Gather Materials

- You can use different colors if you would like

2. String

  • Approximately 3 Ft.

- Fishing line (6/8 Lb.) works best for 3D projects as it is very strong and thin enough to pass through the beads multiple times

4. Nail polish

  • If you don't have any nail polish you can use a permanent marker as well
  • Red works best but any color will do
