    I don't know where you can find magnetic beads, but I do have a
    question for you. Can ordinary hematite beads be magnetized? I've
    inadvertently magnetized my cutting shears, and every time I get
    close to a pin or small metal object, it picks it up. So, can we take
    ordinary hematite/hemalyke and magnetize it?
