Crafters May Want To Try Vintage Beads Wholesale

By Larry Schmidt


When it comes to making something great, there is nothing wrong with trying something new. Whether a person makes clothing, jewelry, other other functional art, stepping outside of a comfort zone can be essential to growth. If possible, it may help to look at sales and find out what other interests current and past buyers have. Should the seller find that their buyers have an interest in retro apparel or accessories, it may help to look into using vintage beads wholesale.

One way is to go visit their past sales history or social media accounts to find out some information about their likes or interests. Things worth noting are whether they buy retro fashions and how often, or if they expect to marry in the near future. The reason for the latter is that many vintage styles of beads are ideal for wedding ceremonies.

While it helps to know a little something about adding beads, two things that should be kept in mind are style and practicality. When it comes to choosing a complementary accessory, knowing how the apparel is to be worn is important. For instance, it would not make sense to add dangle sequins to activewear.

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.

There are also pieces that can be used to make older clothes look new. This is a tidy business some crafters are getting into where they look for the best pieces to redesign quickly before selling on their personal site or page. They may get items from friends or family members, as well as thrift stores and yard sales.

Adding a different type of bead to inventory or finished goods can set a crafter apart from their competition. It would also be beneficial to create a series of images and other relevant content that will give online visitors ideas. These images should be vivid and the photography should capture every detail. If everything presented is engaging, this will trigger more visitors to become customers.
