Shan wooden beads in black, 10 mm diameter, packed at 25 g, are lightweight natural beads designed for a variety of craft and jewelry projects. Each bead has a smooth surface suitable for painting, varnishing or leaving natural. The uniform round shape and central drilled hole make these beads easy to thread for bracelets, necklaces, keychains, macramé accents and decorative elements around the home.
Advantages
These 10 mm wooden beads provide consistent size and shape, allowing for even spacing and a professional look in finished pieces. Their smooth finish accepts paint and varnish evenly and can be sanded if needed for finer detailing. Being natural wood, they are light in weight, reducing strain on strings and cords while retaining a tactile wooden feel. The black finish offers an understated base that pairs well with other materials such as metal findings, colored thread or leather.

How to use
Select a suitable cord, thread, wire or elastic based on your project and pass it through the pre-drilled holes to string the beads. For painted or varnished finishes, apply primer or base coat if a uniform color is required; allow coatings to dry fully before handling. If sanding is necessary, use fine-grit sandpaper and remove dust before finishing. Combine with metal findings, spacers or other beads to achieve the desired design and secure ends with knots, crimps or clasps as appropriate.
Usage recommendations
For durable results on wearable items, test any paint, varnish or adhesive on a single bead first. Use a bead needle or thin awl for easier threading when working with multiple beads and finer cords. Store beads in a dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the finish.
