How to: Cabochon rings - The spacy version.

I used nail polish to spice up some of my cabochons :)

Varnish the setting and a cabochon with nail polish of your choice. Let dry and glue cabochon into the setting.

Find a matching outfit and wear!

I don't know how and I've found this by accident, but shelterness.com featured my Nautical seahorse bracelet which can be also worn as a necklace! With summr approaching (more or less), this is also worth showing again.

Thanks shelterness.com, maybe you're telling me next time so I can be happy earlier? :D

How to: Studded barrettes

Yay, another tutorial involving studs! :)
I've found my inspiration here on Pinterest:

...and decided to give it a try, in a slightly different way.

Get some barrettes.

If your studs have 4 clasps/prongs, remove two opposite lying ones.

If your studs are rather large like mine, prepare felt squares and hot glue them into the studs for a better basis.

Start hot glueing the studs on your barrette.

...keep going...

Done!

Don't forget to bend the clasps/prongs so that nothing will hurt you when you wear the barrette.

Wear!

How to: Golden Stud Bracelet

Last week my golden pyramid studs arrived :) And I instantly had to make something of them! I used black elastic, cut it the size of my wrist, sewed it together and put the studs on it. Easy as that!

How to: Golden Spike Earring Studs

You'll need screw-on studs (I found mine very cheap on eBay), blank earring studs (in the best case golden coloured, too) and a hot glue gun or jewellery glue like Hasulith.

Take front pieces (the basic spikes without the screw-part) and hot glue it on each earring stud.

Then try them on and admire your utterly work-intensive creation ;)

Nice sunday, everyone!

How to: Golden spike necklace

The spikes were from ebay, you can get them very very cheap from China. Just search for them, you'll see it's easy if you have paypal, and they have all kinds of differents studs and spikes! :)

How to:

- Gather your materials. Arrange the spikes like you want them. This picture is actually from my bracelet tutorial, so they're lying differently than in the actual necklace.

- Attach them to the chain with jump rings.

- Attach the clasp

And you're done!

How to: Spike ring

The studs are from ebay. I expected them to be way bigger and wondered what to do with them - et voila: I made a ring!

How to:

Cut the clasps off. (If there are some)

Fill the spaces with hot glue.

Glue the studs on the ring. :)

How to: Multi-layered pearl necklace

- Cut your chain & pearl string in a desired length.

- Add jump rings to the ends of the chains. Then attach a clasp.

How to: Vintage Ring

I'm obsessed with photo jewellery and there is no cure.

The rings & cabochons were from a German shop on Dawanda, in case you're wondering.

How to:

Here's what you need.

Cut out a snippet from a magazine in the matching size of your cabochon.

Glue it in the photo place of the ring.

Wait a little, maybe 20 minutes, then drip a tiny ball of glue on the pic and quickly put the cabochon on it, gently pressing all glue bubbles out.

I used a peg to hold it together over night, to avoid any bubbles that could appear later. :)
