Pack of 25 Shan wooden milled beads, each with a 15 mm diameter. These turned and milled beads are made from natural wood and feature a rounded, smooth profile with pre-drilled through-holes for easy stringing. The untreated surface accepts paint, stain or varnish, making the beads versatile for a wide range of craft and hobby projects including jewelry, macramé and home décor accents.
Advantages
The milled shape provides consistent size and smooth edges that reduce friction on cords and threads. Natural wood construction keeps the beads lightweight while allowing finishing options such as painting, staining or sealing. Pre-drilled holes simplify assembly and reduce preparation time for both handcraft and small-scale production. The uniform diameter supports balanced results in necklaces, garlands and toys.
Suitable for
- Handmade jewelry: necklaces, bracelets and earrings
- Macramé projects and string art
- DIY home décor: garlands, curtain ties and ornaments

How to use
Select appropriate cord, thread or wire for the hole diameter and intended load. For jewelry or macramé, slide beads onto the cord and secure with knots, crimps or end caps as required. When painting or staining, sand lightly with fine-grit sandpaper to remove rough spots, apply primer if needed, then finish with paint or varnish and allow to dry fully before assembling. For toy components, ensure finishes are non-toxic and that beads are secured to meet safety requirements.
Usage recommendations
For best results, test paint or stain on a single bead before treating the entire set. Use a cord or thread slightly thinner than the hole diameter to allow easy movement and knotting. When used in items for children, choose non-toxic finishes and verify that assembled pieces meet applicable safety standards.
