The YMSDZHL 6000-piece kit is a high-volume assembly focused on the popular polymer Heishi bead style. These beads are made from a PVC-based polymer clay that meets ASTM D-4236 non-toxic standards, making them a safe choice for household crafting. With a standard 6mm diameter and 2mm bore hole, the beads are optimized for use with the included 0.8mm elastic string, providing a lightweight and comfortable feel for friendship bracelets.
Specifications indicate that the pigment saturation in the beads is stable against UV exposure, helping your designs stay vibrant over time. To help prevent the elastic cord from slipping at the knot, technical tips suggest using a "Surgeon's Knot" and reinforcing it with a tiny drop of clear adhesive or nail polish. The kit is organized into a 24-compartment polypropylene case with secure latches, which is designed for vertical storage to help save space on a craft shelf.
The set includes various zinc alloy charms that add a decorative touch to the clay beads. While these charms are durable, they are best kept away from moisture like sweat or water to help maintain their gold-colored finish. Occasionally, the thin disc beads may stick together slightly due to the manufacturing process, but they can be easily separated during threading. This kit provides an extensive range of colors, making it an excellent foundation for creating a large volume of personalized jewelry.
If your projects require more natural materials, the Mchruie Magnetic Stone Bead Kit offers a different textural experience with reconstructed minerals.
