Tension (or Stop) Bead

A tension bead (or stopper bead) holds your work in place. To make one, string a bead larger than those you are working with, then pass through the bead one or more times, making sure not to split your thread. The bead will be able to slide along but will still provide tension to work against when you're beading the first two rows.

Stringing

A technique in which beads are gathered on a strand. Beading wire, needle and thread and other materials are used for stringing.

Bracelet

Enhance your Halloween look with this three-strand bracelet of sparkling Czech cathedral beads, featuring a bewitching enamel and pewter witch's head charm.
