Petite Glass Beads Mill Hill 42039

Create the most delicate and sophisticated accents in your craft projects with the finest glass beads, Petite Glass Beads 15/0, from the leading Mill Hill brand. Thanks to their miniature, jewelry-like size (only 1.5 mm in diameter), these beads are perfect for intricate detailing and add a subtle, noble glow to your work without adding unnecessary weight to the fabric.

Why you should choose Mill Hill Petite Glass Beads 15/0:

• Jewelry-like miniature: The 15/0 size (1.5 mm) makes these beads absolutely indispensable for micro-embroidery and rendering the smallest details (such as frost patterns, tiny stars, or flower pollen). They look incredibly neat and do not overpower even the most delicate design.
• Perfect alternative to knots: Petite format beads are very often used in designs (such as Mirabilia, Lavender & Lace) as an ideal, dimensional substitute for French knots or quarter stitches on faces and exposed skin areas.

Technical Specifications:

• Manufacturer: Mill Hill
• Bead type: Small round (Petite Glass Beads / Size 15°)
• Size: 15/0 (diameter ≈ 1.5 mm)
• Weight in package: 1.6 g (standard branded blister)

💡 Tip from Crazy Cross Stitch: Size Petite 15/0 beads are your secret tool for creating flawless miniatures. Since these beads have a very small inner hole, we strongly recommend working with them using special extra-fine beading needles (size 12 or 15), as well as thin monofilament or specialized beading thread. This will allow the needle to easily pass through the bead even twice, ensuring its perfectly even and secure attachment to the fabric.
