...and here are some of the casts inside my jewelry box production.
I think they are important, too. I often experience that whenever I try to make a piece, I tend to forget about these cute little ones. There are times that I try hard to make a design, focusing only on the beads, but can’t come up with a good design. And then I would try putting on some spacers and voila! I have created an entirely new piece.
Let’s make the spacers the star for today!
Here’s a great design for an earring using daisy spacers from Donna of THIS YEAR’S DOZENblog.
Isn’t it a great idea?
Now, if I am going to make this earring, I wouldn’t think of using the spacers to fill up or cover the string wire. I think what most jewelers would do is fill the strings with seed beads. ButDonna is really creative in coming up with this design.
I bet you want to try it out like I do, so, let’s prepare the materials that we need and follow thefree tutorial that THIS YEAR’S DOZEN has created for us.
Here’s also a free video from Karla of Auntie’s Beads compiled at DiyLessons on
