Focal Beads Wholesale

Increasingly popular craft supplies

In recent years, silicone focal beads have become an increasingly popular craft supply. These small, lightweight beads come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colors for a variety of crafts and DIY projects. From jewelry to home décor, these beads allow artisans to add pops of color, texture, and let their versatility and visual uniqueness spark your imagination and visual interest today.

What are silicone focal beads?

Silicone focal beads are craft beads made from flexible, durable silicone. Unlike glass craft beads that break easily, silicone beads are soft, squeezable, and nearly impossible to break. Their flexibility makes them easy to string on string, wire, or elastic to create jewelry. It also allows them to be sewn into fabric or heat bonded to many surfaces. The silicone material gives the beads a slightly rubbery texture and is smooth to the touch.

Our beads come in seemingly endless color options, from neutrals to bright colors. Popular shapes include circles, cubes, flat shapes, animals, flowers and more abstract shapes. The size is generally 2mm to 20mm. Many people use various sizes and shapes together in their projects to create visual interest through differences in proportion.

The use of beads in handicrafts

Jewelry making

These beads are very popular in jewelry making. Their flexibility and durability make them perfect for making stretch bracelets, necklaces, keychains, lanyards and more. The soft silicone bends comfortably around the wrist or neck without stinging. Brightly colored beads are great for making fun costume jewelry. Mixing the shapes and sizes of these beads can create a chic style. Even fine jewelry manufacturers may incorporate some complementary silicone beads into their designs.

Home Decoration

Our silicone focal beads are lightweight, flexible and are also ideal for certain home decor applications. These beads can be heat-glued or sewn into decorative throw pillows to add a pop of color and texture without adding significant weight. Likewise, beads can decorate tablecloths, curtains, garlands, wall hangings, and a variety of fabric crafts without sagging or tearing the delicate material. Their durability also allows them to withstand normal wear and tear once incorporated into finished home decor.

Children's crafts

For kids craft projects, our silicone focal beads offer many advantages over glass options when it comes to all forms of safety. If a piece of jewelry breaks, the silicone beads won't litter the floor with dangerously sharp edges. Even babies can chew on the silicone beads without choking hazards or toxins leaking into their mouths. The flexibility and strength of silicone allow even very young children to manipulate the beads and incorporate them into their artwork and designs. From tying projects to necklaces to sensory toys, our beads enable safe and developmentally appropriate crafts.
