General Information:Cross Charms and Pendants for Jewelry Making
A cross can become the focal point of a necklace, a meaningful addition to a charm bracelet or a small symbol of faith incorporated into a handmade gift. When choosing a cross for jewelry making, consider both its size and how it attaches. A single top loop or bail works naturally for a cross pendant or dangling charm, while a connector with attachment points at both ends can become part of the bracelet or necklace itself.
More Ways to Use Cross Charms
Cross charms and pendants aren't limited to necklaces and bracelets. Smaller crosses can be made into earrings or attached to bookmarks, keychains and other keepsakes. Birthstone crosses add a personal connection to birthday and family jewelry, while gemstone crosses offer individual colors and natural-looking patterns. Crosses can also be incorporated into handmade baptism gifts, First Communion gifts, Confirmation gifts and other Christian and religious keepsakes.
Charm or Pendant?
The terms charm and pendant are often used interchangeably, and many crosses can serve equally well as either. A smaller cross may become a bracelet charm while the same cross can be added to a chain or cord and worn as a necklace pendant. Rather than being limited by the name of the finding, choose the cross by its size, style, attachment and how you want it to look in your finished project.
