HOW IT IS MADE:
The cookie bead forms by compressing a smooth round bead. Because each “cookie” is pressed individually, every bead design will be unique. You can expect edges, crinkles, and small tool marks, which add character and charm to each piece. These natural variations make every compressed bead truly one-of-a-kind.
