Conventional products are often decorated by incision, stamping, embossment, sprigging, graffito and glazing. However, some pieces are often marred by the kind of finishing that are given to them, particularly, inappropriate glazes. Therefore, the introduction of beads on ceramics wares might be a remedy to cushion the problem. The experimental process of this study went through the sourcing and processing of materials which include: Clay and kaolin collection, beneficiating the materials, production on the potter's wheel and drying, bisque and glaze firing. While the beads design entailed collecting assorted colours of beads and strand, passing the strands through the beads and finally hanging on the ceramics vases in a creative manner. Bead design on ceramic ware added value and enhanced the texture and aesthetic qualities of the products produced. This is a pointer to the fact that other non-conventional materials could be explored for such products to inspire and educate producers to increase creativity.
