  1. What Are Seed Beads • The term ‘Seed Beads’ is actually a generic term that can be used to define any small bead. Normally they tend to be round in shape and are mostly commonly used for creative projects like off-loom bead weaving or making small but beautiful pieces of jewelry. • A lot of home craft people make things like simple friendship bracelets, earrings and christmas decorations but they also use them as spacers between other beads in larger projects they might be doing. 

  2. How Seed Beeds Are Made • The wound method and the drawn method, are two techniques used to produce seed beads. The more traditional technique is the wound method that bites into your time and is shunned by modern bead producing companies.  • The drawn method is the preferred choice to make seed beads.

  3. Different Color And Finishes • Colour Lined: The process in which the inside of the beads is coated with colour, is not very long lasting and the colour might change with time. • Transparent: these beads are made of glass which makes them see through. • Matte: the texture applied is on the most minute level. This gives the matte finish look. • Opaque : the bead is covered with a colour that stops you from being able to see through it. • Luster : the bead is made in imitation of a pearl. The effect is given to the surface of the seed beads. • Translucent : light cannot pass properly through the beads, but you can see some light through it.

  4. Different Types of Seed Beads  There are a number of different types of seed beads including plastic cylinder beads, charlotte cut beads, and bugle beads. These beads can be used in different ways to create artistic patterns or just to pass the time. The choice is yours to make. Have fun!
