And how do you attach them etc etc?|||It looks like a strand of rhinestones.


Rhinestone banding/strands are a connected 'chain', or row, of individual stones, each stone held in a metal or plastic 'cup'. A 'single-row' strand is one continuous row of connected stones. A 'double-row' strand is two continuous and connected rows of connected stones. Stranded stones are also available in triple, quadruple, and even more rows. The stones may be connected using one or a combination of methods, including strung with solid or elastic thread, or strung and set on a colored net or elastic backing.


They can be sewn or glued on.|||If they were diamonds or gemstones the mounting would be called a bezel. I would try a craft store to see what kind of jewelry findings they stock.|||It looks like a plastic bezel setting. If it was metal, you would use a small tool to gently push the bezel (the bit that goes around the stone) over the edge of the stone, but I'm not sure how well that'd work with plastic. You might just have to glue them.
