In recent years, the trend for organic and free range food has ballooned, and more and more people are new choosing organic products wherever possible. This has developed from a desire to look after the environment and to get closer to nature. It is now possible to buy many different organic products, including organic clothes, organic shoes and organic jewelry. If you like to make your own jewelry, it is even possible to buy organic beads for jewelry making.
What are organic beads for jewelry making?
Organic beads are beads which are made from a natural material and which have not been treated with any chemicals. For example, wooden beads, shell beads, beads made out of animal horn, bone, and amber beads can all be classified as organic, as can beads which have been made out of any other substance which can be found naturally. However, if any of these materials are treated with unnatural chemicals, in order to get them to the finished state in which you use them for jewelry making, then they may not be classified as organic beads anymore. For example, if you had an item which was made out of wood, and you stained it using a chemical wood stain, then the bead should not be considered as organic anymore. However, if you treated the same bead with a wood stain which had been made out of organic substances, then the bead could still be sold under the organic label.
Using organic beads for jewelry making
If you decide to use these beads in your project, you should continue to be mindful of the way that you treat them during the creation phase of your project. If you have purposefully chosen these beads to use, then the chances are that you will want to sell the finished piece under the “organic” label. It is therefore very important that you do not do anything to jeopardize this status. For example, if you are using cotton to thread beads on to, make sure that the cotton that you are using is also organic, because inorganic cotton is available (cotton which has been treated with chemicals whilst growing). As mentioned above, you should also be careful about what you treat the beads with, as this can affect the organic status of the finished product. If you are found to have sold an inorganic product under organic status, you could get in trouble for misleading buyers, even if the mistake was unintentional.
Where to buy organic beads for jewelry making?
Organic beads are actually widely available – sometimes they are advertised as such, and sometimes they are not, but it is obvious from the product description. These beads for jewelry making can be found at most of the leading jewelry supplies stores online, and at many local beading supplies stores. If you are not sure whether the items that you are looking at are organic or not, it is often possible to ask for further information, to help to provide clarity.
