Make Your Own Beautiful Knotted Jewelry

By Ann Williams


There are plenty of fine jewelry stores in Kansas that specialize in knotted jewelry items. You will find beautiful knotted jewelry in these stores and they just look amazing. Besides that, you could also try making such jewelry items and once you master the technique you will not find it to be a difficult process.

The whole idea of knotting is to ensure that the beads or pearls do not rub on each other because when the rub together, they can get damaged and that's the last thing you want. Even if the strand breaks out, you will loose just a single pearl or bead. It not only looks beautiful, but also, its a good idea to save valuable items.

There are lots of different things that you can knot together like, stones, beads and pearls. Besides knotting a single item, you can use two different items like stones and the beads together. Just carefully select the thickness of the thread because when you knot two different items, their holes might be bigger or smaller from each other which means you have to knot them even more carefully.

The thread is available in different thickness levels and you have to make sure that the thickness you choose is just right for the purpose. The material for threads ranges from silk, nylon to others. The thickness you choose is usually dependent upon the hole size of the pearl that you're going to knot.

Its imperative to ensure that the bunch is made in the perfect place else you would need to do everything over again in just because once the bunch is made, it is difficult to re-try it once more. You would either wind up harming the string or breaking it so its better to begin once again in light of the fact that a harmed string would not give out any great outcomes, it'll look unpleasing to the eyes.

Mostly, these type of jewelry pieces are handmade therefore they are high in terms of their value. At the same time, the finishing quality plays an important role in determining its value because if the finishing is untidy then its hard to mark it as a high value product. You will require a lot of practice until you master the technique and are able to make flawless designs.

Besides selecting the right thickness for the thread, you have to carefully select a suitable color of the thread. The reason why the color is so important is because it should compliment the color of the pearls or stones that you are knotting. Any mismatch in colors could lead to devastating results therefore you need to make such decisions very carefully.

From necklaces to bracelets, rings and earrings, there are so many different things that you can make using this particular technique. Its all about mastering it so that all of your designs look beautiful and attractive. Another good thing about such jewelry pieces is that they are easy to care for and have a long life.
