Hande  Made It – Color your life!

Hello, This is Hande, from Istanbul, Turkey! My day time job is marketing but while I was living in Colorado for studying, I met with Etsy and I decided to make my chilhood dream comes true 🙂 I started with cross stitch products such as bookmarks, funny quotes with frame… After I moved back to Turkey again, My sister Asl? and I changed my shop to a jewel box! Cause We felt like We were enjoying more while we were playing with the beads! We are usually using an evil eye cause it is part of our culture and we can easily find various of evil eye beads and charms in Istanbul. Also neon colors and kind of ethnic style bracelets are our favorites too. We love to create colorful products cause it makes us feel that it is summer all the time 🙂

We have been trying to list new products all the time to keep our shop fresh! We are also working with some boutiques around the world such us South Africa, Australia, Germany, France, United States and more! That is also make us so happy to reach more people.

Book Review Wednesday: Bead Jewelry Making For Beginners

There is something very satisfying about bead jewelry making. It is one of those crafts that feels easy to start, but still gives you that lovely “I actually made this” moment when you finish a bracelet, necklace, or pair of earrings.

This week’s Book Review Wednesday pick is Bead Jewelry Making for Beginners, and unlike the trinket dish book where I was torn between our polymer clay and jewelry sections, this one sits very neatly here on Jewelry Making. Beads, findings, clasps, wire, earrings — no category confusion this time.

This looks like a useful beginner-friendly book for anyone wanting to move beyond simply stringing beads and start understanding how handmade jewelry actually comes together. Things like choosing beads, adding clasps, using findings properly, and making pieces that sit nicely are the little details that can make a beginner project feel much more polished.

I always think bead jewelry is a lovely craft for quick handmade gifts too. A simple bracelet, pair of earrings, or beaded necklace can be made fairly quickly, and it is easy to personalise with favourite colours, birthstones, charms, or leftover beads from the stash. And yes, if you have ever tipped a packet of seed beads across the table, you already know this craft comes with its own tiny chaos.

This book would suit new jewelry makers, teens, handmade gift makers, or anyone who has a bead stash tucked away and wants a little guidance getting started. Pair it with a basic set of jewelry pliers, beading wire or stretch cord, clasps, jump rings, and a bead mat, and you are ready to go.

My Shellie-style take? Bead Jewelry Making for Beginners looks like a practical, approachable starting point for anyone wanting to learn simple beaded jewelry techniques without feeling overwhelmed.
