    These beads look like tiny donuts! They’re round on the outside and flat in the middle. You can use them between bigger beads to make your jewelry look neat and even.
  3. SuperDuo Beads
    These beads are small and oval-shaped, but here’s the cool part—they have two holes! That makes them fit really well together, and they’re awesome for making patterns.

    Just like the name says, these are round like marbles. They come in many sizes and colors. You can use them in almost any project, from bracelets to necklaces.
  5. Oval Beads
    Oval beads look like little eggs. You can use them to make your jewelry look fancy and stylish.
  6. Teardrop Beads
    These beads look like raindrops—round on one end and pointy on the other. They’re great for making dangling earrings or necklaces.

    Cube beads look like tiny boxes. If you want your jewelry to look modern and cool, cube beads are a great choice!
