Getting started can be a bit confusing, mostly because there are huge numbers of bead selections. If you pay a visit to any craft store you'll probably be confronted with row after row of beads in every feasible color, shape, and texture. Knowing where to start, and which beads to decide on can be complicated at first. The best idea for a beginner is to browse pictures and websites, and look at many different types of hand-crafted jewelry that are made from seaglass and beads, to see if a certain style sticks out that they might want to recreate it. Another beneficial resource that will teach you techniques, and help you get ideas are from craft stores, because they usually offer classes or instructions to people to help them learn how to do it. If you are new to jewelry making, you will have to buy a few items that you will certainly need in order to make beaded jewelry. Definitely, you have got to get some beads. Start out with a varied selection of shapes and sizes that are pierced in the center for threading and stringing purposes. Beads can be made out of crystal, clay, seaglass, wood, plastic, meal, or even semi precious stones. The fun part is searching for all the bead options, and deciding on what you would like to see in your piece. The beads will vary in cost on account of what material they are made from, and the general quality of the bead. For starters, do not overbuy and obtain too many beads, which can be an issue with so many fun options. Making a bead budget is recommended, so that you won't overspend, and a good figure to start with is between $10 to $20 dollars. Keep in mind that you will want to purchase accessories that go with the jewelry pieces too, such as wire, eye pins, jump rings, clasps and stringing materials. Jump rings are necessary to jewelry making, because it's the circular wire that is split, that closes and opens to attach pieces together, like you will see in a charm bracelet. Certainly, the clasp is very important, as well, because it secures both end pieces of a bracelet or necklace together. Wire is used for precious stones or metal bracelets, because it is more secure than other materials. It comes in unique lengths and widths, so ask a craft store expert and employee for some recommendations on which wire material is best suited for your needs. You will have to buy few basic instruments or tools, such as a wire and thread cutters, and chain nose pliers to seal off the wires and beads when it's time to cut wire. It could be tempting to buy the least expensive tools, but they could end up harming your jewelry, so it's worth it, in the long run, to purchase higher quality tools.
