Handmade Clasps Treasury with Rebecca of Songbead

Obviously, we love beads here at ABS - and you are reading this blog, so I will take it for granted that you love them too! However, I think it's often those bits that can be overlooked - the connections, or the construction points within your jewellery, that really make artisan jewellery stand out from the crowd. How you finish your bracelets and necklaces shouldn't be overlooked - whether you want a big statement toggle, or a simple handmade wire hook, there is something for everyone and every design aesthetic on etsy! Here are a few of my favourites (plus two from my own supplies shop!) that I found.

These are all so lovely, Rebecca... they can easily serve as the focal.
