Inexpensive Jewelry Crafts

Just making your own jewelry can be more cost effective than buying jewelry. There are also some inexpensive jewelry crafts that you can make for gifts or to decorate your home.

One such inexpensive jewelry craft is made when you use some of your leftover jewelry supplies such as beads, crystals and other gems. Use these leftover jewelry supplies along with a long piece of jewelry wire to string your own candlestick wraps or vase covers.

Wrap the newly strung line of beads around a candlestick or hang from a vase for a great inexpensive craft. Original artwork made form jewelry craft supplies is also a great inexpensive idea. Next you can hot glue your leftover jewelry supplies onto the linen in any shape or pattern you wish.

String the beads along a small wire. Inexpensive jewelry crafts can be used for the jewelry itself. The jewelry supplies you buy will become less expensive the more you use the supplies to make more jewelry. Just about anything you can make can become an inexpensive jewelry craft.
