Every jewelry maker or jewelry lover I have ever met would love to know where to find quality sterling silver and buy at the lowest price possible.

I mean think about it.  Do you want the best quality and finest workmanship jewelry anywhere, to be able to proudly use it as the backbone for your creations, and then to get it at the lowest price anywhere?

Do you want to make fine jewellery to compliment the latest designer handbags and the latest high fashion, then you need to start with the best findings available today, but that does not mean that you have to pay full price for your foundational pieces.

Once your find a good source for  wholesale silver jewellery, all you have to do at that point is supply the creativity and the putting  it together.  Granted that takes talent and effort.  But what I am saying, is I have paid too much for findings and other jewelry components in the past, and it makes it look like I am overcharging for my work, when in reality I was ending up with less profit.

In addition,  I know it took me longer to actually sell those specific pieces of jewelry because I couldn’t lower the price any lower because of what I had already invested.  Then there is the issue of putting so much hard work in on a piece of jewelry only to see it completed and realize the findings are less than stellar.  It kinda takes the wind out of my sails…you know what I mean?

If you have been reading my blog you would probably guess where I am going to suggest to go to get all of your wholesale silver jewellery.  I don’t care if you are looking for sterling silver findings, or sterling silver charm bracelets, charms, etc.

The answer is the same.  Yes, The Charm Factory.  I mean it is a no brainer.  You get .925 sterling silver, it is in the United States which helps our economy, they offer free shipping for orders over $25.00.

The prices of course are the lowest anywhere because they are the factory that makes it..no middle people to raise the price. They also sell the engraved customized jewelry tags that really take your jewelry to the next level.  It just makes your work so much more professional.

If you are looking for a sterling silver charm, letter beads, earrings findings, sterling silver findings, baby shoe charms, etc……here is your source.  I don’t know what more you could really ask for.

What would you consider a fantastic source for wholesale silver jewellery? Can you think of any other criteria?

Of course, I know there are certain situations such as when you’ve found the love of your life that you wouldn’t want to go the wholesale route, in such instances I can highly recommend cushion cut engagement rings.

I have seen a few different wooden wolf charms on the market, but I just love the one that the Charm Factory makes.   It is such a powerful wolf image, yet it is a lightweight and detailed charm.  I think it is just adorable.

It is important to me that charms are  made using quality craftsmanship where you can definitely tell what the charm represents.   I, for one, don’t want a charm on my charm bracelet that is so poorly made that people have to ask me what it is suppose to be.

It’s the same feeling you get at Halloween when your costume sucks, and the whole night everyone keeps asking you, what are you supposed to be?

YUCK!  I don’t know about you, but it made me feel like dang…. My costume must not be all that great if you can’t even tell what I am!    You know what I talking about, don’t you?

There are some wooden wolf charms that are machine cut, and, to me, give off an energy of cold lifelessness.   And, then there are some that are hand carved and they are a little better.

But, to me, the high quality of the laser burned Twilight wooden wolf charm that the Charm Factory makes is so superior to anything else anywhere.

Something else that is kind of neat about the laser burned wooden wolf charm is that when you hold the charm up to your nose you can still smell the slight hint of burned wood.  I don’t know, it kind of makes it seem more authentic.

Of course, the wooden wolf charms look Fantastic on a charm bracelet, and I have also seen them used as a necklace.

The other day, I saw some silver wolf charms that were being uniquely used.  These were the sterling silver howling wolf charms, but they were being used as  zipper pulls on  jackets.

Or, you could also attach the Twilight Wolf Charms to backpacks, key chains, or even to decorate the perfect present.  Charms can be used for scrap booking, wine glasses, cell phone straps ..etc.  Be sure to find a good wholesale silver jewellery source  so you can save.  You will love the versatility and excitement of charms once you start collecting them

What if you could get a Twilight inspired bracelet at factory prices, but have it customized with your personally selected favorite Twilight jewelry, and on top of that,  have it delivered really FAST?

Not half bad, huh?  Custom ordering direct from the factory allows you to do all this and more.

Being able to custom order a Twilight bracelet direct from the factory, where they are actually made, gives you the opportunity to go several different Twilight routes.

You can go with the original Twilight bracelet, or what is sometimes called the Team Switzerland bracelet because it is neither pro Jacob nor pro Edward.

Those charms would, of course,  represent events that occurred throughout the movies and book, and would include charms referring to all the central characters and the memorable scenes.

Then there is a Team Edward Twilight bracelet.  If you are behind Edward all the way, then you might want to have your bracelet comprised of nothing but Team Edward charms.

There are Edward lockets, Edward hearts, Bella hearts, a Bella locket, a Team Edward charm, a clear Crystal heart charm, a Be Safe charm, a Piano charm, etc.  Attach any or all of these charms to a beautiful sterling silver bracelet and you have one incredible Team Edward Twilight bracelet.

On the other hand, if you are a Team Jacob fan, then, a Team Jacob Twilight Bracelet is what you will want. Your bracelet, of course, will have nothing to do with Edward or anything that represents him.

Therefore, you would want a Wooden Wolf charm, a Motorcycle charm, a Truck charm, a Team Jacob charm, Jacob heart charms, or a Jacob locket attached to a stunning sterling silver charm bracelet. Any combination, or all of these charms would make a beautiful Team Jacob Twilight bracelet.

What a super deal!  Order direct from the factory and save time and money, and get the exact Twilight Bracelet that you really want.  There isn’t a minimum, so no worries.  You can order one or several, it’s up to you.  But, I would order now before the insane Twilight rush…

What about dealing with the actual factory that makes it?  Oh yeah, and how about it not breaking the bank either?  Kinda a revolutionary idea, huh?

Given the choice between a t-shirt and a piece of quality jewelry, I will take jewelry every day of the week!   Don’t get me wrong, I love t-shirts…but there is no comparison,  jewelry is my favorite.

I absolutely adore the beautiful sterling silver Twilight bracelets. From the factory, you can buy Twilight bracelets that are already made-up, or you can select your own charms, the ones that have special meaning to you, and come up with a totally different look and feel.

That’s what I did.  I couldn’t decide who I liked more, Edward or Jacob, so my bracelet reflects both Jacob and Edward.

You probably think that I paid quite a bit, actually, I paid less than if I had purchased an inferior stainless steel bracelet at the local mall.

I got a custom sterling silver bracelet with the charms I wanted assembled on the bracelet, delivered to my door, all for under $40.00.  Good deal, huh?

However, I realize everyone is not a Team Jacob fan, so I need to stay open minded.  So, there are, of course, Team Edward bracelets to choose from too.

Or, for those who simply can’t decide between Edward and Jacob, you can also select a custom Twilight bracelet , one that represents Bella, Jacob, and Edward.

My friends and family were all raving about the book and movie, so  I finally watched the movie this past weekend.  Now, like all of them, I am eagerly anticipating the upcoming sequel.

Of course, I already knew that  the movie was about a high school girl who moves to the rainy state of Washington where she falls in love with a drop-dead-gorgeous fellow student, who just happens to be a vampire.

I know, I know, it sounds kind of wacky; but, really, it was a good movie.  However, when individuals have seen the movie and also read the book, they say the book is definitely head and shoulders superior to the movie.

The Twilight Jewelry that is literally flying out of stores is the crystal heart.  It signifies the scene when Edward took Bella to the top of the mountain to show her how he sparked like crystals in the sunlight.  Later, Edward actually gives Bella a crystal charm for her charm bracelet.

Another top Twilight Merchandise seller is the wooden wolf  charm.  It signifies the part in the book when Edward carved a wooden wolf and put it on a charm bracelet for Bella.

The truck, of course, signifies the truck that Bella’s dad bought from Jacob’s dad to give to Bella. Remember, it was the same old beat-up red truck that Edward, using his supernatural strength to save Bella’s life, jumped in front of.

The hottest and newest pieces of Twilight jewelry are the sterling silver heart charms with Swarovski ruby crystals (one with Bella’s name, one with Edward’s, and one with Jacob’s).

Crystal Heart

Wood Wolf Charm

Twilight Heart Charm

No Twilight jewelry list would be complete if you forgot to mention the ever famous Twilight bracelets!  There is a Twilight bracelet in every combination imaginable.  You can basically customize a charm bracelet to include the character of the movie that you like best.  You can also choose a little Bella, a little Edward, a little Jacob to give it a true Twilight flair.  Whatever you desire.

For a good selection of  Twilight Jewelry, you can check out this store on Ebay.  They offer Free shipping in the United States, regardless if you order one item or twenty items.

These bracelets and necklaces are really neat for many reasons. One big reason is you can customize them. Secondly, you can make something that looks great and have little jewelry making experience.

They can have your name, your loved ones names, awareness themes, deployment bracelets, you name it.. and you can make it!

As I said, you can make them any way you want, but they all contain some basics:

* The  Alphabet Beads spelling out your name, your loved ones, or a specific cause.

* Some kind of clasp to connect it to

* Some kind of cording or chain to string the beads.

Additional items you might want to add to your bracelet or necklace:

Basic Information On Alphabet Beads

Basic Info On Sterling Silver Findings

Letter Beads For Jewelry

Gather all of your supplies together before you start:

1. Measure the length of the bracelet you are creating to get the right
size, or use a piece of string around the wrist to mark and measure. Make sure
that it is a little loose. You don’t want it too tight.

Cut a length of stringing wire that is the desired
bracelet length plus at least 2″ extra. (If you want a finished bracelet that
is 8″, you’ll need to start with a 10″ piece of wire.)

2. Next, make a loop with the wire. String a crimp bead on the piece of cut wire.
Slide the wire through a wire guardian. Take the end of the wire as it comes
out of the guardian and slip it though the crimp bead as well. Pull to tighten
so that the crimp bead is tight against the wire guardian, and you don’t have
excess wire hanging out of the crimp bead. Use the beading pliers to squeeze the
crimp bead closed.

3. Begin stringing your beads. Be sure to lay out your design before you begin. You can put spacer beads, Swarovski crystals, or group all the sterling silver alphabet beads together.

4. Once you’re pleased with the design, place the second crimp bead after your last
decorative bead (you should have approximately 2″ of wire left) and then slide
the second wire guardian on just like before. Carefully take up the slack, being
sure not to pull the wire too tight, so the bracelet can move and bend, but also
not so loose that you see the wire between the beads. Now squeeze the crimp bead
closed and then trim any excess wire away.

5. The last step is to attach the clasp either a lobster or toggle clasp to the right side of the
bracelet using jump rings. You can also attach a 1″ extender chain on the left
side to adjust the bracelet for comfort.
