DIY Craft: Wooden Beads

We are totally in love with wooden beads. The things we can make with them are just so many. Here are 2 craft ideas which you can consider. We have used 16mm in diameter wooden beads for both the crafts featured below.

Key Chain: If you love to add some colour to the beads, acrylic paint will be just what you need. You can paint the beads with various patterns, string them together with a suede string and you have your very own handmade keychain!

Glass/Cup Coaster: If you love the natural wood colour, you can skip painting them. Thread 5 rows of 5 beads. Glue them together with a hot glue gun and lightly burn the ends of the cords to prevent it from fraying. Your coaster is all ready for use.
