well I took jewelry in school for a semester, and we started with making rings with just wires. There are these principles of design to incorporate them in. They are variety, rhythm, balance, emphasis, movement, proportion, and unity. srry but I don’t know where you can get them..and they sell beads in strands and not bags or boxes. it’s just how they come in…if you have anymore question or want definition on these things mail me at Ishild

Smaller beads are always more classier. Just get clear, rubber string, so small beads, and scissors. Its real easy. ☼PeNeLoPe JoNeS☼

They say a picture is worth a thousand words. If that’s true, how much is three thousand four hundred and fifty worth? Well, I don’t know either. But if you’ll follow the link I provided, not only will you find out about many types of jewelry and beading projects, you’ll also see just how it’s done. That way you can figure out, before you spend any money, if it’s something you think you might like.
I do some beading and am learning to do wire wraps. Lots of fun and wonderful as something to totally immerse yourself in and forget the worries of the day.
Enjoy! BozoBuster
