Jewelry by Beth Lauren

Oh yeah, that was some great jewelry. Beth Lauren is such an amazing designer, she has her unique style.

I like the black rhinestone, the bracelets, but the necklaces are a little weird, some of the bigger pendents look like medals. Beth Lauren using the "Ford model" image to promote herself, so good for her. Let her be an inspiration to all of you, that with Youtube, some hot models and a decent product, your dreams can come true.

Jewelry Making: Wire-Wrapped Pendant

Want to save $150 on wrapped pendant ? It's real, just watch this video.
I have to say, this video is the most entertaining jewelry making video on WEB!

The wire used in show is gold-filled wire with a thickness of gauge 20. You can use the basic technique in this video as long as the rock is flat. If it is spherical then try to build a cage embracing the stone with 3 or more artistically bent wire columns and possibly 2 bales (one on each side) for an east to west presentation. At that point the pendant is structurally round and you are left (hopefully) with extra wire that you literally can do anything with. The goal is to embellish, most commonly twisting the wire to resemble vines.
The pendant wrapping are a great idea, right?
