Featured Design: Daisy Spacers and Crystal Earrings

Beads, some beads and more beads… when it comes to jewelry making, the first thing that comes to our minds are beads. Yup! Surely, beads are the superstar for most handmade jewelers, but let’s not forget about the supporting actresses and actors, the jewelry findings, especially those cute little spacers.

...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

The Work Room's Inventory Clearance

As the title for this post suggest, I'm currently clearing up The Work Room's inventory of jewellery findings due to my temporary moving base overseas. Since I have only limited baggage allowance allowed for my travel and could not leave them all back in Malaysia since this move, although temporary, does in fact involved a considerable amount of time. Therefore I have no choice but only to bring with me only what is needed and discard the extras. These jewellery findings are all from my own personal collection and now cleared at a heavily discounted price. This opportunity would also be great the for practise purposes of new beaders.

A sneak peak on what's on offer:
