Topics: Earrings with Half-Drilled Beads

Q.
What findings do I need to make earrings with half-drilled beads?

- Virginia
A.
When making a pair of earrings or a pendant using half-drilled beads , you need a finding that has a cup with a post or peg . The cup holds or cradles the half-drilled bead; the peg is used for mounting the half-drilled bead onto. These specific findings are designed to be used with glue. We recommend GS-Hypo Cement or Devcon 2-part Jeweler’s Epoxy due to their strength and ability to work with metal and many different bead materials.
