What to make with them
The flat-topped T profile makes these Tee Beads especially well-suited for peyote and brick stitch, where they sit side by side to create a tiled, almost architectural surface — and their shape also works beautifully as a picot accent in right-angle weave or as a stand-alone element in bridal and vintage-inspired stringing projects.
