Nanmu Powder

Nanmu Powder for DIY Incense Beads

Nanmu powder is the natural binder used to turn aromatic powders into workable incense bead paste. When mixed with water and fragrance materials, it helps the blend hold shape during rolling, molding, drying, and polishing. This makes it a core material for DIY incense beads, scented bracelets, and wearable fragrance jewelry that avoids synthetic glue.

Use Nanmu Powder when you need a refill, and add the Nanmu sifter for smoother texture before mixing. If you are new to the process, the Incense Bead DIY Tool Kit gives you the broader set of tools and materials needed for your first batch.
