    Handmade Jewelry Clasps and Coil Ends



    Corded necklaces are very trendy, casual and seem really easy to make.  I've often wondered how to handle the cord ends . . . I have seen some really tacky looking cord ends as I've gone through the internet checking out handmade jewelry for ideas.

    Love this handmade clasp from Beaded Gem that neatly takes care of those cord ends . . . now I have no excuse but to add corded necklaces to my list of handmade jewelry to make.
