CAn somebody let me know how to attatch beads to a chain.
Ive seen that things called headpins are needed.Thread that rough the bead, then what??!!
Thanks
Check out this tutorial
http://thesavvywomanbeadingemporium.com/bracelettutorial.html
There are headpins and eyepins. Headpins have a flat end, eyepins have a loop. Thread the bead(s) on the headpin (or eyepin) and then you need some pliers to make a loop. To attach to a chain, open the loop slightly, slide on the chain then close the loop again with the pliers (round nose)
Not looked at the tutorial yet, but hope this helps....
