Trifox iridescent half-round pearls 5 mm, 12 colors (crafting embellishments) are flat-backed decorative elements designed for adding subtle shine and opalescent highlights to a wide range of creative projects. Each pearl has a domed upper surface with an iridescent finish and a flat rear that allows secure attachment by gluing or sewing. The 5 mm diameter and assortment of 12 colors make this set suitable for precise detailing where small, uniform accents are required.
Advantages
These half-round pearls provide consistent size and shape for uniform decoration across fabrics, accessories, nails or paper crafts. The iridescent coating creates shifting color effects under different light, enhancing visual depth without bulky weight. Their flat back simplifies adhesion to diverse surfaces, and the small 5 mm profile permits detailed, close-pattern application. The set of 12 colors offers variety while maintaining a coordinated look for multi-color designs.

How to use
Clean and dry the surface before application. For glue attachment, apply a small amount of suitable craft or jewelry adhesive to the flat back of each pearl, position it on the target surface and press gently until set. For sewing, use fine thread and a small stitch through the edge of the flat back or along the seam area where the pearl will sit. Allow glued items to cure according to the adhesive manufacturer's instructions to ensure secure fixation.
Usage recommendations
Choose adhesives formulated for the target substrate (fabric, plastic, glass or nails) to avoid discoloration or weak bonds. When applying to delicate fabrics, test on a scrap piece first and consider reinforcing with a few small stitches. For nail art, seal with a top coat appropriate for embedded decorations to extend wear.
