DIY PROJECTS

Do you know these pearl shops? Those wonderful shops where all the walls are full of different beads in carefully divided little boxes? All sorted by color, in every shape and shade imaginable? I love these shops more than anything! In bead shops I forget time - or rather, I don't forget it - it simply doesn't exist and suddenly it's an hour later, I have a small plate with a variety of colorful beads in my hand and I can hardly bring myself to draw a line under it , not to browse any further and checkout. A perfect example of how to relax while shopping. Most of the time, when I buy them, I don't know exactly (or at all) what I want to do with the beads in detail. Sometimes, however, I already have a necklace or an earring in mind for which I specifically get everything I need. ...so much for these “dangerous” pearl shops... Gorgeous! Is there one of these in your city too? If so, maybe you know what I mean. Or you don't like shopping and prefer to shop online - that's of course also a good alternative.

Here you will find posts about DIY jewelry that I have made from all kinds of different beads. Get inspired!
