adventures in DIY jewelry making

I love creating my own jewelry - in fact, I enjoy it so much that I teach classes on jewelry making!
Making your own jewelry can be a great way to get the exact piece of jewelry that you want - whether you’re trying to match a particular outfit or want something 100% unique…
Or it could be you find something, like this flying bird medallion, that you just can’t put down 
I decided that plain & simple was the best way to go with this necklace, so I used a piece of chain that had been hanging out in my studio - and just used a simple ring to attach everything together. I love it - and I pretty much am guaranteed to get compliments whenever I wear it
If you’re interested in making your own jewelry, b5media has a DIY jewelry blog called “Jewelry & Beading“.

Love this necklace. I’ve just started jewelry making recently myself!
Thanks Adiel - I sure enjoy wearing it
Feel free to share some of your designs with us if you’d like!
Love the necklace!!!
My sister is about to get married and would like to give a bluebird necklace to all of the bridesmaids, where can I find the medallion?
Hi Nae,
I got it at Michaels Arts & Crafts - but I did get it about 9 months ago. It’s still worth checking out your local store to see if they still have them in stock
