Introduction: Spring Stop for Beading

By
About: I started my own account after helping my boyfriend with a few of his own projects on instructables. I love making jewelry and paper mache. My kitchen and I don't always get along but sometimes we try to spend…

I would like to admit that I've never lost a strand of beads while beading but thats is in no way true.  I kept meaning to get a stop or end for beads while at the store but always seemed to forget.  I got into my boyfriend's springs and there they were.  A spring with loops on the end.  I figured why not make my own.
 
Supplies:

Spring**
Plastic Dip, Sugru, or Clay

**You can get the springs at the hardware store. We happened to have a box that contained a bunch of different sizes. 


 

Step 1: Add Mini Handles to Spring

Take a small piece of your plastic dip, sugru, or clay and roll it into a ball.  Then place it on the end of the spring and mold it around the loops.  Let it Dry.

Step 2: Save Yourself From "OHHH NOOO!"

Fold your spring back, insert your wire or string and get beading! This is a very simple way to keep your headaches down!.
