August 17, 2007, Newsletter Issue #100: Top Drilled Pearls are More Versatile

Tip of the Week

As you've probably discovered by now, pearls for beading can be drilled in many different ways, and that includes coin pearls. Many teardrop coin pearls come top drilled, and this makes them even more versatile and handy to have in your bead box. Top drilling allows the tails of teardrop pearls to hang loose and show off their stuff, and it allows you to string other beads and spacers between the pearls for more diversity. It also ensures the top of the tear isn't as vulnerable to chipping or breaking. So, look for top drilled coin pearls for more flexible designs!
