I used a needle and thread to string them as real beads. If you use a really thick needle after you make them, you can semi-stretch a hole into them.

love this project. one question though, is it possible to put holes in them so i could use them as real beads?

these are so cute! :3

This is so genius! I love them. They look really cool, I've got to try!
