PENDANTS AND BEADS PERFECT FOR THE CELEBRATION OF LOVE

 

The enchanting beauty of EM ART’s beads, pendants, and connectors will inspire you to create special jewelry gifts for Valentine’s Day.

Pendants are added to various jewelry pieces, creating a stunning accessory with a dangling end in different shapes and finishes, such as coloring or crystal inlays.

 

How to Make Your Own Jewelry with Pendants at Home?

Here’s an idea for an easy-to-make necklace in just a few steps:

 

• Choose a black leather cord from our cord catalog.
• Select a pendant, for example, a heart with an inscription.
• Thread a jump ring and attach the pendant to it. You’ll need pliers to close the ring securely.
• If desired, add clasp and end caps, or simply tie the two ends in a knot.
• Present your necklace in a jewelry gift box, decorate it with a ribbon, and add a card with a personal message.

 

Using this simple method, you can also create a bracelet. Add a pendant to the center and string beads on both ends for extra effect. Use art-style beads or metal tubes, placing the pendant in the middle and the beads in between. As with the necklace, adding clasps and end caps is optional; you can simply tie the ends together.

 

You’ll need earring findings available in our earring components catalog. Attach the pendants to the findings in just two steps, and you’ll have a wonderful accessory ready to wear.

 

More Ideas from EM ART

A Valentine’s Day gift doesn’t necessarily have to be jewelry. Pendants are a great addition to handbags, clothing, scarves, belts, keychains, or personal journals. You can quickly and easily create any of these items.

For example, you can attach a pendant to a zipper on clothing, making it not only stylish but also practical as it’s easier to find and use the zipper. The effect is both functional and visually appealing.

At EM ART, we suggest a creative project: crafting an album with your favorite photos from moments spent with your loved one. Use heart-shaped beads to highlight special events, and let your imagination run wild to create a unique keepsake.

 

How to Use Connectors and What Are They?

Connectors make jewelry crafting easier. They act as links between different design elements and add variety to the overall piece. At EM ART, we recommend incorporating beads for a unique touch, such as adding a connector to the center of a string of beads.

Experiment with various cords, threads, elastics, and yarns. A popular idea is a red thread bracelet with a heart connector. This is a sure winner as a gift.

Connectors can also be used to create other accessories. You know your loved ones best, so choose what they’d appreciate most. Be innovative and experiment with different projects.

Speaking of heart shapes, let’s explore their history and symbolism.

In the past, our ancestors believed the heart was the center of thought, dismissing the importance of the brain. Later, ancient Buddhist philosophy attributed emotions to the heart and reason to the mind.

The philosophy suggested that good thoughts and emotions ensure good health, while negative thoughts lead to mental afflictions, illness, and aging. The heart was seen as the foundation of emotions, morality, and intellect.

Today, the heart symbolizes romantic love, compassion, and kindness, becoming one of the most positive symbols worldwide. Handmade jewelry featuring heart elements is among the most popular gifts for Valentine’s Day and other occasions. The heart shape continues to be a customer favorite.

 

What’s the Story Behind Valentine’s Day and Its Origins?

The name "Valentine" first appears in the *Martyrologium Hieronymianum*, a book dating between 460 and 544 AD. In Rome, you can find relics of Saint Valentine in the church of "Santa Maria in Cosmedin" at Piazza Bocca della Verità.

In the city of Terni, there’s a church dedicated to him, visited by people seeking blessings for prosperity and faithfulness in love.

Saint Valentine was a patron of lovers and blessed marriages during the time of Emperor Claudius II. The emperor prohibited young men from marrying, believing they’d make better soldiers. Secretly, Valentine organized weddings for lovers whose parents disapproved of their unions.

Legend says that when Saint Valentine gifted flowers from his garden to young visitors, an intangible love would blossom between them.

 

Today, February 14, is celebrated as the Day of Love in many countries. The holiday’s name originates from the legend of Saint Valentine and is a tradition in many English-speaking countries. It gained popularity in Bulgaria in the late 20th century and is celebrated with flowers, chocolates, symbolic gifts, and a loving spirit.

 

Did You Know?

Venus, the planet of love, is the second closest planet to the Sun and the hottest in the solar system due to dense clouds of toxic gases that trap the Sun’s heat. Its surface temperature exceeds 480°C.

 

Venus shines brightly in the sky just after sunset or before sunrise. Its name derives from the Roman goddess Venus, meaning Evening Star and Morning Star. It’s said that when the planet of love rules someone’s zodiac sign, it ignites passion in their love life.
