Another reason to include 2mm rondelle beads in your project is to add to the interest and intricacy of our project. Smaller beads take patience to work with but the result is very special and will add value to your designs.

When working with 2mm rondelle beads, it is wise to consider your method of storing them. Bead storage can be an ongoing problem and you may want to think through where and how you wil be working, and if you will be moving around with your project. Even if this is just a hobby, bead accidents are not fun to deal with.

There are many bead storage methods and bead boxes currently on the market specifically for the 2mm rondelle bead. Some are stackable, some are in drawers. They are good for larger inventories of rondelle beads as well as other smaller stones and findings.

These very small, yet beautiful rondelle beads come in a variety of colors and shapes. Rondelle beads will add interest and fine detail to your jewelry project. Many intricate designs and styles will call for the 2 mm rondelle bead such as the crocheted necklaces featured here - by LWS Jewelry Designs

Some great ideas for projects which include the 2mm rondelle include bookmarks, lampshade accents, friendship cards, and back to school items for girls. You will enjoy embellishing kids playroom accesories with the 2mm rondelle beads as well as making plain bookmarks memorable. 2mm rondelle beads come in a mix of translucent colors and range from pale pastels to very vivid shades. The surpise of your variety is half the fun.

I have found the multi-compartment containers to be handy when choosing my colors. See-through containers are perfect for my use. Also, I like using a small bead scoop to get the right amount of rondelle beads from the drawer to my work surface. Some prefer to store their 2mm rondelle beads in small zip lock bags for easy traveling from place to place.

Recently I read an article in a jewelry magazine that recommended having large "O" rings or gaskets handy to corral your 2mm rondelle beads while working on a project. Small rubber mats are also a great way to keep these tiny beads from rolling away from you.

There are endless solutions and ideas available if you just keep looking!!
