Free Jewelry-Making Tutorials: A Collection of Pins, Bracelets, Necklaces & More


I've been very diligent recently and pulled together all my favorite free jewelry craft tutorials in one place.  On my Hubpages, I've put photos, links, and descriptions to some of my favorite tutorials for pins, brooches, bracelets, necklaces and even some jewelry display projects.  These tutorials use a variety of materials - beads, buttons, scrap fabric, polymer clay, and more - and are great for a variety of skill levels. 

Check it out and share it with your friends!

Paper Bead Bib Necklace Tutorial


Once again, I was craving some new jewelry.  And once again, I dug into my craft supplies and came up with something I really love :)

This bib necklace is flirty and fun, and great for Spring!  The necklace features two rows of beaded fringe made from paper beads.  If you've never made paper beads, you're in for a real treat.  Paper beads are easy to make (I've included a full tutorial with my directions) and can be made from any paper item - magazines, letters, catalogs, and even maps!


I chose some colorful images from my stash of Anthropologie catalogs to get some deep blues and greens to make my necklace.  This is a great recycling project!!
