This is a thinner bead and would be great for making earrings and bracelets. Each bead is about 1/2 inch long and about 1/8 wide at the widest point. Each pack contains 70 beads of assorted colors, including some striped and some solids usually with flecking. We think they’re great for earrings and bracelets, but maybe you can come up with other ideas, too!
