General Jewelry Tips for 2008 - The Do's and Don'ts
Jewelery is a personal ornament, such as a necklace, ring, or
bracelet, made from gemstones, precious metals or other substances. If
cosmetic is for the body, shoes are for the feet, jewelries are for the
clothes. Jewelries can make you look trendy, classic or even cheap.
Proper use can also make any clothing look expensive.
Categories of jewelry
1. Fine - is made from gold, platinum, fine silver, combined with precious and semi-precious stones.
2. Costume - is made from lower cost materials such as metals with gold and or silver finishes, and from unusual materials such as wood, plastic and beads. Costume jewelries are usually combinations of glass, synthetic or some semi-precious stones.
Do's: * Wear contrasting shape all the time if you have a round body built.
* Wear ivory and tortoiseshell, but only if they're fake.
* Assemble a collection of good, basic costume jewelry:
- a pair of matching gold bangle bracelets, or a gold cuff not wider than an inch and a half.
- Link necklaces in varying lengths.
- a pair of simple gold hoop earrings, or gold button-style clip-ons
* Buy a two-tone watch so that you can wear it with silver or gold jewelry.
* Keep your jewelry organized. Even egg cartons or plastic silverware trays will do.
* Wear large earrings if you're a large woman--you're among the few who can carry them off.
* Anything dangling such as earrings make a body silhouette slim.
* Jewelry is an effective focal point of the viewer's eye to distract attention away from any body flaws.
* Gold tones fit almost any skin color.
Dont's... * Mixing real diamonds from fake diamonds will make the real look fake.
* Don't overdo.
* Wear jewelry that jingles when you walk.
* Pierce your ears more than twice in each lobe. Never wear earrings so heavy that they stretch your lobes.
*Mix your metals. Silver jewelry is out of the question if your jacket has gold buttons.
* Wear rhinestones before 6 p.m.
* Squeeze a large neck into a dainty choker. It just doesn't work.

No
matter what crafty things that you decide to do, always pruchase the
very best materials that you can..While following the instructions for
your particular craft don't ever be afraid to add your own personal
touch.. A pattern is only a guide..who knows..maybe your unique touch
may inspire a new trend..Micheals and Joann's have alot of inspiring
craft ideas.. I go every now and then for beading supplies and usually
want to load the cart with one of everthing..check out a place called fire mountain gems
on the web, they have tons of jewelry and clothing embellishment ideas
and you can request a free catalgue that is huge. Happy Crafting..

- My tip is don't buy into the racket. Don't get a machine, or buy ready-made, to do what you could do yourself. For example, it is a lot of fun and very rewarding to make shapes out of fabric and paper for embelleshing scrapbook pages, even though the "industry" would like you to believe you should buy theirs and then just assemble it. Never assemble when you can create.
But I do believe in using patterns until you acquire enough skills to design your own stuff. Browse the craft section of the pattern books at Jo-Anns, and make some cool things for your home.

- Learning to dressmake is a fabulous thing. To understand the way a garment is constructed frees you up from having to follow patterns. I'm in the SCA and live in awe of those people who can look at a medieval painting, then go home and make the outfit. Mosaic is a fun thing too. I've only done one chest of drawers, but I had fun and now have the skills to re-tile the bathroom or kitchen if it ever needs doing. :)
I think your first step ought to be the craft/ DIY shelf of your local library. There'll be craft books on all sorts of things, even things you've never heard of. Your second step could be to join a craft group. I recommend the SCA (http://www.sca.org) if you are into medieval crafts and things, there are a lot of people doing a lot of different things who'll be happy to swap notes with you. Otherwise, your town probably has a spinners and weavers guild, a knitting group, a quilters group, and who knows what else. Do a google search using the words "guild" or "association" and that should bring them up.

Getting a vertical hood piercing
AppId is over the quota
AppId is over the quota
January 4, 2005By: Bob WhiteheadThe most popular female genital piercing is the vertical hood piercing. It’s much easier to perform, less anatomically specific, and it isn’t as painful as other genital piercings. Vertical hood piercings are ideal for women who want a genital piercing that provides stimulation. Because vertical hood piercings don’t require a specific amount of skin or a certain anatomy, they are less rare and it is easier

Wood jewelry boxes come in many shapes and forms you have a vast selection when it comes to these items and you are sure to find something for just about everyone. This includes kids as well. When considering presents you may want to look into wood jewelry boxes.
I love the armoire style wood jewelry boxes that serve as a piece of furniture in them selves. Unfortunately, I have very little need for such an item but I can give vicariously to my sister who is a regular jewel horse. She collects tons of the stuff. I decided to purchase a wood jewelry box that is freestanding and large to accommodate her needs.
This little piece of furniture is amazing. I chose a cherry stain for the finish to match the rest of her bedroom furniture. The wood jewelry box has places to hang necklaces and slots for rings as well as earrings. My sister will be well organized and hopefully it will help her to get ready quicker than she normally does.
Other wood jewelry boxes are much smaller. I chose one that looks almost like a cigar humidor for my husband. This men’s jewelry holder is excellent for keeping his valuables organized and separate from mine. We used to share a space but that got old very quickly. This container is clean and masculine in design and it has interesting spaces for his watches. This was the major selling point as far as I was concerned.
My daughter is approaching the teenage years like a freight train and I thought that a wood jewelry box would be perfect for her. I chose a musical version that is painted entirely in white. This beautiful item has a Victorian feel and look with a lovely red felt lining. I can hear her playing the music each time she opens the box.
Three of my favorite people have each received wood jewelry boxes from me as gifts. I can attest that each of them loves their present and they wouldn’t trade them for the world. No matter who is on your shopping list you may want to consider wood jewelry boxes.
