Jewelry Questions

I thought I'd answer some of the questions about jewelry making. First, it is not hard. The hardest part is choosing beads that look nice together. I have a difficult time making decisions, so I spent more than an hour picking the beads.  At our local shop, you can string the beads yourself, and pay them to attach the clasps. I decided to do it myself to save money. I looked online for directions, used my hubby's needlenose pliers, and practiced a few times.

As for expense, it varies depending on the beads. For each necklace and earring set, I spent around $25. I have enough beads left over to make another necklace, a bracelet, and a few pairs of earrings. I could have spent less on the beads by going to Hobby Lobby or Michaels, but I was really happy with the choices that I made.

So, try it. It will be fun and you'll end up with some cute jewelry.

Thanks

The information is great. Thanks for answering my question. The necklaces are really nice. I like the personal touch of hand making something like that and giving it as a gift. It makes it extra special. I am putting Michaels down on my next outing. Have a wonderful Christmas.
