Make Arts and Crafts Jewelry Flowers from Clay



You don't necessarily need metal or any fancy tools to make beautiful arts and crafts jewelry items. For example, all you need to make a jewelry flower is a bit of clay.

As you'll see in the video, making the flower is quite simple. You just take a bit of clay and roll it in between your fingers to make the center of the flower.

You make the petals in much the same way and then join them with the center. Make sure all of your petals overlap with each other to make your flower more realistic.

Once you have all the pieces together, you can begin shaping the petals. Give them shape by curling them down from the edges, and you'll have a complete jewelry flower.

Shopping Online for Arts and Crafts Jewelry

arts and crafts jewelry

The Internet has the best selection of arts and crafts jewelry you will ever find. You can browse hundreds of galleries for the piece you are looking for.

Using a search engine, try looking for pages with the keywords "art nouveau" or "art deco" as well as "arts and crafts." These phrases all tend to pull up galleries that offer similar folk-inspired pieces.

You can even find galleries that specialize in jewelry pieces of a certain time period. For example, some galleries only offer arts and crafts pieces from the 19th century.

Another option is to narrow your search by region or country of origin. British arts and crafts pieces are especially popular, but you can also find items from other countries.
