Turn your flat back items into a pendant with The Beadsmith’s glue on bails. The glue on bails are part of our Basic Elements line, a collection of essential jewelry making findings and components, such as bails, lever backs, wire protectors and jump rings. Whether you already have a component in mind, or you are using found objects, these bails work. Use them on glass, metal, ceramic, wood, resin and more.
Our findings are easy to use. They have a flat, textured pad that provides a base to hold your piece in place. Add super glue, E6000, or your favorite adhesive to attach your item. The texture adds an extra level of dimension that gives the glue something to adhere to, giving your piece extra strength to stay secure. Let it dry and you are all set. Next, create a necklace by sliding the loop of your bail through your stringing material, whether that be chain, leather, satin, ribbon, these really are versatile to adapt to whatever project you are working on.
The bails are a great way to take a pretty item and turn it into a unique piece of wearable art. Make jewelry for your friends and family, as well as custom adornments to give as a gift for special occasions such as a birthday or holiday. Take every day found items and turn them into personalized treasures!
