Filigree Droplet

Have you designed with this sweet little filigree droplet? It’s very versatile and can be incorporated into many jewelry designs and other art projects! Remember, this item opens to a setting – have fun wrapping stones, cabochons, enamels, lampwork lentils, pendants, found objects (soda bottle tops, guitar pics, coins, pottery) & much more! I also love making this into a unique bail. Simply wrap the sides and bottom petal through a small donut stone and loop the top petal as your bail for stringing beads. Create cool links and create clasps using the bead closed in its original shape. Or, simply hang and cluster with other beads from a fine chain. Check out more projects by searching F01 in the Idea Gallery and upload some projects of your own to our Facebook page We would also love to hear other great uses for this bead setting – The possibilities are endless!

I’ve used the filigree droplet, but only as a drop. I really like it’s use in the bracelet, as a link. Cute!

I love seeing all the ways to use each product! I would never have thought to use it as a connector on the bracelet.

Wow, I’ve been looking for a reason to buy the fairy and now seeing these beautiful earrings, I really must get it now. I do love the bracelet and would love to incorporate the fairy as a charm on it. Thanks for the inspirations, as always Jess.
