Hex nuts are paired with screws. Normally. The purpose of the hexagonal shape is for the ease of removing the nut from the screw. There is a tool for that, also shaped hexagonal, or you can simply use a pair of flat nosed pliers to hold the nut still while you unscrew with a screwdriver.
Crafters have found other uses of the hex nuts, though. With some laces, ribbons or twine, the nuts are nice parts of bracelets, necklaces, earrings and anklets. Just search Google images and you will get lots of ideas. You are only limited by your imagination.

I am a full-time home-based Marketing Manager by day, 24/7 Mom, and a Blogger/Content Creator in my spare time. Proud mom to 2 girls and 1 boy, Derelle, Erchelle, and Elric.
I am happy to share my adventures as I walk through motherhood and have to do most things on my own while my husband works miles away from us. Turning my passion into a profitable venture is another thing.
Authoring and managing this personal blog developed my social media awareness over the years.
From being an ex-OFW to doing what I am good at in the comfort of my own home – while taking good care of my 3 wonderful kids, I hope that people see me as a great inspiration when it comes to pursuing my passion and turning it into a profitable venture.
A giant leap like this is such a challenging journey but indeed is rewarding. A few bumps along this whole journey did not stop me from being the best version of myself.
