    Hi

    I have made some bead and crystal jewelery. I will post here when i have time to click pictures of them... Its very interesting to design jewelery and make them. I used to procure materials in bulks directly from the manufacturers of the beads and crystals here in Mumbai. The cost of the jewelery in the market is so high and the profit margin that the seller earns can make you laugh your way to the bank. Myself and my friend would conduct exhibitions. She was more in to the intricated designs and I was in to the funky ones. We made a great pair, but my job and other ties ups do not give me much time to pursue such hobbies. It consumes a lot of time and energy, especially if you are on the look of conducting exhibitions.

    Hi Mals,
    Nice to know that you were into exhibitions and all..I would love to get more information about suppliers when I go back to India.I understand that you could not get time to continue with your interest.This happens in India a lot that we are so busy with our lives that we do not get time and energy for our interests.

    Jewellery Making : Contemporary Bead Jewellery

    Hi IL,

    After days of working with stones, and chakris - we are now looking at some contemporary bead jewellery. My friend Sarayu, who also into doing jewellery, bought these beads from some local hawkers and transformed them into these. Do have a look and feel free to comment. She is also a part of IL, but not a active member though. So seeing these lovely comments, she wil probably be more active.

    The last muthu set was made byme for my aunty, who loves wearing chunky jewellery!!

    P.S: Did I mention Sarayu was my student !! He He!!

    Hey,

    The one which you made is very good. I wonder where you picked up that funky blue kundan's. That looks funky rich :) !!

    And the first one made by Sarayu is very good, did she do the pendant using gear wire?

    Cheers!
    -Anusha

    Hey

    Yes, Sarayu made the pendant herself, with gear wire.
