Will superglue work or will I need a cement type of glue ? I'm also concerned that the surface of the beads may be spoiled by the glue.

Linda C asked:

I want to make my own beads instead of buying them in the stores. Originality is important to me and so is creativity.

DJ2 asked:

When I was little I had these large wooden beads with large holes that came with a yellow shoelace like string to string them on. They were large beads with big holes ranging from the size of a large marble to a golf ball. We are looking for something similar to help our son with finger dexterity. Most of what we have seen are too small. Any suggestions or links? Thanks!!
