Hey there, I'm new to the forum and to beading in general. However I'm searching for some 4x2.5mm silver plated spacers. I've checked everywhere and seem to come up with daisy's all the time.... is there another style that is a little more modern looking? Not a big fan of the flower motif to be honest. Just wondering, any help would be appreciated. Thanks! '<img'>

Welcome to the beading world!

Yeah, daisy spacers are the most common, but other styles do exist.
If you use the keyword "rondelle" instead of "spacer", you get a lot more options.

There are these rhinestone rondelles

On other sites I've found, for example, smooth rondelle spacers and coil-style spacers


Also, if you're not set on silver-plating, you can find every style of rondelle in sterling silver, and any color of rondelle and heishi beads in stone and glass.

Enjoy!

Here are a few more ideas -- These aren't all the exact right size (they vary from 3x1mm to about 5x3mm with a few random cubes and rectangles as well) but  they are all silver plated, and spacer-y.
