There are many different findings out there with names that can be easily confused for one another. In today’s Friday Findings video I’ll explain and show you what end caps are and what they aren’t. I differentiate them from bead caps which are close, but not quite the same.

Yes, it can be confusing, but I look at it this way: If I end up ordering the wrong finding, now I’ve got a new jewelry supply to try out and and experiment with. 🙂

There are many different ways you can use these great little findings, from the most obvious as an end to finish a piece of cording, beading or something else, to not quite so traditional and possibly unexpected uses.

You’ll see several examples that will hopefully get your imagination fired for new and interesting ways to use end caps in your jewelry designs.

Here are links to some of the end caps I show in the video, as well as some others you might enjoy using:

• pagoda end caps
• raised flower end caps
• barrel end caps
• Vintaj end caps
• tulip end cap

Enjoy the video and happy creating!
