Hexcut 11\/0 works excellently with \u003cstrong\u003eDelica 11\/0\u003c\/strong\u003e, regular seed beads, bugle beads, and drops. Just remember that Hexcut reflects more light thanks to its facets, so feel free to use them as \u003cstrong\u003eaccent beads\u003c\/strong\u003e: in outlines, in details, or as \"highlight\" rows in an otherwise matte pattern.

Only keep one or two colors out at a time and store the rest closed in their containers. A practical tip is to immediately label each container with Miyuki's \u003cstrong\u003eoriginal number\u003c\/strong\u003e and preferably also a small color swatch on the label. Then you can always reorder the exact same color from Hilmaspyssel.se. If you accidentally mix two similar shades – use them in a “scrap project”, such as a variegated bracelet, instead of trying to sort them by hand.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Can I reuse Miyuki Hexcut 11\/0 from old or broken jewelry?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Absolutely. Carefully cut open the jewelry, remove the thread, and rinse the beads in lukewarm water with a drop of mild dish soap. Let them dry completely on paper towels before returning them to labeled containers. This is both \u003cstrong\u003ecost-effective and sustainable\u003c\/strong\u003e, and thanks to Miyuki's high quality, the beads retain their shape even after several projects.
