The Dowsabel Bracelet Making Kit offers an expansive variety of materials including soft polymer clay Heishi beads, acrylic letter beads, and polypropylene pony beads. These components feature a standard 6mm diameter with a 2mm bore hole, which has been tested for consistency to ensure a low failure rate for blocked holes. The kit is organized into a sturdy storage case with secure latches, designed to prevent beads from migrating between compartments even if stored vertically.
Specifications indicate the set includes 0.8mm elastic string. To help ensure the longevity of your bracelets, it is a practical step to pre-stretch the cord before threading the beads, as this helps prevent the jewelry from sagging after the first few wears. Securing the final knot with a "Surgeon's Knot" and a tiny drop of clear nail polish can help prevent the slick cord from coming undone. The polymer clay beads meet safety standards for child use and are built for comfortable, lightweight wear.
The kit provides a curated color palette and unique smile-face molds, making it easy to create visually cohesive designs. While the materials are durable for daily indoor use, the polymer clay beads may lose some of their finish if they are frequently exposed to swimming pool water or harsh chemicals. This set is particularly well-suited for building fine motor skills and encouraging creative organization in a home setting.
If you prefer working with natural-looking materials, the Xylise Stone Chip Kit provides a more organic aesthetic for your jewelry projects.
