Christmas present for my Christmas Angels.

Believe and Reindeer jewelry sets for my Christmas Angels.

Believe and Reindeer jewelry sets for my Christmas Angels.

A little Christmas gift for the Angels:

I found some charms online that they will love.  One says Believe and one is a really cute reindeer. They will make adorable jewelry sets.  I do try to encourage them to take care of their jewelry, but it’s a process, it takes time, so for now we stay away from precious metals and jewels. The final cost for each set will be under two dollars. Each chain costs about a dollar (eBay) and the charms were six dollars for twenty (eBay).  The ear wires came from Hobby Lobby and were very inexpensive. (Make sure you get surgical steel.) The final touch is to wrap them up and make them look special, because ALL girls, no matter the age, love a pretty present.

FYI:  If you order from eBay make sure the seller is not in China or you  may have to wait months for your order.

Supplies:

Chain- good length for kids is 16”.

Charm- I prefer silver, but they come in gold or bronze tone as well.

Jump ring to match- Hobby Lobby has them.

Ear wires- Hobby Lobby.

Needle nose pliers.

These are nice enough to give as a little gift to anyone so make more than one, that reduces the cost per set.

Open the jump ring by twisting it slightly at the break point.  Slip on the charm and Chain.  Close by twisting it back into place.
