DIY Dollar Store Glass Bead Table: Sparkle on a Budget

Wipe down the tabletop so it’s free from dust, dirt, and grease. A clean surface ensures the beads stick properly.

2. Arrange the Beads

Lay out your beads to plan your design. Try spirals, random scatter, or a mosaic-style pattern until you’re happy with the look.

3. Glue Them Down

Attach the beads one by one using clear adhesive. Press each bead firmly and allow the glue to dry completely.

4. Optional: Fill with Grout

For a tiled effect, spread grout between the beads. Wipe off any excess to keep the design clean.

5. Optional: Seal with Resin

Pour a thin coat of clear epoxy resin over the beads for a smooth, shiny surface. Let it cure fully before using the table.
