki wooden beads are natural, round craft beads with a 10 mm diameter designed for a wide range of hobby and DIY applications. Made from untreated wood, these beads are lightweight and offer a smooth, paintable surface that accepts stains, paints and varnishes. Each bead features a pre-drilled central hole suitable for threading with cords, strings, wire or elastic, making them practical for jewellery making, macramé, keychains and home décor accents.

Advantages

Natural wooden construction gives these beads a warm, organic look while remaining durable for everyday craft use. The consistent 10 mm size provides uniformity across projects, and the smooth surface allows for easy painting, stamping or burning techniques. Their light weight reduces strain on delicate cord materials and the cleanly drilled holes support straightforward stringing and assembly.

How to use

Select an appropriate cord, string or wire that fits through the pre-drilled hole and slide beads onto the chosen thread. For painted or stained finishes, sand lightly if needed, apply primer or stain according to the manufacturer's instructions and allow to dry fully before handling. Combine with other beads, knots or findings to create finished jewellery, macramé designs, keychains or decorative garlands. For projects involving children, supervise use and ensure small parts are handled safely.

Usage recommendations

For best results when painting, apply a thin primer or base coat to improve colour uniformity; seal painted beads with a clear varnish to protect the finish. If using with macramé, test the bead hole size with your cord to ensure a smooth slide and avoid friction that could fray fibres.
