These freshwater pearl beads are a little offbeat and unusual, the peacock ones look rather like luscious blackberries.

Knitted Pearl Beads

Known as knitted pearl beads they look very smart threaded on to a fine snake chain and I have seen them used in some pretty spectacular earring making projects! So if you are looking for something a little different then these could be the beads for you.

Or wear it on its own, it is certainly pretty enough. I am going to make a few charms from venetian glass beads and silver findings to hang off it and  send it as a present to someone extra special.

….are back in stock and up on the site. Apologies for the wait, I know we have had lots of enquiries for the beads, we normally keep lots  of them on the shelves, they just got snaffled up quicker than we expected.

Silver plated filigree beads

These cute little filigree beads are so handy as spacers and are such a reasonable price I am not surprised they are so popular. Anyone with a back order will get them posted first class today. Sorry to keep you waiting.

The micro crimping pliers are back too, great for finishing jewellery making projects where a tiny little crimp is essential.
