Jewelry & Beading

Make Different Types of Beads

by Tammy Powley on December 7th, 2006

dcrj303_1ca_d.jpgWhile surfing around looking for some interesting polymer clay information, I hit pay dirt with a link from DIY. This page, Beads by Hand, shows how to make beads using polymer clay, then paper, then a beaded bead, finally, fabric covered beads.

If you’ve been looking for a way to make your jewelry distinct, consider the beads you are using. Is there a way for you to make your own or at least alter the beads you’re using?

    Hi Tammy
    AND- don’t forget! you can spoolknit over beads, coins, buttons, and other found objects. Ditto for crochet. There is no limit to the nifty things you transmute into jewelry!
    :o) Too much fun!

    Aha! I glanced to the column on the right of this box, and saw: Fiber Jewelry Making……
    Ding! one of my passions, and you’ve inspired me to make some quick and easy stocking stuffers….
    thanks again, Tammy!
