You will be brought to wear your wedding ring for the rest of your days, so it must be perfect. There are a plethora of alliances on the market, from traditional to truly unique. Here are the different types of alliances for which you can opt for your wedding.  

Precious Metals

Choosing the metal for your alliance is a good starting point. There are many metals available, all with different properties and styles that make some will be much more suitable for you than others.  

Yellow gold

Yellow gold is a good choice for future brides and grooms. As a general rule, 22-carat gold is too soft to be worn daily. So think about buying an 18-carat, 14-carat or 9-carat gold alliance. These rings are combined with stronger metals and are better adapted to the requirements of everyday life.  

White gold

This alliance is the perfect complement to a platinum engagement ring. White gold rings are often rhodium-plated to enhance their appearance. Even if this veneer has to disappear over time, it can be easily reapplied and give your alliance a new look.  

Platinum

These alliances are increasingly acclaimed by modern couples. This white metal is extremely durable and can be used for very long periods of time. It is much rarer than gold and much more expensive. These alliances will last even if you don't take them to a big brand. However, if a platinum alliance exceeds your budget, consider buying a palladium alliance instead. Palladium has become a popular alternative to platinum because of its similar color but its affordable price.

Titanium

Titanium is one of the most modern jewellery metals. It comes in a very nice color that remains a little different from platinum and palladium. It is scratch resistant and offers a sensation of lightness to the finger.

The Zirconium

Black zirconium and tungsten carbide are other contemporary metals with properties and appearance similar to previous ones.  

Alliances in shape

Once you have chosen the metal, you have to wonder if this new alliance will complement your engagement ring. The two rings will be worn side by side for the rest of your life, so it is important that they be seated well. You may never have considered the ring profile before, but you will begin to see subtle differences once you compare their style when they are on your fingers. You can choose for example a curved or adjusted wedding ring. These come in a range of designs including a delicate curve, a pronounced Z-shape or a cut-out in the ring. Even if you do not need to put it in shape, consider the profile of the ring. You can choose a short form (rounded inside and outside), D-shaped flat profiles.  

Diamond Rings

Once you have chosen the wedding ring, the time has come to consider the inclusion of a diamond or other gemstone. Diamond-set alliances are increasingly fashionable and are much more noticeable on women's wedding rings. Diamond alliances also find favor for men as a way to remember someone who cares about them. Another fun way to do this is to burn your fingerprint on your wedding ring. The Diamonds in the rings are usually round and very shiny. But you can also find motifs with pear-shaped stones, emerald and marquise. The more unusual the shape of the diamond, the more glamorous your alliance is and will probably be more expensive. Finally, the choice of alliances will have to be based on your tastes and those of your partner since once carried, it will be for life!

Still called bracelets of friendship, the Brazilian bracelets are made in interweaving of the threads. There are different colors and patterns. Ideal to offer as present, their manufacture is easy and costs practically nothing. In the rest of this article, we offer you simple and easy tricks to make yourself, a Brazilian bracelet.  

Prepare your equipment

To make your "jewel", you will need cotton yarns, different colors chosen to your liking, a safety pin or tape to fix the top as well as a pair of scissors and optional accessories such as beads , tinkering, etc…  

Cut the braiding threads

This first step of the realization consists of cutting, with the help of the chisel, the threads which you have defined the colors beforehand. And this, in pieces of length corresponding to the perimeter of your wrist. The number of wires depends on the type of bracelet you want. For example, for a six-wire model, you need three pieces of wire or string.  

Realize and attach a clip to the end of the wires

Align the wires on a stand evenly and from the middle of the cluster, attach all wires together to obtain a tight loop at their end. When this knot is done, make sure to secure it with the adhesive tape on a table for example. You also have the option to attach it on a cushion or on your trousers with a safety pin. In this case you will tie your sons in a seated posture. This process allows you to keep the wires in constant stiffness.  

Start the mat of your bracelet

In order to braid the threads, it is necessary at first to divide them into two uniform groups. Then, make a knot by grabbing the wires on the right side and then passing them through the upper and lower ones on the left side. In the done knot, put the wires on the right and then horizontally bring the wires to both sides by keeping them parallel to your support. And finally, pull the left wires vertically by keeping them orthogonal to the bracket. You just made a cross-knot. And now, resume all this operation from the left wires. Make a new knot with the latter by passing them to the top and bottom of the right wires. In the knot already done, put the left wires and then horizontally bring the wires to both sides by keeping them parallel to your support. And finally, pull the right wires vertically by keeping them orthogonal to the bracket.  

Relay the knots on either side until you get the gem

Alternately follow the knots from the previous step, as you go, until you finish the braid of your bracelet. In addition, you can integrate beads and other tinkers to personalize it. For example, you can write your first name in the middle of your Brazilian bracelet. Likewise, you will be able to write anything else such as the name of your companion and a mention that is dear to you.  

Make the Finish

Once the mat is successful, make a loop with all the wires from the braid by interweavinging them like at the beginning of the bracelet making. So you get his second tie.  

Link and try your bracelet

The last step is to tie the two straps to your wrist to wear your bracelet. Note that it should not be too tight because you need to be able to easily remove your bracelet. Brazilian bracelets are very trendy during certain seasons of the year. By following these steps, the garments will be very playful.
