Sterling silver inserts
I have seen somewhere a source for SS inserts for large hole beads but I can't find it again. And I was wondering if there were others. Does anyone know ?
Thanks !

Sorry, I meant the ones where you can make the bead on the insert, not the kind you glue.

i just don't see them keeping their shape while shaping the bead?

Anne, glad I could help!
I've used them with great success. It's all in the heat control

I use the 1/4" flared, no threads. I like these because I can use them on my Pandora bracelet, or just use them on a thick chain or braid. They look so pretty either way. For me, they were the way to go as I don't really sell anything right now. I think if I did, I would probably think about coring beads after I made them as I think it would be more cost effective. In the meantime, I love using these!
