During the summer is when we most want to wear jewelry of all kinds, also handmade. We love having different bracelets and necklaces to match all our clothes and if we have to buy them we end up leaving a lot of money on it. But what if you dare to create your own jewelry? Not only would you save a lot of money, but you would also have original and unique objects that would be totally personalized to your liking.
The first thing you need to do is go to a haberdashery that has a good elastic cord dealer and buy a couple of meters in different colors. You can choose the shades of your favorite clothes. The cord does not prevent the use of beads in other colors, but it will set the main tone. You can also buy black and white cord for the multicolored ones.
The next thing is to buy all kinds of glass beads and beads. You can combine plastic, metal and glass. There are specialized stores that sell this type of product, both physical and online. You can even get silver pieces to combine with other things and achieve very attractive effects. If you buy the beads by boxes or small batches, they will be very cheap and will help you make more pieces.
With all this, you only need the closures, which you can buy in the same stores where you buy the beads. The closures can be of different types, choose the ones you like the most and adapt to your way of dressing. You will see that you even have closures for earrings that you can also create with all the material you have purchased.
You may need other items such as needles or special safety pins to spin necklaces or bracelets. And do not forget to also buy boxes in which you can store everything, better without mixing since it will be much easier for you to work with your things if you have them in sight and in order.
With all this, you only need to start designing your creations. Choose the predominant shade and the largest pieces first and then go on adding the details until you have the shape of the complete piece. At this point, you can quickly start creating your necklace, bracelet, or earrings.
Once you become fluent, it will be very easy for you to create increasingly elaborate and original pieces. They will even be fantastic gifts for your friends, with which you will look great spending very little.
