Distress the Resin Bead from Natural Touch Resin Beads by filing the flat edge in order to round it off a bit. Use a small metal file and do your filing under water, as this will prevent the inhalation of any resin particulate.

When the edges are smooth and rounded, place the Resin bead at the center of your stringing media. I used C-Flex 49 Strand Beaded Wire from Caravan Beads in the .015 diameter size for this project.
