You may be in the market for a piece of fine jewelry for yourself, your mother, betrothed, or best friend. You may also find delight in a handmade piece made by that special someone. No doubt you value and want to care for what you have. This article will provide some tips and tricks to help you make the most it.
Sites like Etsy have a wide selection of handmade jewelry. You can find many unique, one of a kind pieces, but be careful. Some sellers may use pendants or other findings that can be widely purchased in bulk or from craft stores. Read reviews or search for similar items to make sure you’re getting the best value.
One “old fashioned” piece of jewelry that you might want to reconsider wearing, is a watch. Younger people are used to using their cell phones or other electronics to tell time, but in certain situations, it may be more appropriate or more professional to wear a nice watch. You don’t want to be constantly checking your watch at a job interview or a formal event, but wearing one sends a certain message.
Diamonds are the perfect gemstone to buy for your wedding jewelry. The beauty of these stones is not only how they look, but also that they can be worn again for almost any occasion. Long, dangle earrings can be used for any dressy occasion, as can a diamond tennis bracelet.
If you’re planning a traditional wedding, then you can’t go wrong with pearls! You can have them on your tiara, wear them as stud or dangle earrings, have a gorgeous “Y” necklace adorned with them, or even a pearl and Swarovski crystal bracelet. Blue pearls are an excellent way to get really traditional, or borrow your Mother’s or Grandmother’s single strand necklace.
Alright, now you are in business! Whether you are in the market for a piece of fine jewelry or find delight in something handmade, take care of it so that it lasts. Use the tips and tricks in the above article to help you enjoy your choices for a long time!
