Suncatcher Crystals & Supplies

Suncatcher Crystals & Supplies

Suncatchers are a beautiful addition to the home. A suncatcher, also known as a light catcher, is a small hanging decoration made with reflective crystal, glass, acrylic or beaded components. When placed in a sunny window, it can create a lovely display of colour, shimmer and dancing light.


Instead of searching shop after shop for the perfect suncatcher, you can create your own using our range of suncatcher crystals and supplies. Choose your favourite beads, charms, crystal drops and hanging materials to design a piece that suits your own colour style.

Suncatcher FAQs

What do you need to make a crystal suncatcher?

For a simple beaded design, start with a drilled crystal pendant or prism, decorative beads, suitable beading wire, compatible crimps and a hanging connector. You will also need cutters and crimping pliers suited to your components. Check that the wire fits through the bead holes and can support the finished design.

Which beads can I use for a suncatcher?

Combine crystal octagon prisms, chandelier beads and colourful glass beads to create your strand. Clear and transparent beads let light pass through, while opaque beads add colour and contrast. Choose compatible hole sizes and allow for the weight of your design.

How do I make a beaded crystal suncatcher?

A simple design uses a crystal drop at the bottom, with beads threaded above it and a secure hanging loop at the top. The attachment method depends on your pendant, wire and findings. Follow our crystal suncatcher tutorial and video for a worked example.

Yes. Browse our suncatcher-making kits for a ready-planned project. Check each listing for the components included and any tools or additional supplies you will need.
