Beading ideas to get you started

Beaded jewellery rarely goes out of style, and there's no shortage of ideas and inspiration to help you get started making your own designs - whether it's just for you, your friends and family, or you want to start your own collection to take to markets or craft expos.

Necklaces, pendants, bracelets and earrings are the perfect projects to practice the art of beading. By starting with these kinds of projects, you get to unleash your creative side and come up with stylish, eye-catching jewellery that's uniquely you while also practicing important stitching patterns for jewellery making.

Consider beginning your craft with a simple, threaded friendship bracelet for someone you love, and then see where the inspiration takes you.

All the jewellery making supplies you could ever need

Bead packs and strands

Whether you need pearls, gemstones, crystals, daisies or glass beads, bead packs and strands will give you stock reserves to pull from whenever you want them.

Beading thread, cords and strings

Beading thread, cords and string - such as twine, jute, wire, leather, satin and wax rope - make it easy to create durable, beaded jewellery without compromising on visual appeal.

Beading tools and display stands

Beading tools - like pliers, scissors and cord-cutters, beading mats and needles - turn intricate tasks into simple ones. Tastefully show off your designs, or simply keep your dressing table neatly organised, with contemporary jewellery display stands.

Jewellery findings, parts and components
