How Chips are Made
Gemstone chips are often created as a byproduct of cutting larger gemstones into faceted stones or cabochons. The leftover pieces, which may be irregular in shape and size, are then tumbled in a rotating drum with abrasive materials to smooth and polish them into chips. This process creates a variety of sizes and shapes, making them perfect for a range of creative projects.
DIY Crafts & Decor with Chips
Gemstone chips offer endless possibilities for DIY projects and decor. One popular idea is creating stunning gemstone bowl displays. Fill a decorative bowl with any variety of colorful chips, and watch as they add a touch of natural beauty to your living space. You can also use these chips to create unique jewelry pieces, such as necklaces, bracelets, and earrings.
Gemstone chips can be incorporated into jewelry in various ways. You can use them to create mosaic-style pendants or brooches, gluing the chips onto a metal or resin base. They can also be used to fill bezels or settings in rings and earrings. Additionally, you can combine the chips with other materials, such as beads, pearls, or metal accents, to create unique and personalized jewelry pieces.
For a different approach, incorporate chips into resin crafts. Embed the chips into resin molds to create coasters, paperweights, or even jewelry. You can also use resin to encapsulate the chips in a clear, protective coating. There are many more fun ideas found all across the Internet. Perhaps, we will add some ideas to our Pinterest in the future.
