Have you ever had too much of a finding you didn’t care for? In today’s video we use split rings as spacers between beads for a fun look full of movement!
Have you ever purchased beads or charms just because you liked them, but without any idea what you were going to use them for? Since I don’t have unlimited funds I try not to purchase things without at least an idea of…
