1kg BAG

This is the finer glass and is very popular. You need less of this than heavier grades to achieve the required weight as is finer. I have tried it in a stocking and it didn't appear to come through it. Great for the limbs, and maybe use double thickness stocking for inside the body just to be on the safe side. But for me it is best just for the limbs and then use the coarser one I sell for inside the head and body. Less likely to escape from stocking.

This auction is for fine round glass beads for weighting your reborn babies limbs!! Also suitable for putting into stocking to weight lower belly and head also!

Clear colour means they won't be seen through the vinyl of the limbs and being round, they aren't too gritty feeling through the vinyl!

It is recommended that you 1/2 - 3/4 fill limbs with these and then tightly pack in polyfibre fill for last or so, to hold them in the limb. However, how much you fill the limbs depends on how much weight you want to achieve. With this particular one, you probably only need to 1/2 fill each limb. Because of the fineness of this particular material, you would need to seal the ends of the limbs with the likes of a silicone sealer. Some artists cut a cardboard circle the size of the top of the limbs, then glue that on the hole. Lots of artists do this sealing of tops of limbs always.

I also have garnet granules (not suitable for limbs as dark red colour which can be seen through the vinyl, but good for inside body & head) and milled quartz (good for limbs) for this purpose, listed.

Actual glass beads are the next size finer than shown in the pic here!.

Not to be used in any toy which will be given to a child under 3yrs old.
