You can easily make these stunning pieces of jewelry with silk, felt, cotton, and leather.

Make a beautiful fringed necklace by braiding soft dupioni silk in sherbet shades.

Make your own stylish leather cuff using our simple braiding technique.

These easy-to-make fabric flower bands are always in season. Start by snipping fabric flowers, such as the vintage ones shown here, from their stems. Wrap ribbon around your finger to determine the approximate length you'll need; cut ribbon to size, adding about 1/4 inch for overlap. Use a hot-glue gun to join ends together, forming a loop, and to add flowers to ribbon bands.

Turn an old cotton T-shirt into a piece of wearable art using just a ruler and scissors.

Make a vintage or unused brooch the centerpiece of a romantic ribbon bracelet. We used a cubic zirconia-encrusted leaf pinned to some lavender velvet ribbon. Pick out a thickish ribbon, like velvet or double-faced satin, that will support the brooch's weight. The only tricky part is tying it on your wrist-you'll need an extra pair of hands to help you there.

Add a touch of whimsy to your look with a colorful statement necklace made from pantyhose and rubber bouncy balls.

Create an ombre effect by stringing together different color beads, then covering them with wire lace to add a luxurious look.

Gather ornaments of all shapes and sizes and stitch them to a linen backing for a show-stopping necklace.

Take that necklace you wore to the prom and recast it in a fashion-forward setting that looks great over a ribbed tank or crewneck sweater. 

Select a sparkly drop style and one-third yard of fabric -- we suggest taffeta or linen in black, off-white, or silver. Arrange the necklace on the fabric in a U shape and use chalk to draw a rough outline around the necklace, extending it a foot beyond each end for the bow. Cut out the fabric (don't worry about fraying, which gives the bib the edge you want), and glue the necklace down jewel by jewel with Magna-Tac. For a less-permanent fix, sew it on.

Add a sophisticated new piece to your wardrobe with this stylish and inexpensive leather bracelet.

If you find yourself with some leftover yarn, this is a good project to make use of it. Even if you can't knit, you can make this unique and stylish bracelet decorated with wool yarn.

These whimsical pieces are made with simple supplies such as wool, soapy water, and embroidery floss.

Use leftover string from crafts projects to make custom textured bangle bracelets.

Arrange assorted glass gems on Ultrasuede or felt for a special bib necklace.

Use ribbon and other trims (we used cotton webbing and uncut fringe) as the base for these beautiful bracelets that are decorated with beads and gems.

Make sunny silk poppies out of silk and attach to other accessories to add a pop of color.

Dress up your outfit with a flower brooch made from lace trim.
