When choosing a clasp, think about the overall feel of your piece and choose one that complements your beads. If you used a lot of really large beads, consider a larger clasp and vice-versa for smaller beads and a smaller clasp. Consider too if you want the clasp to be the focal; maybe you don't want to add any beads at all and you want your clasp to be the main design feature.

Designer Picks:

Megan:
The Regaliz magnetic buckle clasp is one of my favorite clasp designs. It is so cute, and gives such a classic feel to your bracelet. I can't wait to see what other applications I can find for it, because I plan to come up with a few more ways to use this piece.

Kat:
I think the antiqued silver plated snake hook and eye clasp is just too cool to pass up. It is a simple hook and eye clasp and when your bracelet is clasped, it looks like the snake is biting his own tail. I find this to be a really interesting design element. It continues the circle of the bracelet without breaking it up.
Karlin:
This antiqued silver half circle clasp is really unique. The clasp is magnetic and offers a secure closure to your bracelet - but it is also incredibly stylish and will add a sleek look to your bracelet. Another great quality about this clasp is that it's perfect for men's jewelry as well, as you can see in Megan's piece, The Logan Regaliz Bracelet.
