Vintage Beads Wholesale Are Ideal For Jewelry Makers

By Larry Schmidt


For a lot of designers, mixing things up and straying away from tradition is not only a form of creative expression but can promote sales. When designs from the past are brought to the present, it can be quite a statement when customers are not expecting it. However, before investing in vintage beads wholesale, it helps to find out whether this may be of interest to current customers.

These are nice to add to necklines, trim, or alone in a piece of neckwear. Beads of this kind may also work with home decor items like a picture frame or paperweight. All it takes is the right kind of glue or sewing tools that can make plain items sparkle or complement another design style.

Beads can be used to complete a room theme and the best way to find these is to look up patterns and styles that were popular in a certain decade. Some designs, like animal prints and polka dots, seem to return every few years. Then again, there are others, such as camouflage or chevron, that never appear to go away entirely but experience a popularity surge at some point.

Consider how something will be worn and the wearer. A good example is basic shirts that are cut low in the neckline. Applique beads or sequins that are small in size make an ideal trim but if one were to use large or medium sized beads, the look would be awkward. However, for the dressmaker that specializes in evening or formal wear may go for the blinged out look.

Jewelry makers that like to create chandelier earrings will find a huge variety of ideas that may go back a century. Fantastic plastic, lucite, and moonglow beads can be used to make cool accessories that cannot be found at the hip retailers that probably charge a fortune. Anyone who wants to expand their collection may want to peruse lookbooks and related media from every design decade for inspiration.

One thing that any crafter is likely to find fascinating is how simple pieces tend to stand on their own. While some may want to include retro pieces with modern beads, too much going on can take away from the design. Lucite moonglow beads look great on their own but when paired with a busy or abstract bead, their natural luminance get lost.

Some crafters like to give new life to old clothing and home decor accessories by adding beads and a coat of fresh paint. These can be fun to add to any home and design ideas can be found in a number of magazines that show how to repurpose items. Many projects can be done quickly with a needle and thread or fabric glue.

The best way to tell if this would be good for business, the crafter may want to try renovating their old items. They can add dyes, fabric sparkles, and trims to complement the beads. Another idea would be to create several types of jewelry using different kinds of beads, If they get a positive reaction from other, either live or online, this can be the green light needed to proceed further.
