A gem of amazingly beautiful violet color, as well as rock crystal - they can be used to decorate everything - from necklaces and bracelets to handbags and boots.
But most importantly - with the help of ceramic paint (Marabu) you turn any (relatively cheap) rock crystal into an amethyst and other precious stone!
LIPSTICK PENDANT
Non-waste production: part of the tube from lipstick has become a modern pendant in the style of cool.
WHAT YOU NEED: oblong amethyst, silver tube from lipstick, flat silver button with an eye on the underside (the button should be the same diameter as the tube from lipstick), Moment glue, ring with a connector, pliers.
HOW TO MAKE: grease the tube from the inside of the lipstick with glue, insert the amethyst crystal into it and hold it until the glue sets. Glue the button upside down in the same way on the other end of the tube. In the eye of the button, fasten the ring and hang it on a chain.
CASETTE LITTLE WITH AMETHYSTIS
It is hard to come up with any other object that could so amaze the imagination of others!
WHAT TO NEED: case made of silver metal, small amethysts, glue for gluing stones.
HOW TO MAKE: Lubricate the surface of the case piece by piece with glue for stones. Stick stones close to each other.
PRECIOUS BOOTS
Of course, such shoes are only for publication!
WHAT TO NEED: boots; small crystals of amethyst and rock crystal, glue for stones, marker for film.
HOW TO MAKE: use a marker to draw a horizontal bounding line on the boots (along the midline approximately 7 cm from the toe). Gradually apply glue and stick stones close to each other. Allow the glue to dry for at least 3 hours (see also manufacturer's instructions).
WIDE BRACELET WITH LARGE CRYSTALS
It is simply impossible not to pay attention to it, especially since the crystals ... are intertwined with silver wire.
WHAT TO NEED: amethysts, rhinestone: 1 larger amethyst, diam. OK. 5 cm, the second is smaller, rhinestone is slightly smaller than a large amethyst; 3 mm thick leather strip, size 6 x 22 cm, 2 buttons (piercing), silver wire with a diameter of 1 mm, hole punch pliers, ordinary pliers for jewelry, ruler, glue stick, scissors, felt remains.
STEP 1 At the ends of the strip (at a distance of 1.5 cm from the narrow side and 2 cm from the long side), draw 2 holes for the buttons on the back of the skin. Punch small holes for buttons. At one end of the strip, fix the upper halves of the buttons, at the other - the lower ones. To fix the stones in the middle of the leather strip on the wrong side, mark the circle with a diameter. 3 cm. Punch 6 holes in a circle at equal intervals.
STEP 2 Separate the crystals individually along and across the wire with a length of approx. 35 cm (moreover, from time to time the wire is twisted together) until it will hold them firmly. Work from the middle of the wire, leave the ends protruding.
STEP 3 Pull the ends of the wire through the holes on the back of the bracelet, tightly twist with each other and again pull it to the outside. On the underside of the bracelet, glue a small piece of felt to the places where the wires are passed.
