- ABS Plastic:
- Pros:
- Lightweight: Won’t weigh down your creations.
- More durable than CCB plastic: Less likely to break or chip, offering a better balance between affordability and durability.
- Affordable: Especially considering the quantity you get.
- Cons:
- Not as durable as some materials like glass or acrylic beads.
- May not have the same shine or luster as higher quality beads.
- Not heat resistant: Can melt if exposed to high temperatures (like from an iron).
- Pros:
Size and Quantity:
- Size: 5mm – This is a good size for creating statement pieces in jewelry or for making bold details in embroidery projects. It’s larger than the previous ABS bead options you saw (3mm and 4mm) but not too big for comfortable wear in jewelry.
- Hole: 2mm – The larger hole size allows for thicker threads or multiple strands of thinner thread to pass through.
- Quantity: 1100 Pieces (100 Grams) – This is a good starter amount for smaller projects or for testing out the beads before committing to a larger quantity. You can always buy more if needed.
Color:
- White Color: Offers versatility and can be easily incorporated into many project themes. You can create classic and elegant designs, use them as a base for other colored beads, or paint them for customized creations.
Uses:
- Jewelry Making: Create chunky bracelets, statement necklaces, or keychains. You can combine them with other beads and findings for more intricate designs.
- Embroidery: Use them for bold details, outlining shapes, or creating textured elements in embroidery work.
- Crafts: Make decorative objects, keychains, or other creative projects where a larger bead size with a clean white color is desired.
