Hope that doesn't sound risque'!
After I started making chain, I noticed rubber rings in my favorite wholesale jewelry component catalog. I'd been using rubber tubing specifically designed for memory wire, which I liked, so I thought I'd give the rings a try.
They're so much fun to work with and the patterns I can create with them and jump ring connectors are endless. The colors are bold and whether I combine them or go monotone, the designs are always eye-catching. They come in different sizes and are so light weight, it's like wearing feathers.
I love that they're so reasonably priced and quick to work with, so I can offer them at low prices. This is costume jewelry that's fun and affordable!
Here are some examples, on ArtFire:
Mardi Gras Necklace
Rubber and stone earrings
Light as a feather green anklet
If you have a request for a particular style or color, let me know. I love to do custom work!

These pieces look great! I have been liking the punch of color the rubber rings can bring to jewelry. I have also seen them used, mixed with metal jump rings in chainmaille bracelets. They can be made to fit the wrist and because they are rubber and will stretch a bit, they can be slipped over the hand without need for a clasp!
