Beads are used in decorations and are made from materials such as stones and bones. To fit them into the required place drilling has to be done to ensure tight fitting. Stone settings are of different types. Bead setting is one of these types. Other types are burnish, bezel, channel and prong setting. Unique beaded sets enhance creativity, to be an independent thinker and to think critically rather than always doing what others do.

Beading is of enormous importance as it promotes development of many different skills to both the old and the young. Beads are of different sizes therefore holding these different sizes helps in exercising different muscles. It also promotes visual discrimination in that depending on the type of image outlook desired, the best suiting bead is selected. Visual discrimination is promoted when the color of the bead that best suits a desired image is selected.

Excellent coordination between the eye and the hand is enhanced during the procedure since the eye and the hands must move in a coordinated manner to form an enthralling pattern. Cognitive skills such as good planning and application of mathematical skills are acquired too during the procedure. One has to plan on how to move from initial step towards the end in a chronological order. The correct number of beads required to complete a certain pattern for a certain length is determined. This is mathematics.

Socializing is very common during beading. This occurs through exchange of items by the parties during the act. Some patterns made at beading are fitted into the dresses. This shows that the dressing skills are promoted. On completing a project, one gains confidence in him or herself. The self-esteem is promoted too. It also can be used as a form of entertainment.

The stone and a metal plate are some of materials required at the process. Tools used in the process are setting bur, round bur, bench vise, flex shaft, jet set, drill bits, ball bur and bead tool. The tools are usually very sharp because at times are pushed through very hard surfaces and therefore when handling them one ought to be very careful.

To commence the process, arrange the stones into the desired pattern. The pattern to perform and the diameter of the stone should guide when deciding the spacing. The precision should be factor not to forget when the seats are being cut. The sizes of holes should neither be too small nor too large.

Always check the fitting as you progress with the process. It is good to maintain tight fitting since it is the most appropriate as the loose fitting could be the major source of problems as one proceeds. Determine the correct depth of seat that is most appropriate. Onglette graver is used to cut the line whose depth is equal to the depth of seat. By making cuts using onglette graver isolate the beads. Cleaning of the seat is done with setting bur by simply cutting the seat once more.

Ensured stone sits nicely by pushing it with a brush pusher. The beads are then raised and then formed. Too much force is not required during this stage. The process of bead making is very enjoyable. Most of the dressing concerned with weddings, social engagements and traditional celebrations are mainly decorated with the beads.
