Crimp Beads/Tubes

CRIMP BEADS/TUBES may be small but they are very important in holding your beads together securely. They are available in two forms, crimp beads and crimp tubes. Crimp beads are great for beginners to use since they work by simply flattening them with a chain-nose pliers. The finishing look of crimp beads will be small flattened rectangles next to the clasps. For a sleeker look or if crimp covers are desired, use crimp tubes. They require a crimping plier to fold over the crimp tubes and create a smaller finishing.
