For most projects you will need a pair of jewelry pliers with a flat inside edge, plus general items such as superglue (I use E6000) and scissors. There may be other basic tool requirements on top on that, but usually the DIYs are for completing by beginners at home.To make your own jewelry means that you can keep up-to-date with fashion trends for much less money, plus you can make accessories that are completely unique to you. If you see a necklace, bracelet or pair of earrings you like in a high street shop then you can use it for inspiration to make your own homemade version.Costume jewelry is often 'mixed media', meaning that it's made from a combination of different materials such as metal, clay, fabric, plastic etc. There aren't really any rules for what you can and cannot use so it's time to put your creativity and imagination into action!Long Tassell EarringsFabric and Mixed Media Jewelry 1Foreign Coin Charm BraceletWoven Friendship BraceletsMini Glass Bottle PendantsPVC & Rhinestone BibRecycled T-Shirt BraceletStudded FlowersPurple & Gold Chain NecklaceBrass Locket NecklaceFloating Rhinestone NecklaceDIY Ring How-Tos and IdeasDIY Multichain NecklaceCreative Jewelry You Can Make YourselfLeather Lanyard BraceletDecorative Ribbon Necklace
