Seed Bead Sizing Explained

by

The sizing in sead beeds are all the approximate number of beads that will fit in an inch.

So if you lay 5 of the 5/0 beads in a row (hole side up), it'll be about an inch.

Keep in mind that this image isn't to scale, and bead sizing does vary from batch to batch and company to company.

I hope you find this a good rule of thumb.
