Jewelry Making

adobeprincess asked:


I need to find a clasp that I can attach to leather cord. The problem I am finding is that most of these are either sterling or base metal which I am allergic to. Do you know of a solution of how I can attach a clasp to a choker of leather round cord? I need to be able to make it a specific length. This is my problem. Any solutions? I need some metal or other material that is not base meal and does not contain nickel.

Any solutions would be appreciated.
Eye I love that word canabalize. Well there are tons of things that an allergic person can use. If you want to know you can research that one for yourself. I can use that idea however. Jewelry Supply catalogs have many other options. Basically anything without nickel will work. Think about it animal vegtable mineral whatever will work. Just without nickel. I am trying to make something nice here, so at this point I am not using plastic, but it is an option.
Thanks for mentioning the leather on leather tie option people I know about that one and it is good. I am going for a clasp right now.
Thanks for mentioning Michaels and the like. I think they are kind of pre-fab and low end. I really think they are expensive for what a person gets. I like more wholesale higher quality items rather than mass market stuff. I go for the more unique or the higher quality stuff. Thanks for the michaels however. I think it is important to get bead stuff from all sources. Yard sales junk stores and even michaels sometimes, just I find their findings really expensive and limited for what you get. Thank you anyway. I really appreciate it.
Thanks for mentioning wood that is a good idea. I have not thought of lately.

My friend and I are gonna start making some Resin jewelries and we’re just wondering if we can use Candy molds instead of resin molds since we don’t have any idea where to buy Resin Molds here in Manila, Philippines. Thanks

I am leaving for vacation in two days and I don’t have time to shop for a jewelry roll or travel jewelry box. Any ideas for creating one with stuff from around the house? I have some crafting skills, but no sewing machine or anything like that. I just need space for a couple of necklaces, bracelets and pairs of earrings and way to keep them from tangling.

i am really interested in making silver wire jewelry, but i dont have any single tools and wire for it. if i dont want to purchase the things online, where can i buy the tools. i mean what shop usually sell those tools ,silver wire and beads

I was wondering how I can make a wooden jewelry box. I wont have access to any machines or anything like that, Im plannin on getting the materials just at my local home depot. A list of materials would also come in handy, if anyone can add suggestions. I want the box to be about the size of a regular shoe box, and nothing fancy, just a box with a lid that opens up, used for storage of keepsakes that include photos, letters, etc. I also plan on engraving something in the front, maybe with a knife, any suggestions to this would also be appreciated.
