Project 1 – Hemp Jewelry

For my first project I will be making hemp jewelry and selling it at various places on the web. This is a an easy project that anyone can do and it does not cost very much to start! I really like doing crafts, but it is trying to get your time and materials back out of the project to make money, that is the hard thing.

That is why I chose the hemp jewelry project. It costs less than $5 for a ball of hemp and you can add beads and trinkets for pennies. Once you get the hang of making the bracelets or necklaces, it only takes 10 – 15 mins to make them! So sit back and check out the following videos that will teach you how to make some simple knots, then how to make a bracelet.

So that wasn’t so hard, was it? It is really quite simple and actually fun to do! Now I am going to follow with some advanced project videos for you.

Again, these are really simple once you hae done them for awhile. With any of these projects, if you wanted to make a necklace, just make it longer and add beads as necessary. You can also search YouTube.com for more hemp jewelry videos if you so desire. Below are some books that I recommend also.
