How to use
Choose a suitable cord, thread or wire for your project and pass it through the pre-drilled hole in each bead. For painted or stained finishes, lightly sand the surface if needed, then apply primer or paint in thin, even coats and allow to dry thoroughly between layers. For macramé and garlands, position beads along the cord and secure with knots or glue as required. Use wood glue or craft adhesive to attach beads to flat surfaces in mixed-media décor projects.
Usage recommendations
For best results when painting, use a water-based primer or gesso to improve paint adhesion and reduce wood absorbency. When stringing on thin cords, check hole diameter compatibility first; for heavier use in macramé or outdoor décor, seal the finished beads with a clear varnish to improve durability and resistance to moisture.
