Milk Carton Beads | Peru Ceramic Beads
Be the first to review this productA tiny white gable-top carton, complete with a painted label and that familiar fold-and-pinch roofline — the milk carton is one of those everyday objects that turns instantly charming at miniature scale. It reads as retro diner, school lunchroom, and breakfast table all at once, which is exactly why food-jewelry makers love it.

This bead is glazed ceramic, so the white ground carries a glossy, milk-bottle sheen, while the brushwork on the label and seams adds the small irregularities that signal a piece painted by a person rather than printed by a machine. The boxy rectangular profile also sits flat against the wrist, giving bracelets a clean, geometric rhythm that round beads can't match.
At roughly 3/8 inch long with a 2mm hole, it strings easily on leather cord, stretch cord, or standard beading wire. Use it as the centerpiece of a breakfast-themed charm bracelet, pair it with cookie and pie shapes for a bakery necklace, or hang a single carton from a zipper pull as a gift that makes people grin.
A small carton of nostalgia, ready for your next playful design.
