All DIY jewelry supplies: beads, findings,…

The choice of all DIY jewelry supplies: beads, findings, chains, and tools depends on the desired length, the type of link, the weight of the elements to be suspended, and the desired style.

Fine chains are suitable for discreet pendants and minimalist jewelry. Chains with more prominent links can be used to create more visible pieces or trendy jewelry.

To successfully assemble your piece, combine your chain with suitable clasps, jump rings, pendants, DIY jewelry beads, or findings. You can also consult our guides on DIY jewelry chains and jewelry findings.

FAQs

How to choose a chain for DIY jewelry?

Choose your chain based on the length of the jewelry, the size of the pendant, the type of link, and the desired finish. A thin chain will suit discreet jewelry, while a wider link will give a bolder style.

What is the difference between chain by the foot and a complete chain?

Chain by the metre is cut to the desired length and requires findings to be assembled. A complete chain already has a clasp and can be customised more quickly with a pendant or charm.

What accessories can a jewelry chain be used with?

Chains are used with clasps, jump rings, pendants, charms, beads and other findings. It is advisable to choose elements compatible with the size of the links and the finish of the chain.
