Are you Christmas shopping for a jewelry maker? If you aren’t sure what to buy for a crafter who enjoys making jewelry, don’t worry; the following suggestions will help you choose the ideal gift.
Gold Beads
If you’re shopping for a jewelry maker who enjoys beadwork, bead knitting, bead crochet or bead embroidery, consider giving gold beads as a gift. These beads have intrinsic value that will help to ensure your gift recipient’s projects turn out to be valuable ones. Search, in particular, for genuine 14 karat gold beads, because 14-karat gold jewelry is highly sought after with the fashionable set.
Silver Beads
Silver beads are stylish yet timeless. They, too, make gifts that will have lasting value, particularly if you choose high quality sterling silver beads.
Dichroic Glass Pendants
You can buy one-of-a-kind dichroic glass pendants similar to this one from a number of different glass artisans. A number of talented glass artists sell their creations online at sites like Etsy. Independent artists are the best sources I know of for buying these pendants.
Does your gift recipient enjoy making unique, one-of-a-kind jewelry, bead knitting or bead crochet projects? And does her sense of style include lots of sparkly, eye-catching details? If you need to find a truly impressive gift for a jewelry making enthusiast, a dichroic glass pendant might be exactly what you’re looking for.
