I could not wait to jump into all the awesome jewelry-making goodies I got from Beebeecraft! When I had just under 2 hours yesterday, I crafted all 3 of these items and I wore my new pieces out to lunch today!<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

The first piece was super easy. I loved that large Celtic Knot Charm (that reminds me so much of one of my favorite guilty-pleasure TV shows, “Charmed” – I’m wearing this for my Halloween witch costume for sure!) that was part of the 60 piece PandaHall Celtic Knot Charms Set<\/a><\/span>. I just put a silver jump ring on it and attached it to an old Blue Moon Bella Artiste Cotton Cord Necklace that I had in my stash (sorry, I’m not sure where I picked this up, but THIS<\/a><\/span> is similar).<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

The next project was making modern long dangle earrings (I love the look against my long straight hair). I used 4mm lava stones from the PandaHall Lava Stone Beads Kit<\/a><\/span>, Celtic Shield Knot Charms<\/a><\/span>, and old marble chip and glass polished chip beads from my stash. I created double eye loop wires using Benecreat 20 Gauge Silver Wire<\/a><\/span> on which I strung the following sequence of beads: lava, marble, glass, lava, marble, glass, lava, marble, glass, lava. Then I added a Celtic Shield Knot Charm<\/span><\/a> to the bottom end and a silver earring hook<\/a><\/span> to the top. Note: I always use my Nylon Jaw Pliers<\/a><\/span> before I work with any jewelry wire; it gets out any small kinks or bends and also preps the wire for the best flexing.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Lastly, I wanted to make a matching bracelet so I got out the 6mm lava stone beads from the PandaHall Lava Stone Beads Kit<\/a><\/span>, more of my old marble and glass polished chip beads, and the Celtic Shield Knot Lucky Charms<\/a><\/span> with two loops. I made short 3 bead wire components with eye loops on either end, and connected 5 of those bead components to 4 of the Celtic Shield Knot Lucky Charms. I added a Silver Tone Toggle Clasp<\/a><\/span> for a closure and voila!<\/p>\n

All of my jewelry making tools I’ve had for a really long time (they’ve been used so much that the brands have been worn off!); however, I saw that Beebeecraft has this Jewelry Making Tools Set<\/a><\/span> that had everything I regularly use (except the nylon jaw pliers which are linked above).<\/p>\n
