Ideas for using gemstone chips
We absolutely love chip beads as they are relatively inexpensive (when compared to shaped gemstones) and yet you still get all that gemmy-goodness! Chips are a great bead to use in-between other larger beads; or, due to their smaller size they look great in multi-strand designs.We also love to use chips (often among other beads) in one of our favourite designs, the cluster. Or, of course, you could simple string them on elastic to make a super-sweet (and cheap!) gemstone bracelet. Note: if using elastic, we normally recommend 0.8mm for chips. But please refer to the individual product listing as hole size may vary.
*$5.00 deal only applies to standard (common) gemstones. Some rarer stones may be more than $5.00. But we try our best to keep all of our chips at the lowest price possible!
