The language of the items
I invite you to explore the world of the game with me. Maybe you want a piece designed or are trying to explain someone What type of accounts or style of that special piece you are looking for and do not know the terms, or what you are trying to say. It can be very frustrating at times, and have Here are some useful tips!
The game world is no secret, but like any other craft or special trade, which has a jargon a class by itself. The first thing most of you should know is that the accounts are mostly described, orderly, and spoke in millimeters. "We all remember math? There are a multitude of accounts, and most of them start at 2 mm and may continue up to 14 mm. Some places offer graphics to show the real size accounts in millimeters. The most popular terms that are heard are those of 4 mm, 6 mm and 8 mm pearls and crystals in the ribbons. Of course there are many sizes grains are much larger than in millimeters, circular, rectangular, octagon, and so you get the picture.
Another important matter that is used for most craft custom made jewelry for weddings, is the famous home of Austrian crystal, Swarovski. I'm sure many of you are familiar with the name Swarovski, and through changing business designs, Swarovski crystal beads out, which come in an infinite variety of shapes and colors. The most popular accounts Swarovski see very often in custom designs for weddings or jewelry and accessories are the Bicones. They come in various sizes that start by 3 mm for the most part and the end usually in 12mm or 14mm. They are shaped like a cone short on both sides, and have cut facets to catch the light and shine like no other. Come in many different colors, but the most popular are the color of transparent glass and Crystal AB color. The color of the glass at the Tupi is unclear, yet calls the beautiful light, color Crystal AB, shines almost blue with a reflective coating, which captures all the colors of light, and is even more pronounced sheen to it. No great mystery is revealed about the two differences in the crystals and not call AB AB.
Other Swarovski pearl that is fairly common is the pearl of Swarovski. They also come in many sizes and shapes, as counterpart, the crystals of Tupi. However, it is a type of glass that has a scratch resistant layer, and no color bleed into your skin, with perfumes or oils. This material is an excellent choice for many handcrafted pieces Bridal or special occasion to stand the test if time and wear. These crystals are extremely difficult and can take a lot of abuse but are beautiful to wear. I am a big fan of Swarovski and its product is simply beautiful and the glow that emulates catch the light when it is simply stunning! Most Beaders who use them will agree that are of a superb quality of work and create fabulous jewelry. Of course the ever popular Mother of all pearls, freshwater pearls, which are also available in a variety of shapes and sizes, is a fine material for work.
Of course, there are many other popular accounts you will see in developing supply stores, flea markets and online service providers worldwide, such as Czech glass beads, which are also beautiful and come in many shapes and sizes. The varieties of starting materials is amazing. One has only to explore the possibilities!
We have barely scratched the surface with the terms and many varieties of starting materials, but hope to have begun in a journey to discover a new world of designing and creating beautiful jewelry and accessories with endless options for any special occasion of her!
