Mix gemstones and metal findings for an armful of summer jewelry.
Instructions
Mixing bold gemstones is both a fun design challenge and a great way to combine leftover beads.
Tip 1: Mix a few colors together instead of going with just one. Your piece will be visually appealing and less heavy.
Tip 2: Try to incorporate a lot of metal elements into your design. The finished jewelry will be more versatile fashion-wise and can be styled with many different outfits.
Tip 3: Remember that your color choices aren't restricted to beads. Don't be shy about mixing metals; it's fun and trendy at the moment!
Tip 4: Get the size right: Bracelets made of bigger stones and findings need to be longer than smaller ones to fit the same wrist size. Don't guess; check the fit often while making your bracelet.
