New Project: Snowflakes Jewelry Set
I know that this probably belongs on gaslightgems but this project is easy enough that I know you guys could do it! (YouTube Tutorial here.)
If you were strapped for cash, and its the holidays aren't we all? But if wanted something cute and whimsical for jewelry to brighten up your wardrobe you could do this for about $20-25. Or hey, make if for a gift.
Shopping List: (This should make 1 pair of earrings[small Snowflakes], a bracelet[2 small snowflakes, 2 medium snowflakes and 1 large] and a necklace[2 small snow flakes, 2 medium snowflakes and a large])
Materials:
White/Crystal Fireline (thermally bonded thread) $10 it only comes in a 50yd spool
Beading Needles ($1 @ Wal-mart in the crafting section)
Beads:
60 4mm Crystal Bicones (Crystal or Crystal AB)
12 mm Crystal Bicones (Crystal or Crsytal AB)
22g of 11/0 Seed Beads in (Crystal or Crystal AB)
Findings:
French Wires/ Leaver Backs in Silver
1 pkg assorted (refers to size) jumprings
Silver chain with medium to large links
Clasp silver (Toggle/Lobster claw)
So I thought that I'd share what I've gotten done so far. I've got 6 of these:
I need to make 4 medium snowflakes and 2 large snowflakes. I'll keep you guys updated on the progress. I'm hoping to get this done by Saturday. :D
