Make a Choker - Slip on Attachments
Make a choker with a conventional clasp as a closure. Space size 14mm
fancy beads between 10 to 15 seed beads or use 4mm beads spaced between.
One inch to one and a half inches of the smaller beads look good between
the 14mm beads on a choker. Then you can slip attachments over one end
of the choker and draw them to the front, spacing them between the larger
beads. You can take these attachments off and put on other attachments.
I have one ivory necklace with large beads spaced evenly between 4mm ivory
beads. My attachments are ivory carvings that I can slip on and off for a
different look. I also have a choker with large glass beads with silver
dichroic highlights. I slip on attachments and mini purses and other
items that have straps and are not actually attachments for embellishment.

Hair Rollers
are great for keeping strung beads from getting tangled. Sponge type hair
rollers that have a plastic piece that clamps down to hold hair, will keep
your strung beads in check. It also works great to keep thread from getting
tangled.
Place the beads close to the working thread spool and roll up the beads on the thread until the cut end of the thread is the last bit to go on the roller. Then clip the roller and the strands are protected. If you have beading or bead crochet started, repeat the same steps, starting to roll the beads and thread on next to the working thread spool and continue until all the beads and thread are rolled except the beadwork and then clamp the piece. You can put the hair roller with thread or strung beads, the working thread spool and the beadwork in a plastic baggy for travel or put away until the next time you are working that project. If you are making braids freehand, you can roll up each strand on a hair roller and let out the strands a little at a time as you work. You can use them for working small weavings on a loom too.
