DIY - Sea Stone Bracelet

Happy New Week!!!

Monday is here and a wonderful weekend just passed! I hope your weekend was amazing also!

A new tutorial is here, an idea about handmade bracelet with sea stone! I have already showed you how to create a ring with a Sea stone and now we are going to create a beautiful bracelet.



What will you need….
A sea stone ( I found one blue already from a tile)
One Wood Bead
Color for Ceramics
Paint brush
Scissor
Leather cord
Clear Tape
Dremel tool



How to create it…

First of all we have to create two holes in the stone. I used my dremel tool to do it!



Choose your color and put small pieces of Clear Tape in you rock in a way to create a beautiful geometric pattern. I wanted to create an asymmetrical line.

Paint your rock with your color of your taste between the tape.




Remove the tape and your pattern is ready! If you wish you can leave it for a while and then repeat the above steps with another color. In that way you will create a beautiful and colorful geometric pattern.

 I used only mustard yellow color and I painted the stone just in order to create a line and nothing more…very minimal!




Use the leather cord in your wholes and just make a knot on both sides.

Another knot at the end of the cord, while at the other side add the wooden bead and your bracelet is ready!




Use your imagination to create a beautiful jewel with more beads or colors or ribbons and cords. I just wanted to create for myself a minimal, bohemian bracelet, perfect for Summer and of course perfect for stacking it with other minimal bracelets!












Enjoy crafting!!!!

DIY - Sea Stone Ring

Good Morning my friends!!


In my last walk by the sea I was lucky enough to find a few cute and very beautiful rocks, possibly from a tile that has been modified from the salty water. So, I collected them and yesterday a few ideas came up in my mind, on how to use them. I will try to post a few tutorials with them.





Let’s start…. Summer is almost here and we may use accessories with more colors or more natural materials. We can create a beautiful, simple ring with one of the rocks and we can create it with the colors we love.


What are we going to need

-      Glue (I use E6000, but any glue for jewelry will be great)
-      Paint brash
-      Ring base (I choose one in silver color)
-      Colors for ceramic






Procedure

I really enjoyed this crafting since I did it with my daughter. Just simple use the colors you love and paint the stone. I wanted to create a ring with the two favorites colors for summer season and in a simple, geometric pattern.





When you finish the paint  just let the stone for a while to dry. And then you are done… just put glow in the ring base and glue the rock. Your ring is ready!




Just to be sure, let the glow for 24h and then your ring will be really stable.








If you want to make it more “bright” or more “flashy”, you may add with white glue glitter or just use transparent varnish. 




So…what do you think? A pure natural ring that is really uncommon!







Enjoy!!!! Happy Crafting!!!
