Having said that though, I still concur that it is best to look at the bead selections and note the difference yourself. (more…)

Titanium Ring.When choosing a ring for that special someone or to complement your own new look, it’s natural to feel limited to a small range of color options. The metals we’re used to don’t offer a lot of variety. Most rings are gold or silver or slight variations on those colors. Even if you’ve considered titanium rings, the new phenomenon making its way into the market, it’s probable that those you’ve seen will all have had the same muted grayish tone. Brightening up rings with gemstones only does so much when the basic color of the band is the same. What can you do if you want to achieve a really different look? (more…)

Forget about inspiration

Ego says: ?I?m an artist, I can?t work if I?m uninspired??well, and Pablo Picasso quotes inspiration exists, but it has to find you working. Who do you believe? I chose to believe Master Pablo, of course. Inspired or not inspired, work everyday. I?m sure there are a lot of ?office issues? like taking better pictures of your items, making tags or whatever that you have pending, as we all have, that you can make it on your uninspired time. My husband is an electrician company director and he goes to work everyday, whether if he?s inspired or not! Why should I have that privilege?

One day, you buy your first plier and some rolls of wire and make your first loop. Disastrous, of course. You add one bead and pain stakingly get to add the hook and you feel like the Queen of Jewelry Land. You actually get it to make a pair. Double feeling of being the master.

Years go by and you keep working at it. Adding the hooks does not take hours anymore, so you start adding more advance techniques, maybe a spiral loop. During these growing times, you learn the hard way of all the ways you can make mistakes in this industry. A few times along the way you decide you won?t make it anymore and maybe ramble with other arts, but pliers and wire always call you back and you find yourself awake at 5 AM because you suddenly woke up with that necklace design in your head.

But maybe you can?t quit your day job because you wouldn?t pay your bills selling jewelry. (more…)
