Opalescent Glass
May/110
What is the best thread for 8 / 0 seed beads for multi strand 18 "necklace? And loop?
I am brand new heel crafts. =) What is the best wire to use with pale opalescent glass beads please? Research for the craft store and sterile google. I prefer do not use anything waxed. And no thread for it, must be soft and not rigid. I want to make a 18 "10 strand necklace like the one here: http://i20.ebayimg.com/02/i/000/b6/11/4380_1_sbl.JPG except it has a large floating pendant that I can attach. without the clasps crimp beads? I do not want to invest in tools like this is my first try and I do not know if I want to commit to in the future, so I keep it simple and costs. What do you recommend for closure? Please explain the steps I'm new (only know this crimp beads are British Columbia, I have seen on youtube). Thank you ladies! ♥
you can use a cone beads and tie instead of crimping. Here's a video on how to do it. http://www.firemountaingems.com/beading_howtos/beading_projects.asp?docid=58AZ&sact=search firemountaingems.com has a great tutorial section and all the products you need for making jewelry at a decent price, I would just use a hook clasp for this necklace that I do not thread beads so I can not honestly answer that part of the question
