Finding Online Jewelry Making Instructions

Online jewelry making instructions are incredibly easy to findin fact you'd be hard pushed to find a jewelry making website that doesn't feature at least one project complete with instructions that are free to use. Some sets of instructions are much more detailed and easier to understand than others though and it is this detailed type that you want to look out for whenever possible.

Finding online jewelry making instructions

The easiest way to find good jewelry making instructions is to do a quick internet search. Typing a generic phrase such as 'jewelry making instructions' will provide you with thousands of websites, each of which contains some form of instruction for making some type of jewelry. It might not be the type or style of jewelry you're interested in though, and so it will help to narrow your search with a more specific key phrase.

Decide what type of jewelry making instructions you're looking for e.g. necklace, bracelet, earrings, broach etc. and work from there. If you can narrow the search even further by adding what type of beads you're using or what style of jewelry you want to produce then this will make the search result even more relevant to you.

What to look for with regards to online jewelry making instructions

As mentioned above some sets of instructions for making jewelry are much better than others. The more detailed and precise the written instructions are the easier you will find them to follow. Simple jewelry projects will only normally require a photo of the finished piece and a numbered list of instructions for you to be able to make the item.

More intricate pieces of jewelry however may require further explanation of the instructions, and this is often done in any of the following ways:

1) With 3D diagrams produced by specialist computer software,

2) With hand drawn diagrams, if the person writing the instructions can do so,

3) With step by step photos so you can see how the piece progresses,

4) With a short video and accompanying commentary.

Any of these additional features add to the usability of a set of online jewelry making instructions and are therefore a big added bonus.

Other things to look for with regards to jewelry making instructions include a list of equipment and supplies you'll need, a difficulty rating for the piece of jewelry and an estimated time for making the item. The last two features aren't always included however an equipment and supply list should be there.

In conclusion

The usability of online jewelry making instructions differs hugely from one website to anotheran unfortunate fact that makes some beautiful pieces of jewelry virtually impossible to make. The only way to find the good instruction lists is to search for them, but don't worry - most are easily understood and followed, even by those who are just starting out in the fun-packed world of jewelry making.
