A good way to avoid the pain that goes along with this is to focus your efforts on the design of your custom jewellery, and then commission a seasoned, professional jeweller to actually make the piece for you. If you are truly in love with the DIY ethos and need to learn to make jewelry yourself, consider taking a class and learning with more common metals and stones until you are happy with your level of skill.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

To help you in your jewellery creation process, we\u2019ve compiled a list of our favorite uses of diamonds in jewellery for you to incorporate into your own designs.<\/p>\n

Pendants<\/h2>\n

Nothing creates a truly extravagant result quite like a diamond-studded pendant. Pendants are the chandeliers of jewelry, and are the perfect compliment for white-tie events such as balls, dances, fundraisers, and fancy dinner parties. Derived from the French word \u201cpendere,\u201d meaning \u201cto hang down,\u201d pendants are most commonly made to be worn as either necklace or earring adornments.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Necklaces<\/h2>\n

Incorporating diamonds into a necklace is quite simple, and the results can range from an extravagant piece with so many diamonds hanging off of it that it would make a pendant necklace look conservative, to a very simple, elegant piece with a single stone hanging at the sternum. It really just depends on the type of statement you\u2019re going after.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Brooches<\/h2>\n

Because of their size and the occasions on which brooches are actually worn in modern society, it is difficult to imagine designing a diamond brooch without going all out. Similar to pendants in size, brooches are typically attached to the clothing and can range in shapes from geometric designs, organic forms such as birds and leaves, all the way to a bouquet of gemstone flowers all with diamond centers.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Bracelets<\/h2>\n

Diamond bracelet designs tend to fall in the same category as necklace designs: either over-the-top extravagance or very simple elegance. The key with bracelets is to determine whether you want something that achieves the same look all the way around the wrist, or if it\u2019s a chain with custom charm pieces that can be attached or removed based on the wearer\u2019s preferences.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Anklets<\/h2>\n

These follow the same rules as bracelets, but there is the consideration of shoes to keep in mind. There are many beautiful anklet designs that can only be worn barefoot or with open-toe shoes. While these designs are elegant, they\u2019re not practical for most events where heels would be required, so keep this in mind.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Hair pieces<\/h2>\n

Most diamond hairpieces are very floral in nature. Think of placing a flower in your hair and how the color and shape should compliment the entire outfit. The same applies for the diamond hair piece.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Earrings<\/h2>\n

When it comes to earrings, we believe simplicity is key. There are plenty of pendant-style earrings out there, but the most striking earrings only use a handful of stones at most and highlight the face of the wearer.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Cheesy as the old saying \u2018diamonds are forever\u2019 may be, diamonds truly are the benchmark when it comes to fine jewellery. Many people only associate diamond use with engagement rings, but they are a versatile way to add adornment to nearly any type of adornment.<\/p>\n

To make a real impression with your own jewelry, you can\u2019t go wrong with diamonds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
