Chain maille is massively popular now and has a 2 page master class spread in this months Make Jewellery Magazine.
One of the tools that helps enormously is the Jump Ring Maker as this allows you to make the jump rings you need in the size and wire gauge you require! This is brilliant because it saves on having to buy loads of different packs of jump rings just to use a few from each.
Try coiling vivid wires to create colored jump rings that can add definition and texture to to your jewellery designs.
Or use gold-filled sterling or base metal wire to fashion components that complement your designs.
The kit includes round 4, 6, 7, & 8mm ring makers. Please remember to always wear safety glasses when cutting wire.

If you buy Make Jewellery magazine you may have noticed our Swarovski Slider beads featured in the December issue (out now).
We can’t believe the response they’ve had – in fact some are sold out already! If you want to purchase some yourself we’d recommend getting in quick as we can’t re-stock these.
Our Swarovski clasps are also selling well, as are the Hollow Venetian Style Lampwork Beads and all in all it seems like our little brush with fame has really paid off for us.

Some people are already getting themselves prepared for the busy party season and we have just the right product to add some glamour and sparkle.
Our brand new Swarovski Clasps category is full of shimmering clasps to give your necklaces and bracelets that little something extra.
We love the filigree clasps as they are so ornate but if you prefer simpler designs, we have those too. We even have some multi strand designs, magnetic styles and toggle clasps.

Not feeling in the festive mood?
Why not visit our Christmas section for some lovely yuletide goodies.
We have some lovely charms and lampwork beads but our favourites have to be the Miyuki Mascot sets – who could resist the cheeky santa or the cute snowman. They would make excellent gifts, either already made up into little phone charms or as they are for a beading friend.

We’ve just uplaoded a range of hollow venetian style lampwork beads to the website.
Each of these Venetian style glass beads is hollow, giving them a distinctive look that is perfect for the focal point of your next piece of jewellery.
The beads are handblown which means actual air was blown into the bead to form a bubble, unlike traditional lampwork beads which are worked by hand on a torch. Handblown beads provide the impact of size without any of the weight.
While you might expect them to be delicate and easy to break, they are actually very strong and resilient.
