Beads / Crystal Jewellery

Dear friends,

I have gone crazy with beads and this post is on my first try with Fashion jewellery. Fashion jewellery / beads jewellery can be easily learned by anyone. Hope you all remember your childhoood days of beading the beads with string. It is the same. Will post a separate post on DIY bead jewellery.



 I have customized the sandstone & pearl jewellery set based on a request from my friend. It would be a birthday gift for her cousin. Hence I have packed the jewellery in a handmade box with a sentiment fixed to it.



Since she want the outer design to be CAS , have made a simple quilled flower and fixed it on top of it. 



Hope she likes it.

Teracotta Jewellery

Dear friends,

My today's post is on Teracotta jewellery. I thought making these jewellery would be tough and haven't tired it for a long time. 

Just thought of trying it myself and bought air drying clay from Itsy Bitsy and tired with my hands. It is so easy and i remembered by childhood days making toys using clay. It is the same method.

Here is step by step tutorial for making a teracotta jewellery.(Clay jewellery tutorial)

  1. Take a few portion of clay - may a lemon size.
  2. Knead the clay well like we make dough for chapati, but don't add water. you can do this on a plastic sheet or on a metal surface.
  3. Once the clay is soft to mould, you can into any shapes by touching water( like we make shaped chapattis for our kids) Hope now you got a idea.
  4. Pls use tooth pick to make holes.
  5. If you want to use eye pin for earring , insert it while designing(wet condition)
  6. Allow it to dry for 24 hrs
  7. Coat the dried piece with black acrylic paint(fabric paints) and allow it to dry and you can coat it with your desired colours.
  8. Once they are dried completely, it can be varnish with any type of varnish for glow and to seal the paint

My first teracotta earring is here. I haven't used any mould, so shapes won't be appropriate and have used fun paints to colour.


Hope you like it.
