How to use a Clam Shell Bead Tip for Jewellery - Knotted

Clam shell bead tips are a great way to finish a bracelet or necklace.

Place the thread through the hole in the top and tie a knot in the thread.To ensure a neat finish make sure the knot is tight and then trim the excess. To make it more secure you can add a drop of G-S Hypo Cement on the knot. ⁠⠀

Bead tips are a great alternative to crimp covers and they already have a hole for jump rings or clasps for easy finishing!⁠⠀
