I'm starting a new hobby - jewelry making!

December 13, 2025 7:54am CST
I'm a creative person and I've always been interested in jewelry making, I just never gave it a chance. Now, however, I am diving head first into it! I've already ordered several beads, tools, storage and other supplies I'll be needing from Amazon for a fairly decent price. The real deal I found, though, was on Ebay. I found a listing for 6 pounds of mixed beads, charms, and pendants for only $20 plus shipping. My hope is to watch youtube tutorials and become good enough to sell my creations on Etsy! For now, I am on day 5 of sorting through that 6 pound bag. I'm not sure how long it will take me but once I finally am able to make some nice pieces of Jewelry, I'll be sure to post photos on here for all of you to see.

Yes, they do. That is also a bit intimidating to me. Like, what if the stuff I make isn't good enough.

Me too, I'm really excited. I've already watched a couple of tutorials on some easy but really beautiful pieces and I know I can do them. I am going to start with the easy ones and work my way up.
