Handmade Pink
handmade birthday presents?
it was my friends birthday last weekend i want to get her a present but i want it to be handmade, i'm 13 so i can't do anything so complicated and i can't afford anything really expensive. My friend likes anything really - she loves pink and she's one of my kind of close mates so i do want to make something good. can you give me any ideas? i want like loads of idea so could you give me as many as possible pleaase.
P.S. my friend is a girl. x
-Jodie-
Jodie, we have been making paper beads at the nursing home where I volunteer. You can cut strips of magazine pages pictures about one inch wide and maybe 6 inches long (make a long skinny triangle out of this). Take a drinking straw (I prefer a smaller hole and use a coffee stirrer). Start with the end opposite the point and start winding this up on the straw. Add a bit of gluestick glue every now and then, especially as you get toward the end. When you are finished rolling up each bead, you can apply a little clear nail polish to give it a shine. ( I use clear embossing fluid, clear embossing powder and a heat gun.) You can also use Glossy Accents, available at craft stores. Sometimes people use the paper beads and also put bought beads every now and then on the ribbon or cord.
Here is a picture on my blog of a pendant I made using polymer clay for the pendant and the round beads. The long beads were made from paper, as I have described. Hope this gives you some ideas.

How to Create Handcrafted Jewelry Handmade Earrings Unique Bracelets Using Patinas
Attaining incredible layers of color on your handcrafted jewelry is easily achieved with the use of Liver of sulfur. This wondrous chemical compound oxidizes many different metals creating fantastic colors on your handmade earrings and unique bracelets making your handmade jewelry extraordinary. The varieties of colors that can be achieved range from gold to black and everything in between. No other chemical can produce such wide-ranging color patterns on the surface of a variety of metals including copper and silver.
Working in a well ventilated area is a definite must, outdoors is preferable. The odor of rotten eggs given off by liver of sulfur can be overwhelming if used in a closed area. It is easy to be put off by the smell but the results are simply amazing.
Liver of sulfur comes in two types. The liquid form can be used straight from the bottle, but the shelf life is unpredictable even when stored in a cool, dark place. Solid liver of sulfur is usually sold in small chunks, which are mixed as needed. For this reason, it is better to buy small amounts of the solid and make your solution mixing only what you need to create the most beautiful handmade jewelry.
For your solution, put a 1cm or 1/4 inch clump of solid liver of sulfur in a glass or plastic container with about 1 cup of water. The color of the solution should be a very pale yellow. A strong solution will develop the colors too fast to stop the process at your desired color while too weak of a solution can take too long and build a thick flaky crust. Experiment to find the best concentration for the metal you are working with to get the results you want.
Set up your workstation so you can easily go from one step to the next. Have a heat source, the liver of sulfur solution, cold water bath and finally a soapy baking soda rinse. The secret is to control the process is the solution strength and the temperature. The hotter solution will react faster and the colors will move more quickly from one color to the next. They roughly go from gold, pink, blue, purple, gray and finally black.
Before you begin, your metal handmade jewelry piece should be clean and free from dirt or oils from your hands. Wearing gloves throughout the process is preferable. Liver of sulfur will begin to react the instant you put handmade bracelets or handmade earrings into it. Let the color develop for a couple of seconds on the handmade jewelry piece, then put in the cold water to stop the patina forming. Repeat these steps until you reach the desired color. Finally, rinse the piece in soapy baking soda solution to remove any liver of sulfur residue that could continue to change the color of the patina. Do not rub the handmade jewelry piece with the baking soda mixture as any abrasive will damage the patina finish you have worked hard to create.
Liver of sulfur produces a patina finish on metal handmade jewelry but if not treated the effects will wear over time. Use a clear lacquer finish to protect your handmade earrings and handmade bracelets with their new patina finish. Be adventurous and watch how a little color can change your handcrafted jewelry into a masterpiece!
