I wear jewelry every day, over the years I have developed some fun and interesting ways to style my jewelry accessories. I thought I would share a few of my favorite DIY jewelry styling tips with you here.

1: Stacking and layering.

I layer my jewelry all the time! One piece just never feels like enough. Sometimes I like to stack my bracelets and bangles on both wrists, and other times I just leave one adorned. I also like to stack my rings and necklaces and I think that layering delicate necklaces can look particularly charming.

Why not try layering a couple of bar charm necklaces or some cute beaded bangles like I have here?

When it comes to rings, stacking rings of different sizes can be a fun way to wear them. I love to have my fingers hands covered with shiny baubles!

2: Make your designs POP by wearing neutral colors

Some of my jewelry designs, particularly the earrings, are very bold. I like to make my DIY jewelry accessories stand out by wearing them with a pared back, neutral outfit. My colors of choice are usually grey and black, which are great base colors for making your bright and beautiful earring designs really stand out.

3: Don’t be afraid to mix metallics

I usually think of gold and silver as neutral colors. They look great with everything! Don’t be afraid to layer up with lots of shiny metallic jewelry. It’s also been said that gold and silver don’t go together… I say they most certainly do! One of my favorite styling tricks is to layer gold and silver colored necklaces and bracelets together. Delicate chains work together to create a unique layered look.

4: Mix your gemstone jewelry with other materials

If you have a lot of jewelry that you have made using gemstones and precious metals, you might be tempted to only wear these pieces with other gemstone designs, but I like to mix it up and wear my more ‘precious’ pieces along with jewelry made from other materials like glass beads, shell and knitted strands. Combining materials adds texture and interest to your look and helps you to avoid looking to ‘done’ or prissy!

So there you have it, these are my tips for styling my jewelry. How do you like to wear yours? I’d love to hear how you like to wear your DIY jewelry, comment and share your styling tips with me!
