Finding Beads With Large Enough Holes For The Hemp Twine To Fit Through:<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Hemp macrame knotting has found a resurgence with the new hippies <\/i>and even with<\/span> some of us old ones<\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hemp twine comes in all kinds of colors and can be<\/span> beaded or<\/span> knotted in a variety of<\/span> patterns for making very cool bracelets, necklaces, belts and key chains.<\/span><\/p>\n

With hemp jewelry making, you need to find beads that have large enough holes to accommodate the thickness of the hemp cording. Even the<\/span> finer twines are still fairly thick.<\/span><\/p>\n

The problem gets worse with hemp jewelry patterns that require you to pass the cord through the bead holes more than once… which is common.<\/span><\/p>\n

Since it’s tough to find suitable hemp jewelry beads at the best of times, I would suggest that you<\/span> consider making them yourself using polymer clay. <\/span><\/p>\n

The fantastic thing about polymer clay is that you can make your beads any size you want, with any size hole you want. And… polymer clay can me made to resemble everything from glass to ceramic to wood and even metal.
