This gold-finish slide end tube is ideal for finishing your DIY creations woven with Miyuki 15/0 seed beads and Miyuki Delica 15/0 beads.
This special bead-weaving tip is suitable for all techniques: even or odd peyote weaving, brickstitch weaving, square stitch weaving and loom weaving.
It's equally useful for small and large DIY projects, such as necklaces, key-rings, pendants or woven bracelets.
You can also use Miyuki Delica 11/0 beads, provided there's no knot when you finish your creation, as in this woven bracelet tutorial, with its hypnotic Brazilian-inspired motif. Indeed, the beads + the knot will be too voluminous and will have great difficulty passing through the tip.
How to use this special weaving tip?
1) Once you've finished weaving, tuck in any protruding threads.
2) Thread your weaving into the mouthpiece, passing the first row of beads through the end of the mouthpiece with the flap open
3) Slide the weaving along the mouthpiece, using round-nose pliers to widen the slot and mouthpiece entrance if necessary. Then close it by folding back the two ends with flat-nosed pliers.
4) For a more durable hold, you can use a drop of jewelry glue to secure the whole.
5) Slide an open ring into the clasp on this endpiece and hook the clasp.
