DIY Gemstone Crystal Chip Bracelet Making Kit

You will receive at least 20g of the gemstone chips, enough elastic to make the bracelet with some spare, a pretty silver coloured organza bag and a tag naming the gemstone. If you decide to select a charm you will also recieve the one you select attached to the outside of the bag. You would just need to add a drop of suitable glue to secure the knot.

THIS IS NOT A TOY

Beads are not suitable for under 3's and are a choking hazard. Due to small parts children should be supervised. An adult needs to apply the glue.

The moonstone chips can be one of two colours dependent on what the wholesaler sends I am afraid it isn't a choice but what I have been sent . The malachite I have at present has a larger size range as I cannot get my normal chips. Please remember that chips are small and some are thinner than others. I am linked in with the different colours of gemstones as colour has always been something to fascinate me. My listings and infrastructure has evolved over around 10 years and I try to offer as much choice as I can.

The number of chips vary with the gemstone type and size. The chips are weighed out and placed in the bags by either myself or someone who helps me in the UK, when an order comes in. I buy the the chips in on strands so they all have holes and we remove the strands to allow for easy weighing out, this is all time consuming and reflected in the price.

If you decide to include a charm the options are a Moon Natural Quartz Crystal charm, with platinum tone brass findings, 21~24x12~14x5~6mm, hole: 2x7mm or a Heart Natural Quartz Crystal pendant, with platinum tone brass findings, 20~22x20~21x5~8mm, hole: 2x7mm or a Star Natural Quartz Crystal pendant, with platinum tone brass findings, 22~23x20~24x5~7mm, Hole: 2x7mm.

My wholesaler classes natural as taken from the Earth and my understanding is this is the case with all these gemstones. The chips are mainly 5 to 8mm in size (for there longest dimensions) and most have a hole of 1mm, but their is alot of variation. The following chip beads are processed with heat (sometimes heat with wax to protect the bead) Lapis Lazuli (sometimes), Amethyst, Mookaite, Carnelian, Amazonite, Aquamarine, Aventurine, Citrine, Fluorite, Garnet, Rose Quartz. As the beads are not dyed, it usually is considered natural in the market. Gemstones often have enhancements. I try to keep to the same codes when I order but at times that stock isn't available and I will have to order lines where I don't know if those chips have treatments or not.

NONE OF THESE CHIPS ARE PLASTIC NOR A DIFFERENT GEMSTONE. If you have any doubts please read my reviews.

PLEASE NOTE THAT SOME GEMSTONES SHOULD BE TREATED CAREFULLY IN SOME SITUATIONS FOR EXAMPLE CITRINE MAY FADE WHEN EXPOSED TO SUNLIGHT FOR A FEW HOURS. PHOTOS INCLUDED SO YOU CAN SEE ROUGHLY HOW MANY OF EACH CHIP YOU WILL GET AS THE AMOUNT YOU GET VARIES WITH THE GEMSTONE. PLEASE NOTE CHIPS VARY ALOT IN SIZE.

These beads are not a medical treatment and medical advice should always be sought from doctor.

Please remember the pictures may appear different colours on different screens, also there is variation in the stones that come to me even when I order the same code each time.

I am sorry about all the information, hopefully it makes sense.

Thank you if you have read it before asking any question.
