Jewellery School. A Bead Caddy Spinner
#v12832
When threading many mini beads onto a beading wire, a bead caddy spinner is a useful, quick tool. Insert a beading wire through a beading needle, spin the bead caddy spinner (turn the lever in the middle). The needle will fill with beads automatically.

How to do it
1. Cut a piece of beading wire measuring approx. 70cm. Squeeze the beading wire flat at the end so that it can easily go through the eye of the needle.

2. Fill the bead caddy spinner with rocaille beads (preferably lots).

5. Push the beads from the needle onto the wire. If a bead is stuck on the needle or wire, crush it with flatnose pliers.
