How to DIY Jewelry with Blown Glass Beads
Here are some perfect ways to finish a bead and turn it into a pendant.
You can put any material you like into it, like sequins, gemstone chips, dried flowers, glitter powder or tiny beads to make a adorable pendant.
1.With Bead Cap Bail *More suitable for Half Drilled Beads Apply glue to the concave surface of the Bead Cap Bail.
You will want enough adhesive for the bail to make good contact with the glass bead, but not so much that it oozes out the sides of the bead and cap.
2.With Bead Cap & Head Pin *More suitable for Center Drilled Beads Choose a bead cap and pass the head pin through the cap and glass bead. Then use pliers to bend the needle tail to make it a complete pendant which can be combined with other findings to make a beautiful jewelry.

Our 18K gold-plated jewelry is not actually made of 18 karat gold, its base metal is usually brass, zinc alloy, sterling silver, or stainless steel. 18K gold-plated jewelry is created through electrochemical plating or chemical processes that deposit a very thin layer of 18K gold onto the base metal, with the gold layer being as thin as about 0.01 to 0.03 micrometers. Despite its thinness, there is real gold on such jewelry, even if it's just a thin layer of it.
The production principle of Real Platinum Plated and Real Rose Gold Plated jewelry is the same as 18K gold-plated jewelry, it is also created through electrochemical plating or the application of chemicals to deposit a very thin layer of karat gold over the base metal. On our website, in comparison to commonly plated products, the color durability of Real Platinum Plated and Real Rose Gold Plated jewelry is superior.
