TierraCast BeadAligners help the large-hole Grace Lampwork Beads at the center of this necklace stay on the strand in line with the other beads. With these bead aligners, you can easily use large-hole beads on thinner stringing materials. You can learn more about these fun components, along with other items you might not know we have in this Artbeads Cafe episode.
Cut a length of jewelry wire approximately eight inches long. String on a sterling silver 2x2mm crimp tube, followed by a 5mm antique silver-plated 18 gauge open jump ring. Bring the wire back through the crimp tube and crimp in place. Use a sterling silver 3mm crimp cover to hide the crimp.
Nice choice! All or most of the products needed for this project are shown below with quantities. Sometimes we sell out of components and aren’t able to order more from the manufacturer (we know, it is very disappointing to us, too). Use the opportunity to mix up the design and make it yours by substituting similar products or altering the entire color scheme—it’s up to you!
The roundel beads from Grace Lampwork have lovely patterns, so I chose them as the focal piece for this design.
