Wedding Jewelry
Wedding jewelry can be a place where you can really let your individuality shine through. No need to purchase something that hundreds of other brides have, be unique! Here are some great ideas to consider:
If you can string some beads you can make your own wedding jewelry. Really! Now is the time to try out a new craft if you aren't familiar with jewelry making, but be forewarned, you just might get hooked. Check out the DIY articles below. Don't possess the skills to make your own baubles or want to make your own ring? There are still many ways to avoid a "cookie cutter" ring, such as buying handmade or designing something to have made. Check the articles below for more detailed info! Design Your Own Ring - No, I'm not talking about those "online designers" where pick what shape of a diamond to put on a pre-made band, I'm talking about sketching your own creation and having a designer make it from scratch. This is what I did for my wedding ring and it is easier (and more affordable) than you may think!
Jewish Wedding Rings - What exactly makes a ring Jewish anyway? Find out more about the meaning behind it, what modern couples are doing and where to look for them.
Handmade Blue Wedding Jewelry - This is a guest article from the {NewNew} York Etsy street team. Check out their amazing offerings of blue handmade jewelry to keep the "something blue" tradition alive. Keep in mind that your craftiness doesn't stop with you! Make necklaces for your bridesmaids or cufflinks for the groomsmen! Pins for shower hosts and don't forget the moms too. A few books on wire wrapping checked out from your local library can go a long way in getting you started.
