Create Sea Life Jewelry From Scratch

By Kay William


Not only are the materials from the sea really beautiful, but they are rather easy to acquire as well. Making sea life jewelry at home has been one of the most common hobbies of people because they can get materials so easily. Doing this is not only a great and fun way to pass the time, but it is also very profitable as well because people love to buy beautiful accessories.

Probably the most common material that one may use in order to make these accessories would be sea glass. These shiny pieces of rock come in almost any color like blue, green, or pink, can be found easily where there is water. Most people can find these rocks in beaches when they go near the rocky areas that lead to the sea.

Shells are also known to be widely used in making accessories. It is common to see a beach comber or a surfer collect shells to turn it into necklaces or bracelets. One may also see their houses decorated with big and small shells. Nowadays, jewelry makers also add shells to their designs because of their beauty.

Pearls are also widely used although not many jewelry makers make use of them. The reason why they do not is because pearls are not something that can easily be gotten. However, if one may still want to get his hands on pearls, he may buy it from those raw pearl vendors that can be found in beach resorts.

So in order to connect all of these jewels together, one must be able to play around with wires. It is these wires that will be able to connect all of the pieces and create a very nice design. With these wires, it is possible to grab a few glasses, pearls, stones, and shells and just tie all of them together to make necklaces, bracelets, and others.

One cannot manipulate his wires if he does not have the proper tools at hand. He will be needing a hammer and pliers to move the pieces of metal. The pliers will be the one to help wrap the copper wire around the stones while the hammer will flatten the wires to give it a nice design.

Once the creation if finished, it is always best to brush it off with some jewel polish so that it can be shiny. If one would want to sell any of his creations, then he must make sure that it looks nice so that it can attract customers. No one is going to buy a dull looking accessory because then it will not be nice to show off.

So basically, these are some ways to make sea life jewelry from scratch. The design of the creation will solely depend on the creativity of the maker. There is no one standard way to create jewels like these but there are ways to make sure that they are sturdy and do not fall apart when worn. One may be able to learn these techniques from videos or from the internet.
