Jewelry Making Silver Charms?

eaglecitizen asked:


I want to start making jewelry. I want to put a small (very small) charm on every item I make as my signature. I cannot find many small charms on websites. Any suggestions?

    Check out etsy.com (that’s a home-made craft online store) and see if anyone’s making something that will work for your items. If not, etsy has a section called Alchemy, where you can post a request for a craft that you need, and the artists on the site will apply to be the person to make it.

    Hope this helps! Titanide

    You could always use a “metal clay” and make your own charm anyway you want.
    For more info on metal clays, look here:
    …click on the category near bottom of list called METAL CLAYS

    Or you could use a polymer clay (Premo, Fimo, Sculpey, etc), then do one of the things to it that makes it look like metal.
    For a summary of those ways, check out this page on making fauxs with polymer clay:–many.htm
    …click on the category called METALS

    If you also want info on creating lettering and/or stamping into polymer clay (or often metal clay too) charms, from the alphabetical navigation bar on the left click on the pages called:
    LETTERS-INKS > Lettering
    STAMPING
    And if you want info on how to hang the charms from things, or thread them onto cording, etc., check out the pages called for various ways:
    PENDANTS > Loops & Holes
    BEAD HOLES

    HTH,
