While running crafty errands around Brooklyn this afternoon, I saw these faux glass resin beads in my local bead shop, Brooklyn Bead Box, and I couldn’t resist. They look just like glass—even up close—but they’re so light that you could use even the largest beads for earrings. I’m not exactly sure what I’m going to do with them, but I’m definitely feeling the resin love!

Have you used resin beads? Have you tried making your own?
