If you are thinking macaroni necklaces and hippie style beaded earrings when you hear the term handcrafted jewelry, you have likely not spent any time at craft exhibitions and shows in the last few years. Handcrafted jewelry has really come into its own with a variety of different metals, styles, semi-precious gems and stones as well as non-traditional jewelry materials. Handcrafted jewelry is often a one of a kind item, making this an ideal gift idea for that hard to buy for person on your Christmas or birthday list. Handcrafted jewelry also is in high demand for bridal parties and special events as the wearer is sure to draw attention and comments on the unique jewelry they are wearing.
The internet has really brought handcrafted jewelry into is own. Artisans and jewelers from around the world are able to market their creations through the internet, literally entering into a global market with just the expense of hosting a website and uploading some digital photographs. Typically the websites provide a good cross section of what the craftsperson produced, but also allows you to communicate regarding custom designed pieces you may be interested in having made. Another great place to locate both handcrafted jewelry as well as the artisans themselves are the season handcraft shows that are commonly held around the Christmas season in most areas. This will provide you with a good idea of what is available locally, which can save additional shipping costs and time lags associated with internet transactions.
Many handcrafted jewelry items feature items such as gems, semi-precious stones or even polished rock that is native to the area where the craftsperson resides. Often this in itself creates the one of a kind quality of the jewelry as the materials themselves are not available in stores or in mass produced jewelry items. In addition handcrafted jewelry may also reset or use some of those odds and ends pieces you have in your jewelry box such as the single earrings, hopelessly bunched up gold and silver chains and even the rings that don't fit anymore and turn them into unique and new creations you can wear with pride.
Some handicraft artisans will also complete custom orders. This is a wonderful way to design your own jewelry with the help of someone that can provide ideas, assistance and typically will not charge as much as a custom designed piece from a jeweler. Of course there are handcrafted very exclusive items that you may want a designer to produce such as an engagement and wedding ring set or an anniversary or family band. Before going to a traditional jeweler however you may want to spend some time browsing around the internet to find out just what is available.
Beaded jewelry is still very popular, although the styles and materials have changed over the years. Modern beaded earrings, necklaces, bracelets and even anklets feature various types of precious and semi-precious gemstones, silver and gold decorative beads and really unique pieces of natural materials such as coral, crystal and shells. These items are both functional as well as beautiful and can typically be matched with traditional jewelry to give a very polished and high fashion appearance.

Easy Beading for Children
Children love to create things, and when you give them easy beading projects to do, it will keep them entertained for a long time. Little girls love to create beaded jewelry that they can actually wear, and little boys would probably be happy making key chains to give as presents, or beaded designs that they could hang on their backpacks.
Take your children with you to the craft store and let them pick out their own beads, beading wire, and possibly even a beading loom if you are willing to spend that much money. Although there are toy kits that you can buy for children that have everything they need to make bead jewelry, you will get better quality equipment if you buy your beads and other accessories from a craft or bead store.
Although there are a lot of jewelry patterns that you can buy at craft or bead store that would make easy beading for your children, you might want to just let them use their imaginations and see what they come up with. Allowing a child to be creative instead of simply following a pattern is not only good for the child; it helps you find out if you have a budding creative genius on your hands! Make sure your children are old enough that they no longer put things in their mouths, and be sure to provide at least some light supervision so you can give them help with their easy beading if they need it.

How to Care Properly for Your Beaded Jewelry
You may think that taking care of your beaded jewelry means only regular cleaning but in fact, it also includes proper wearing, storing, and repairing.
Wearing properly your jewelry comes down to several steps that can easily become a regular habit:
- Don’t put it on before applying your make up, perfume, and hairspray
- Blow-dry your hair and than put it on
- Never wear it when coloring or combing your hair
- Don’t wear it when exercising or in any other activity that leads to perspiration
- Take it off while you are doing something where you can knock it against a hard surface
Make up, perfumes, hairsprays, and hair colors are chemicals that penetrate easily into the pearls and the porous gemstone. This penetration leads to dulling their luster and changing their actual color. Perspiration although something natural for the human body, is not natural for the pearls and soft gemstones and has the same effect as the mentioned above chemicals.
Increased temperatures, for example when blow-drying your hair, destroy the surface of the pearls and soft gemstones.
Washing dishes, cleaning the house, moving accessories and furniture around, gardening - all of these are activities where you might knock your bracelet or ring against some type of hard surface. This leads to scratching the surface of the pearls, gemstones, sterling silver, and/or gold.
Storing your beaded jewelry is another way to protect it and increase its longevity. Don’t just throw all your jewelry pieces on top of each other in a box. Your diamond ring will scratch your beautiful turquoise necklace, your ruby earrings will scratch your pearl necklace, and your sapphire necklace will damage your soft metals (gold, platinum, and sterling silver).
There are several ways to store your jewelry properly and to avoid scratching it:
- Store each individual piece in separate zip lock bag
- Wrap each piece in cotton or linen cloth
- Get a soft-lined jewelry box with many separate compartments
- Keep each piece in its original box
Repairing your jewelry is very important and is integral part of the process of caring for it.
- Restring your silk cord beaded jewelry at least once every two years
- Make sure there is a knot between each two pearls so that they don’t scratch each other or when a tear occurs don’t slide off the cord
- Repair your broken necklace, bracelet, or earrings as soon as you can so that you avoid eventual loss of parts
- Schedule an appointment with professional every two years and let him or her examine carefully your pieces to prevent eventual breakage
Make the proper care for your beaded jewelry a habit. Proper caring for it pays you back by increasing its life and saving its astonishing luster.

Gemstone Jewelry and Beaded Jewelry: Adding Beauty and Color to Your Life Without Spending a Fortune
It’s amazing what the right piece of jewelry can do; it can change an entire outfit by transforming something dull into something eye-catching and colorful. Gemstone and beaded jewelry pieces have a classic look that add something extra to your unique style. The good news is that it does not have to cost you a fortune to look elegant; jewelry pieces made from semiprecious stones can be gorgeous and affordable.
Some less expensive semiprecious stones include: aquamarine, yellow jade, fluorite, aventurine, serpentine, labradorite, and carnelian to name a few (there are many more). These stones are high in quality because they hide scratch marks well and they maintain their luster over a long period of time. Jewelry made from these stones looks new year after year—unlike silver that can look worn after a few years.
The best part about these semiprecious stones is that they come in a variety of bold colors like orange, green, and purple and they look stunning no matter what the occasion. An aquamarine necklace with a dangling teardrop pendant looks perfect with the right formal dress. A bright green Labradorite necklace looks great with jeans and a fitted T. You can dress the stones up or down and always be in fashion.
Colored Stones and beads are hot right now—just walk into Nordstrom or any other major department store and head to the jewelry section--you will notice hundreds of beautiful beaded necklaces with colorful stones. Look around you and you will notice that everyone from celebrities to corporate professionals is sporting the bold gemstone/beaded look.
Just because a necklace has brightly colored beads and stones, however, does not mean that it’s the real thing. Some jewelry is made out of synthetic materials (i.e. plastic) that can look very authentic. Before you buy something, always ask what it’s made out of. You could be paying way too much for something that’s not worth it.
Don’t get the wrong idea—beautiful gemstone and beaded jewelry can still be affordable. You will pay anywhere from $30-$100 depending on how many stones are used in the piece of jewelry—bracelets are not always going to be cheaper—mostly because stones are used to cover the entire length. Some stones tend to cost a little bit more than others—yellow jade for example.
The pieces of jewelry that tend to look the best are ones that have a solid color theme or ones with many different colors—like a rainbow. These tend to be the most eye-catching and have the capacity to match with many different outfits. Be careful about buying something that has a color that is hard to match; you will get more for your money if you stick to the basic and bold colors.

Jill Stewart Tabatabaei has loved fashion since her first job as a teenager when she worked at Meier and Frank Department Store. She started out as a sales rep, but asked her manager one day if she could dress one of the mannequin’s in the store. This took some persuasion, but her manager finally consented.
Jill then proceeded to dress the mannequin—accessories and all—and everything on that mannequin sold within 1 day. From then on, Jill was asked to do the display tables and windows in the store and she has loved fashion ever since.
She owns her own business called thecoloredstone.com where she sells jewelry and other artistic items. She has a natural eye for color and design and loves to coordinate anything to do with either one.
Jill also loves graphic design and enjoys designing websites in her spare time. She graduated from Brigham Young University in 2005 and hopes to pursue an MBA in 2 years after she has obtained adequate business experience from running her own company. She has been happily married for two years and has a beautiful 6 month old baby girl, Izabella.

Taking Good Shots Of Your Finished Beaded Jewelry
You have finished a beautiful beaded jewelry and is thrilled to show it to everyone. What is the fastest way to do that? You can take a picture of your masterpiece and put it on your website.
So how are you going to take the picture so that it is exactly what the real thing is. You want to achieve the effect of what you see is what you get. You whip out your handy digital camera and try to take a picture. When you go to the play mode, you are disappointed. The picture is too dark or there is a shadow below. How can you ensure that the picture you have taken is of real true color.
It is difficult to answer this question. Even a professional needs years to master the skill to take good pictures of jewelry. What are some areas which are potential problems? Here are some:
Photo is blur
You might be using the wrong mode. Usually you need to switch to the macro mode to take good close up pictures. This is especially true if you are photographing beaded jewelry and intricate details should be present.
Shadow
There are many reasons on why there is a shadow. One might be the wrong positioning of the light source or the use of one light. Try to use different light or use a light diffuser. Use of a light diffuser softens the shadows and provides the glow in your jewelry.
Too bright
This happens when you shine the light source directly over your jewelry piece. If you are photographing a piece of crystal bead jewelry, do take note that crystal beads reflect light. Thus it is not advisable to shine it direct and you would see that there is over exposure in many areas.
Background
What sort of background should you use? Should you use a piece of white paper? You have to determine the main focus of the photograph. The jewelry should be the lead item and thus having a fancy background could distract your audience. Use a neutral color like grey or material that do not cause shadow.
Equipment
What equipment should you invest in taking a good photograph? You do not need to buy a whole photo studio to do that. The most important and basic thing is the tripod. In order to take a steady shot and to minimize blurring, it is advisable to take the photo on a tripod.
Adjust the height and focus so that you are targeting at the beaded jewelry.
Software
You might not be a professional but you certainly can add some finishing or sharpening finishes to your photographs. Software such as Adobe Photoshop can help you achieve a desired picture.

Beads For Making Jewelry
Beads can be traced back to the their earliest origins in many cultures by way of their use in bartering. Beads were an early currency and they still retain their value today, but more in a form of decorative jewelry than in a monetary sense.
In earlier times, beads were made from a variety of materials from fishbone right through to teeth and as cultures become more sophisticated, so did the materials that beads were made from
Today beads are mostly used in jewelry making and for embellishing textiles used in the fashion industry. Glass lamp-work beads are often used instead of plastic buttons to give garments more of a designer look, and costume jewelers, as well as those making what is termed "fine jewelry," use beads of all descriptions to make their ranges unique and different.
Whilst fine jewelry houses may predominantly use gemstone beads, the costume jewelry market tends to use a range of plastic, acrylic, wood, and glass beads. It's the versatility of the materials on offer as well as the individual style of beads that lend them to being used in a variety of ways. Because of the endless stringing combinations as well as the plethora of cuts and finishes, beaded jewelry need never look dull, boring or dated.
In recent years the home craft market has seen an explosion in the use and sale of beads. Where once they were primarily used as small detailed embellishments for needle work projects, the last decade has seen a surge of interest in beads for other craft projects. There have been beaded candle holders, beaded curtains and beaded wind charms, as well as a return of interest in classic jewelry making.
In the 1970s home made jewelry was once seen as the prerogative of the Hippie, and long strands of love beads were as interesting as it got. But as with everything else, the internet has had a direct impact on the jewelry making market, and crafters are now easily able to communicate with each other about new techniques and trends.
The resurgence of the Hippie Bohemian look of the last few years in fashion has seen many people return to the art of jewelry making with beads, but the styles and individual expression has meant that we have all benefited from a new modern look in beaded fashion
The bead charm bracelet for is a classic examples of how a bohemian theme can be applied to a modern look. The charm bracelet made an appearance in jewelry in the 1950s, it has remained popular every since, but has been regarded as more of a classic jewelry line, being made from precious metals. The resurgence of the 1970's influenced bohemian look allowed the home jewelry maker to use their love of beads and update the classic look. Suddenly charm bracelets full of colorful glass beads were everywhere from the high fashion catwalk to the high street. And the beauty for the home crafter was that they could create their own style from the large variety of beads now available to make their own unique fashion statement.
Styles may come and go, but beads will always be in vogue and whether your choice is a long string of pearls or a plastic stretchy bead bracelet, the humble bead is here to stay.
