In my
childhood years, I and my friends used to make accessories made from beads. It
was cute, creative and artistic. The best thing about having beaded jewelries
is being a unique fashion trendsetter because you have your own design and
style. Isn’t it?
At
first, was just working from a bead accessory business owner and paid P0.70 –
P5.00 per bracelets made. And then I realized that they’re paying me unfairly because
they’re selling per bracelet for P30.00 above. So I thought, why not start a
business like that when I know how to make one? It just really needs to have a
small capital, hard work and unique designs.
So what
I did is to research, study beading tutorials, getting inspiration designs and innovate.
Why not?
Below, I
would like to share with you a jewelry set made from beads and how it was made.
I got it from a bead crafting website – Prima
Bead, I downloaded the PDF file with the beading tutorials for your
inspiration as well because I myself have been very much inspired with this not
because it can be a source of income but also, creative, fun and cool to learn.
This
jewelry set is called “Enchanted Forest”
