— November 27, 2012 — Eco
If your funds are a little low this holiday season, perhaps you should consider these DIY Christmas jewelry ideas for the gifts to all your besties. They are simple, attractive and best of all, not that costly.

These creative tutorials show you how to make the extra buttons that come with your clothing into one-of-a-kind decorative rings. Or, if you heard your best friend talking about how badly she wanted a charm bracelet this Christmas, give her a spin on an old classic. The result is a treasured bangle that uses golden chains, clear crystals and dangling bulbs.

They say the best things in life are free, unfortunately some people don't expect that statement to hold up during the holidays. So give a gift that is impressive, yet won't break the bank by skimming through the DIY Christmas Jewelry ideas to get inspiration.
