Easy DIY Rhinestone Valentine's Day Gift – Bedazzle a BottleSometimes, the simplest things can mean so much to someone. With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, a simple gift can show that special someone how much they mean to you. It’s easy to bedazzle a bottle and fill it with candy for a sweet treat. For this project, I used:
Several tools on the market help apply adhesives such as E6000, which tends to be sort of gloppy. I like to squeeze it out over a paper plate and scrape the glue up with a toothpick to apply it. Begin by placing a drop of glue on the glass bottle. Using the wax tipped tool, pick up a rhinestone and gently press it into the glue. I began at the top of the bottle and covered the outside edges of the bottle with some swirl pattern in the inside. Then I glued some large 30ss crystal rhinestones in among the swirls. Allow to dry for 24 hours. Cut a pieces of silver ribbon about 4 inches long and tie a bow at the top. Fill with small candy such as MMs in Valentine’s Day colors. This is a simple gift that is easy to make yet will have such heartfelt meaning to the person you give it to.

Do It Yourself Jewelry - Rhinestone Choker NecklaceFeeling a little edgy and bold? Want to turn heads at your next event while still displaying a bit of sparkle? Complete your outfit with this rhinestone choker necklace. For this project, I used:
Begin by cutting two pieces of the 12 gauge wire about 12 inches long. Cut 3 smaller pieces about 3 ½ -4 inches long. Jewelry makers will use a steel bench block for hammering the wire which I do not have. I used a DIY hack which worked for my purpose. I took 2 hammers, using the head of one as the bench block on which I hammered the wire. Using the needle nose jewelry pliers, bend the ends of the longer pieces to form a small semicircle facing back to the wire so that the ends are tucked under. Hammer these longer pieces until flat. Then shape into a circle about 5 inches in diameter. Shape the shorter pieces into “s” shapes and then hammer them flat. Cut pieces of the 24 gauge wire about 2 inches in length. Attach one of the “s” shapes to one of the longer wires placing it at of the center and wrapping the 24 gauge wire around the 12 gauge wire. Do the same for the other pieces. Then attach the “s” shapes to the remaining 12 gauge wire. Finally, wire wrap the ends together of the longer pieces. Place a drop of E6000 about the size of the rhinestone on the flattened wire. Using a wax tipped tool, place a rhinestone in the drop of glue, gently pressing the rhinestone into the glue drop. Continue gluing. Allow to dry for 24 hours. Slip a ribbon in the ends of the choker to be able to tie around the neck. And there you have it! A sophisticated, yet edgy look! Go ahead try this idea and make your fashion statement today!
