Accessorizing With Seashell Jewelry Is Definitely A Right Of Passage Through The Summer Months
When hot sunny days are merely a short-lived memory, keep summer memories alive by wearing seashell jewelry. Nothing is nearer to you and can remind you more of fun filled days on the beach than a special piece of seashell jewelry. Earrings, necklaces, pendants, rings and bracelets all come in a selection of seashell jewelry styles.
Seashell jewelry makes a great accessory to casual or formal wear especially whether you live in a resort area or just wish you lived there. For many beach resort areas, the beach and sea life are part of the culture, so including seashell jewelry in wardrobe accessories becomes a technique of life for most inhabitants or seasonal visitors. Try adding an easy cowrie necklace, longer kinds can be doubled to your preferred length. Ankle wristbands or regular bands are another fast way to display more fragile seashells. Seashell jewelry wristbands and necklaces may also be made from little pieces of brightly coloured seashells so you may coordinate them with the color of your outfit.
Don't think seashell jewelry has to always be made from natural seashells. There are plenty of options for seashell jewelry necklaces and rings made from sterling silver and gold as well. An easy starfish or seahorse pendant in shimmering sterling silver makes for a easy, but striking centerpiece to focus on your look. Rings come in silver or gold with a central seashell highlighted. Nautilus, conch, starfish and sand dollars make for pretty central highlights. Rings, necklaces and bracelets made of mum of pearl (the liner of oyster shells or abalone shells) also make for quality seashell jewelry pieces.
Charm bands make for great souvenirs and are a fast way to wear seashell jewelry. If you frequently visit beach resorts during your holidays, adding a new seashell jewelry charm to your band for each visit is a good way to recollect your adventures. Seashell jewelry charms are made of silver, yellow gold or white gold, and come in a variety of seashell shapes like scallops, oyster shells, conches, nautilus, whelk, clam and sand bucks. Seashell jewelry charms come in a never ending variety of seashell samples for your delight.
Seashell jewelry regularly incorporates other natural or natural-like elements like drift wood, sea glass, shark’s teeth and even rope. Wood beads carved from natural wood make for fascinating spacers when set between seashells on a seashell jewelry piece. Natural coloured or black fine rope also could be used and offers a fine complement to the nautical theme of seashell jewelry. Sea glass is another fragile beach part that might be combined with seashells in seashell jewelry to reach a nautical appearance. Shark’s teeth are a favorite of ladies and men alike, and make for a central focus as a stand-alone pendant.
Are you wanting to try to design and make your own seashell jewelry. Don't be intimidated, it’s simple. You can start with straightforward, simple designs and progress to more complicated pieces when you're feeling comfortable with the seashell jewelry making process. If you don't already have your own personal supply of seashells, Internet seashell supply shops are just a click away. There are plenty of selections from which to pick. Visit a local craft supply super-store for basic jewelry making supplies such as pliers, fishing line, clasps, spacers and krimpets to hold your seashells in place precisely where you would like them. Become arty in your seashell jewelry design and introduce some other elements such as wood beads, sea glass, and seashell metal or glass pendants.
Your imagination is your one limitation when planning and making your own seashell jewelry. Whether you are making designs for your own private use, or to give as gifts to pals and family, seashell jewelry is a novel way to display and appreciate the ocean’s best treasures. Remember, don’t be frightened to mix'n'match styles and design elements. Using natural elements together with a few metal or sea glass pieces, adds beauty and interest to your finished piece. Whether or not you are a do-it-yourself designer or merely looking to purchase a souvenir of your summer holiday, seashell jewelry is a good way to infuse that nautical panache in your day to day fashion for a true designer look.
