Chic and refined Jewelries that will not leave anyone indifferent - new stunning Inspiration with a glitter of Swarovski Crystals

A twist - that will change everything :)

In the next tutorial, you will see how we create a very fashionable and festive look with basic and simple components.
I really would like to recommend reading this article till the end - as there will be a twist - that will change everything :).
And don't worry, as always there will be an information and tips about making process.

 

 

How to save money and time on soldering and plating process...

We are talking a lot about the ideas of Cup Chain's products.
How a few small components, which cost a few dollars, can turn into an impressive masterpiece of jewelry that could be sold for hundreds of dollars.
I am talking about How to save money and time on soldering and plating process, that is particularly significant when we are talking about jewelries. So, the speciality of today's elements and generally of all Cup Chain's products (yes, I know, I will say it again and again), is that you can purchase plated and soldered in high quality components, the simplicity of application of which is just impress.

 

 

Magnificent look that can not be ignored!

I especially like the usage of small crystals. It is very exhausting and hard to work with them - but as a result - we have the perfect jewelries, that in a close-up consideration you will notice a lot of small details that complement a unique and magnificent look that can not be ignored.
Trust me, that once you understand the principle of how to connect chains and bases you will be surprised of the options that can be created only with a slight change of components.

 

 

Colors and Platings that we used in this Inspiration:

Crystal Clear, Crystal AB, White Opal Swarovski Crystal's colors in different sizes.

Yellow Gold and Rose Gold metal plating color.

Ofcourse you can use another crystal and plating colors.

 

 

 

Gluing the Crystals:

As we said, placement is simple and requires no prior knowledge. In order to embed you will need:

  • A stick with wax (can also be used with a toothpick) and soft wax to catch the small crystals.

  • Glue - There is a number of adhesives that can be used for the adhesion of small crystals. We recommend using Swarovski glue number CG 500 (A+B) You can read more about the glue technique here.

  • Syringe with a pin tip to put the glue inside the small hols of the castings.

 

 

Because the crystals are very small and delicate to work required, it is recommended to use a dedicated tray, which can be easily converted the crystals, so that their Chaton edge will be turning up then they can be picked up easily. It is definitely a time saver (You can also be used on A4 paper page to do the coup). 

All the information about Swarovski Glues you can find here.

 

 

The Yellow Gold and Rose Gold platings:

The color of Rose Gold is no longer the color of romantic jewelry, but a deep Rose color with a sweet, feminine yet modern look that have swapped the entire fashion industry and even more.Here you can see an Inspiring Evening look with the truly gorgeous natural yellow gold and rose blushing metallic color, with a gentle touch of Swarovski crystal colors, that emphasizes how glamorous this colors really are.

 

 

I promised a twist - and here it is:
We call it "HIDDEN CONNECTORS". This connectors - are hidding the connecting points between the elements that always stand out and creating more complete and clean look. It is simple as it is, but it creats the differance. In stead of regular loops - we suggest you to decorate your jewelry with hidden connector and make your jewelries more harmonious.

Be Unique!

And have fun creating with Cup Chain Jewelry:)
