You can make these elegant and rings yourself. It's so easy. Wear several together for a layered, modern look, or choose a single ring for a clean, understated touch.
You can find more inspiration and tutorials on rings in our blog posts DIY Wire wrapped rings und DIY Rings with semi-precious stones and Delica jewellery with memory wire.
Rings with Smoky Quartz
For these rings, we have used the following materials (seen from left to right):
1pc. gilded 18mm hoop earring + 2pcs. faceted smoky quartz teardrops
1pc. gilded brass cup ring base with peg + 1pc. half-drilled faceted 8mm smoky quartz bead
1pc. gilded 18mm hoop earring + 1pc. half-drilled 6mm faceted smoky quartz bead+ 1pc. in 8mm
+ glue
NB: The colour on the brass ring fades easily, so avoid getting it wet or washing your hands while wearing it. For higher quality and longer durability, you can choose the ring in gilded sterling silver — it is also available in silver.
File down the peg so it fits neatly into the hole of the bead.
Rings with Aventurine, Green Agate and Prehnite
We used the following DIY components to make these rings: (from left to right)
1pc. gilded 18mm hoop earring + 2pcs. half-drilled aventurine beads
1pc. gilded brass cup ring base with peg + 1pc. 8mm half-drilled green agate
1pc. gilded 18mm hoop earring+ 2pcs. half-drilled beads, 8mm green agate + 6mm faceted prehnite (currently out of stock)
+ glue
Below, we show you an example of how to make the rings.
All the rings shown above are made using the same method, except the single‑bead designs. For those, the peg of the ring is simply dipped in glue and then inserted into the bead.
In this example, we’re making the aventurine ring. For rings created with hoop earrings, you’ll need side-cutter pliers.
Begin by cutting off the eye of the hoop.
Next, place a tiny dab of glue on the freshly cut end of the hoop and attach one of your beads, pressing it gently into place.
Next, apply a small dab of glue to the other end of the hoop and attach the second bead.
Your ring is now finished — quick, simple, and effortless to make, and it even adjusts slightly to fit different sizes.
Pearl rings
For these pearl rings, we used the following DIY components:
3pcs. gilded brass cup ring base with peg
1pc. 10mm half-drilled shell pearl
1pc. 5mm half-drilled freshwater pearl
1pc. 4mm half-drilled freshwater pearl
Apply a small dab of glue to the tip of the peg and inside the cup, then insert it into your pearl.
Check the depth of the pearl to ensure the peg doesn’t show. If it’s too long, trim off the excess — better a little too short than too long — and make sure the bead sits neatly in the cup.
You can wear the rings individually or stack them together, as shown above, all on one finger.
Berry-bead rings
For these rings, you’ll need the following materials:
1pc. gilded sterling silver cup ring base with peg
1pc. faceted berry-bead. These beads are available in many different stones, here we have shown carnelian, smoky quartz and prehnite.
These berry beads are made of faceted stones set around a soft fabric core, which you can easily pierce.
Begin by making a hole in the berry bead using the peg of your ring. If the peg doesn’t go through cleanly, use an awl to create the opening. Next, apply a small dab of glue to the peg and inside the cup, then press it gently into the berry bead.
Your berry‑bead ring is now finished!
Rings with enamel coins
We used the following DIY components to make these rings: (from left to right)
1pc. ring base with 10mm plate, gilded steel + 1pc. 16mm gilded blue-green enamel coin
1pc. ring base with 7mm plate, gilded sterling silver+ 1pc. 12mm gilded dark green enamel coin
1pc. ring base with 7mm plate, gilded sterling silver + 1pc. 8mm gilded white enamel coin
+ lim
Please note that the gilded steel ring bases are available in several sizes, including adjustable options.
Apply a small dab of glue to the plate and press the coin firmly into place. If you lightly scratch the surface of the plate with a file, the coin will adhere more securely.
You can wear several rings at once — try stacking three on the same finger in different coin sizes.
Enjoy your new rings.
