Crimps

Crimp Beads

Crimp beads are small metal ‘beads’ that are attached to the end of your DIY beaded necklaces, bracelets or anklets and squashed using pliers to keep your beads securely in place. You can learn all about how to use crimp beads for making DIY jewelry in my beaded necklace and beaded charm bracelet tutorials!

You can buy some here:

Pinch Ends

Pinch ends are an alternative to crimps. They are gently ‘pinched’ around the ends your beaded strands and feature a loop that can be used for attaching clasps or charms.

Flat crimps

These are great for adding ribbons to your jewelry designs.

Here’s where you can buy some. They come in different sizes too!
