I LOVE gemstone bracelets but they are always so expensive! I really couldn't afford $20+ for a bracelet so I did some searching and found a few affordable places to purchase beads and make my own! I'll list the sites I order from below for anyone interested in making their own bracelets too!
Fire Mountain Gems - (US based)
This site has AMAZING prices for beads and the like to make the perfect bracelets, rings and necklaces! You can shop the sale section and find strings of beads for $1.00! They also sell undrilled gemstone chips which are super nifty for jar spells. I don't shop here often unless I have a bulk order as I am based in Canada. But all in all, it's definitely worth the prices.
I-Bead Canada - (Canadian based)
Because I'm Canadian, I've found this site has the best canadian prices for gemstone beads. This is where I purchased the beads in the photo below! Fast shipping and quality beads!
The.Beadboutique - (Canadian based)
This is actually an Instagram live sale that I LOVE! She carries both gemstones and beads. Bead sales are on Wednesday's and is a great time to pick up gemstone pendants and focals. She has a lot more string beads as well. However, I avoid buying the strings of beads as I find they are cheaper on I-Bead.
Other Places
A few other places you can try is Michaels and JoAnn's craft stores. They both carry beads. It would be best to only buy when using a coupon or sales though as these stores are much more expensive than the listed places above! Be aware that they do sell fake gemstones as well here! I do prefer the other websites as they do state which pieces are natural, dyed and or synthetic.
Hope this post helps anyone interested in making some witchy jewelry! I'm waiting on a batch right now and hope to share my new necklaces I'll be making soon!
