Making jewellery as gifts

By Li Mae-Chin


It's not long to go until Christmas and it's time to start thinking about what you might get for your friends, family and loved ones as gifts.

There are some people who are really easy to buy for and you can think of lots of different things that you can get them as Christmas gifts. However, others are more difficult and you might struggle to think of something unique for them.

You might start to consider making something yourself as a Christmas gift to your loved one. If you make a present yourself, then this is much more likely to have an impact as it will be a much more permanent gift, which you have carefully thought about for the recipient.

If you are trying to find gifts for your mum, your girlfriend or your sister, then maybe a piece of handmade jewellery could be the answer. There are so many different styles of bracelets and necklaces that you can make, so it's really easy to create a gift for anyone; particularly with the help of beads. There are so many different kinds of beads available too.

If you are making a piece of jewellery for your mum, then perhaps pearl beads might be a good choice. You can create something very sophisticated but also elegant with these sorts of beads: perfect for your mum.

If you are choosing something for your young sister, then a different style would suit better; perhaps you could try some crystal beads as these sorts of beads have a real feeling of glamour to them. These beads can really make a piece of jewellery stand out. If you are unsure about the sorts of beads you should choose, then perhaps glass beads are a good option. There are so many different colours and designs to choose from and you can find glass beads to suit people of all ages and tastes.

You can create some stunning gifts, just by creating some jewellery with beads. Any loved one would be thrilled to receive such a beautiful and thoughtful gift.
