There are many types of jewellery at different price margins. My favourite is the pendant necklace. I have been running Base n Bling Parties where each guest gets to make a pendant for $20, which is very affordable. It is a little cheaper if you buy the pieces in bulk. The components of the necklace are: chain ($10), pendant ($8 or $10 for a pack of three), clear glass cover ($3 or $5 for a pack of three), charms ($7 or $8 for a pack of six) and icon sticker ($7 for a sheet of 28-32). If you have many gifts to make, this is definitely the way to buy your supplies. Throw in a bottle of Liquid Glass ($12) and Christmas is SORTED!
Here is a picture from Hey Girl Scrap.com. You can see the creator is ready to gift a lot of crafty friends with their own beautiful necklaces!
For a slightly different (and even quicker) handmade gift, you could choose to create a cuff. I have been running classes for these are $15 per person. The components you will need to complete a cuff are the oval cuff ($8, either gold or silver), the oval glass covers ($5 a pack of three), and an icon sticker ($7 for a sheet of 28-32).
I have seen some other beautiful ideas with our Base n Bling items too. Here is a photo of the beautiful fridge magnets created by a sister consultant - Angela Mansfield - in the USA. She has used our bases, icons, covers and charms, but added strong magnets to the back with Liquid Glass. What a beautiful idea!
I have also seen our charms used frequently on cards, as drawer pulls on 3D boxes, and as wine charms. They're actually very versatile wee items.
