New Stylish Stringing Project
Let's WOW Mom

The featured beads are beautifully secured with SmartBead BPS, or Bead Positioning System, beads that have silicone linings that grip the chain to keep beads in place. They are easy to position and reposition on the Dione Easy-On Chain, and can also accommodate wire, leather or silk cord. This Dione Easy-On Chain is a stunning 18-inch snake chain with a lightweight, low-profile end finding and secure lobster claw clasp. Dione large-hole beads can be easily added: simply slide beads over the end of the chain to create customized, interchangeable necklace designs.
