Jewellery Maker #Blog2win

JewelleryMaker is an online supplier to jewellery makers along with a tv channel and online live shows they have fantastic designers showing how to use their different products everyday. I have blogged about them in the past and you can see that post here. 

#Blog2win is a competition that JewelleryMaker are running offering the chance to win some of their fantastic gemstones. So let me tell you about my favorite gemstones strands available on the Jewellery Maker website.  

First up is a strand of Emeralds. I love Emerald and the colour of this strand is beautiful. There are 25cts cut into graduated faceted rondelles on this strand. 

You can find them on the website here.

The second piece I want to show you are these beautiful blue Sapphires. There are 30cts of graduated rondelles in a beautiful blue hue. 

You can find them here.

Now for the Onyx. I have always had a love for Onyx. I love the shine and definate black of the gemstone and this strand is exactly that. There are 80cts of plain round Onyx beads on this strand. 

You can find them here.

Next I have chosen something cololurful and pretty in this Pink Topaz strand. There are 50cts of graduated faceted rondelles on the strand. These are a perfect summer colour gemstone. 

You can find them here.

And finally I have saved my most favourite for last. This strand is 10cts of Black Diamond in graduated small nuggets. Everyone loves diamonds but I think the black diamond just adds a little something. 

You can find them here.

Don't forget to pop over to the JewelleryMaker website and catch a few shows and see the beautiful work done by their guest designers. You may find yourself inspired to buy something new that you have never worked with before.

The station is available to watch free online at www.jewellerymaker.com or on SKY 655, Virgin 756, Freesat 807 and Freeview 30. You can also watch past shows on the Jewellery Maker YouTubeChannel. Jewellery Maker ethically source their gemstones from all over the world in some of the most remote locations and for the best possible prices. They offer everything you could need to make a piece of jewellery to suit any style and taste and better yet they have the best guest designers live everyday to show you the different ways to use all of their amazing products. There are also workshops available on-site taught by the same great designers giving you the chance to work alongside your favourite designers and get great hints and tips for making beautiful jewellery. I have chosen a few of my favourite pieces from the Jewellery Maker website to share with you. 

Jewellery Maker offers a wide range of jewellery kits to suit all price ranges. Each kit is themed and comes with the findings needed to make any piece of jewellery you could want to try. My favourite at the moment has to be the SpringGarden Jewellery Kit. It comes with beautiful pastel shade beads and rose gold plated findings. These kits could keep you busy for quite awhile. 

On the Jewellery Maker website you are spoilt for choice when looking for gems and beads. They offer strands and single beads and range in price. Of course they are the best quality. My favourite strand are these beautiful BlackDiamond faceted roundels. The strand contains 5cts of Black Diamonds and the roundels are approx 2x1mm on an 8cm strand. But of course its hard to pick out a favourite here. I would be very happy having everything. 

Findings are my weakness when it comes to shopping for jewellery supplies so I am lost when looking around the Jewellery Maker website in the Findings section. They stock everything from headpins and catches to charms and spacer beads in every type of metal you could need or want. I just love the RoseGold Plated Filigree Pendant. It is made of 925 sterling silver. There are so many ways it can be used and would add such class and elegance to a piece of jewellery.

Who doesn't love a website that offers a great range of stringing materials? If like me you dabble in different styles of jewellery making you don't want to be running around trying to find things in different places. So check out the ThreadingMaterials Section of the Jewellery Maker Website. Here you can find silk threads and recycled Sari ribbons along with coloured copper wire and hemp cords to name just a few. The recycled SariRibbons are my favourite especially the Ash Grey colour. It is just so warm and beautiful on its own don't you agree?

Having a stash of chains is a must have for all jewellery makers and choosing the right one and make or break a piece of jewellery. So being able to get high quality chain in a range of finishes, link sizes and patterns in one place is brilliant. Jewellery Maker offer chain in aluminium right up to Sterling Silver along with different plated finishes. Like this RoseGold plated 925 Sterling Silver chain. Each link has a detailed pattern and measured approx 10mm.

Another of my favourite products is the LeatherJewellery Starter Kit. The kit has Soft Lamb Nappa Leather and the tools to get you started making beautiful leather jewellery including a dvd. 

I could go on for days about all the beautiful tools and products available but why not check out the website for yourself here.
