Why Golden Beads Are a Craft Must-Have
Golden beads are versatile - round, faceted, or pear-shaped like golden moti beads, they work in jewelry, decor, and more. They’re affordable, starting at Rs 50 for a pack, and a little goes a long way. Searches for golden beads jumped 20% in India last year, per craft trends, thanks to their festive appeal.

Nothing says “chic” like handmade jewelry. String golden beads into necklaces, bracelets, or anklets for a timeless look. Mix in golden moti beads for that pearlescent glow - perfect for weddings or parties. I made a bracelet with Craftpriyaa’s 8mm golden beads last month, and it’s my go-to accessory now.
