Paul Shane cherishes a hobby of studying and collecting jewellery, to dig out the making and story behind them, especially the rare or exquisite ones, also the Seed Beads being used for manufacturing the jewellery. He also loves studying consumer behaviour related to jewellery selecting and buying. At present he is associated with a leading group called E-Beads Limited.
One of the most commonly used beads in beaded jewellery – are seed beads. Seed beads are tiny beads, quite the size of seeds, and hence the name. They are frequently used in jewellery and jewellery making. They make good accompaniments with bigger pendants or as embellishments with bigger beads. They give a feeling of completeness when they act as concomitant to other kind of beads in a necklace, bracelet or any kind of jewellery and ornament.
The usage of seed beads is not limited to making of jewellery or ornaments. They are also used in craft and bead work. These days we find the seed beads in cushion covers and bolster covers. They are also used in other kinds of tapestry work. They make marvellous ending to the curtains, making the tussocks look gorgeous. Some of the modern day carpets and throws also have bead work with seed beads. The usage of seed beads is as limited as is human imagination.
Beads, especially seed beads are used in hand crafted objects for beautification purposes. They are used in show pieces and stationery items. Often, we find the usage of seed beads in home decorating objects like wind chimes and wall hangings. Also they are used in handicraft, to make things look pretty and complete. Not just seed beads, we also find the frequent usage of bugle beads, glass beads, crystal beads, silver beads and gemstone beads.
When we talk of jewellery, we simply can not discount the beaded jewellery. Beads can be used both for junk jewellery and also otherwise. Seed Beads make junk jewellery more funky and cool, while they play an integral part in other kinds of jewellery. They are essentially used in our everyday jewellery while they can contrast well with the pendants in different kinds of exclusive jewellery.
