Do you think that creating your own unique jewelry is difficult. That's not true! Take a look at "what's in store. Get ideas from current trends and improvements. Not only copy, create your own design, adding a touch of individual creativity. Also, the flight to the beautiful designs and color combinations of ancient cultures. Egyptians, Greeks, Mayans, Indian , African and Chinese cultures all had great traditions of jewelry design. Their designs were often very bold with wonderful use of color and shape, I think the Mayan design using turquoise and gold, or Chinese green jade. These classic looks never popular.
There are so many sources of inspiration, look at the ads of beautiful jewelry in magazines or on the Internet. Also pay attention to your wardrobe and take your color ideas for your own clothes (or shoes and handbags). Relax, let your imagination and inspiration. You'll wonder why you ever doubted!
When planning the design, there are some important aspects that affect the overall concept in mind -
The desired effect - a dramatic, subtle, simple, bold, glamorous, rustic or shelf, or tribal, shiny or glossy, colorful and fun.
Color balance - most of the time, contrasting light and dark, dark.
Effect of color - on the contrary, free, balanced and neutral. You can look at a color wheel to understand the effects of different colors. Never forget that nature knows best, just look at a lot of color combinations of plants, flowers and birds and rainbows.
Design - formal (with symmetry and balance), informal (more random placement of pearl), installation (a variety of shapes and sizes).
Materials - glass, crystal, metal, wood, acrylic or plastic.
Texture - smooth, cut, engraving.
Form - always glass beads, a variety of forms.
Size - small, medium, large, or a combination of sizes.
Surface Quality - reflections, cut, transparent, opaque, pearl.
Balancing size and weight:
One suggestion is to use a larger and more central element in the front focal point of the ball. Or create your own function, provided some balls together. In addition, the large beads create a fluidity and ease. (Perhaps, beads, glass beads or metal balls) the use of Spacer beads will focus on the individual more "design" and pearls can make some much cheaper (if you use sterling silver beads). Write clumsy to use more casual pieces with much larger balls or other opinions that some balls for delicate parts. Keep in mind, comfort and heavy beads or beads with angled edges.
