Teach Your Kids a New Hobby - Wire Jewelry Making

by Judy Ellis
All of us with kids are looking for ways to help our children experience a wide range of activities. We do this to help our children discover their talents, stimulate their brains, and to give them enjoyment in life's activities. However, once your kids reach the teen years sometimes they lack the incentive to jump into your planned activities. So, next time you're trying to recruit your teenagers into an art project - pick wire jewelry making - you'll be glad you did.
Sell them on the idea first.

Ask if they'd like a new piece of jewelry.

Make it special, personalized to their taste, and matching their outfits.

The answer will be yes, of course!
Set a date for the event.

Try a week of Sundays to meet and learn the new hobby together.

Once dates are set, browse the Internet with your teenager for wire jewelry supplies.

Start at www.wirejewelry.com.
Browse beads, stones, and wire.

Don't forget training products, design pattern kits, and DVDs for instructions.

They're ideal if you're a novice.

Consider buying a book or ordering a magazine.

Help your teen learn this skill, and they'll want to learn more.
Also, remember, jewelry making is not just for "girls." Guys can have fun with it too.
Next time you plan an activity with your kids, choose wire jewelry making.

Include a piece for yourself too.

You'll enjoy the time together, discover new things about your teen, and get new jewelry.
