Beading and Handmade Jewelry Tips
Here are some tips for your beading and handmade jewelry projects:
* Pearl, glass or semi-precious beads must either have a knot or spacer between them.
* Use plastic spacers mainly for practice. Use metal spacers on actual jewelry.
* Avoid using a knot between a spacer/disk and a bead.
* Layout your beads before stringing and check for symmetry within the design.
* You can dye string using permanent ink chisel tip markers.
|
* Stringing material must be stretched overnight prior to final stringing - string all your beads and add any terminal clasps or bead tips before stringing.
* Use square knots for all final knots.
* Cut one thread shorter than the other to keep track of ends.
* Dab knots in jewelry's glue for extra strength.
* Keep a free-standing lamp and magnifying glass handy.
* Work on a towel to stop beads from bouncing when they drop. You can also stick bending needles in the town when not using them.
