How Did Jewelry Making Become A Passionate Hobby?
Filed Under (Beaded Jewelry) by Evelyn on 17-09-2007
I attended my first Jewelry Making Workshop at the Civil Service Club in March 2006. There were about 25 participants and within 2 hours, everyone was able to complete 2 projects each. Plus time for a break for High Tea and excited chatter.
There was this Sense of Accomplishment. We made our very own accessories for the 1st time. A pair of Earrings and a Ring customised to our finger size. Something we can wear and treasure.
From then on, I joined the Elementary Stage for Jewelry Art & Creation Course, and continued learning up to Intermediate Stage. I even visited every Beaded Jewelry Supply Shop I can find in town. Bought lots of beads and parts and worked into the night past 12 midnight everyday.
Why That Kind of Fever?
The inspiration came from my Jewelry Teacher. She sets high standards, but made sure they are achievable as I progress from one level to another. It gives me great satisfaction. Jestina M Hong is the teacher, Jewelry Art Designer, and the Singapore Author of the book “‘Enchanting Handmade Jewellery: DIY Guide to Creating Jewellery from Crystal Beads & Pearls“.

The Hippo is so.. lovable. I keep watching this Hippo and Dog Animation over and over.
Never tired of listening again and again.
I just cannot resist but find out what they are singing about!
We-de-de-de …………… A-wimoweh, a-wimoweh.
So! The original song’s chorus of ‘uyimbube’ (meaning “you’re a lion”).

Beaded Jewelry Making is an inexpensive and fun hobby that nearly anyone can do. The materials needed are available at Beads Jewelry Supply Stores and do not cost very much. Aside from the required material like nylon strings, metal parts and beads, there are also some other materials that the hobbyist can use in making beaded jewelry. You can also experiment with various beading techniques to make interesting, beautiful and unique creations.
Basic beading techniques involved in making beaded jewelry are Stringing, and Wire-working with beads. Various types of string are available: cords, plastic, twine. You can also use silk and nylon threads most popularly utilized in making beaded jewelry. Using fiber in beaded jewelry gives a nice touch – it transforms the product into a unique creation and makes a great conversational topic. Wire of various thickness is another popular option. In addition, wire is used to make beaded jewelry items such as rings, earrings, bracelets, necklaces, and gives a polished finish and connection onto clasps.
Beads for jewelry are available in all shapes and forms and sizes as well. In spite of beaded jewelry’s reputation for being inexpensive, a person can also use precious gemstones like pearls and precious metals, such as gold and silver, to make beaded dress accessories. Beginners, can choose to work with less costly materials that are widely available for making beaded jewelry. There are beads made of glass, crystal, coral, polymer clay on sale or DIY yourself. Whatever materials as a design artist uses, he or she is able to customize the type of beaded jewelry to be worn personally, given as a gift, or sold to Beaded Jewelry Lovers.
Choice of colors and enhancing the piece presents an overall visual effect of the beads, a number of knotting and stitching techniques are recommended. Learning basic methods like simple knots and stitches will help beginners, and with practice, you will be able to progress to the more complicated and fancier methods used in making beaded jewelry.

Hi, my name is Evelyn Lim. Beaded Jewelry Making is one of my favorite hobbies.
Beaded Jewelry Making is something I have been learning to do with great passion. And I want to share this passion with you. If you are creative, and wishes to work from your home, it can earn you money while doing something you really enjoy working on your favorite hobby. When I first started on this hobby, I made beautiful bracelets and rings for my daughter. Her friends and her cousins liked them so much, I starting making lots more accessories as presents for them on Valentine’s Day and their Birthdays. Then came Christmas, I launched a home party sale and made Profits.
