Bead caps

Make your own ornate "bead cap beads". Take a selection of bead caps in different shapes and sizes and layer them from smallest to largest and then back to smallest to create interesting, textured, metal beads.

Bead Caps can be used in a variety of ways when making Jewelry. They look great when strung on each side of a Bead to add character and style, or when strung at the end of a Necklace or Bracelet to "close" the design. They can also be used when making Earrings, and work very well with Head Pins and Eye Pins to create a loose, natural look.
