Sterling Silver Hand
Where can I get sterling Silver Jewelry supplies?
I have an allergy to anything besides sterling silver and I would like to make some of my own jewelry. I would also like to make some jewelry for friends, but I know some of my friends have sensitive skin as well. Is there a place where I can find sterling silver and/or hypo-allergenic jewelry supplies? Also, are beads okay, or should I be wary of those too? A place that isn’t too expensive and where it might be possible to buy in bulk, would be nice. Please help me out. Christmas is coming up and I think it would be cool to give something hand-made and original.
I’m mostly looking for the chains and clasps. Also, I’m a beginner so if there is a good, easy to read book or something please let me know?
A few places that I can think of right now would be:
http://www.firemountaingems.com
http://www.bluemud.com
http://www.rings-things.com
Also, you might consider joining a bulk buying group, should the beading bug bite ya… buying with a group makes things a LOT cheaper! Let me know if that’s something you are interested in, I can point you in the right direction.
As for the sensitive skin issue- it varies. I have sensitive skin, but the only real issue for me is ear wires. The have to be SS or gold/ gold-filled. I haven’t had any problems with pearls or glass beads, etc. resting on my skin, but YMMV.
If there is anything that I can help you with, just contact me. Good luck, and I am sure your friends will treasure their gifts! They are lucky to have a friend like you~
Happy Beading!
