Consider using rhinestones on unusual items...flower pots, watering cans, unusual tools.
Washburn™ Guitar Company produces a great instrument completely covered with our rhinestones...why not you? Great designer accents and sure to get attention - to your left a Coach™ bag decorated |
| 20 SS Fire Opal by Swarovski was used to create a one-of-a-kind show winning Goldwing 1800 Flame Pattern on this motorcycle. GemTac glue was used to apply the stones, and none have come off, even after repeated washings and cleanings. This bike attracts unbelievable attention on the highway!! Helmet is flamed with Fire Opal to complete the look. It took 140 gross of rhinestones to produce this job, well worth it. Owned by Phil Brandt.
The same can be done to cars...be the first on your block to make an outrageous statement! SEE BELOW Motorcyclists and Car Enthusiasts: See Below! |

A simple little tie to wear to work...just laying' around in my closet For great ties and belts, use Point Back mesh banding of various widths to 'suit' your needs. Allow about 5 rows for each inch of width.

Cell Phones for Sparkling conversations Use 5SS, 7SS, 9SS, and/or 12SS Swarovski in patterns for a unique phone service...your minutes may be limited, but your style isn't. Cover purses, shoes, bracelets, or ear rings with patterns of rhinestones. |

Designer Wear ... from the closet! Just a little something to wear to the grocery store! Find a dress that fits well ...something you like, but everyone has seen. Use Swarovski or Czech 5mm or 6mm round beads with occasional Swarovski sew-on jewels at neckline, accent stripe (s), and/or cuffs. But don't tell anyone that you didn't pay $5000.00 for the dress - that's our secret! All you need to do is dare to be creative! |
Jeans...new or old ...fashionably sleazy To the right: Use flat back rhinestones and glue...go to town to lay down stones in random pattern. Add our single row point-back rhinestone belt and strut your stuff. Or, Create a transfer with heat set rhinestones to make patterns. See below

"What separates us from the animals is our ability to accessorize" Vests, scarves, purses...only your imagination will limit your creativeness. Use 12SS, 16SS, and 20SS for fabulous fashion statements ...unique to you. |
Pictures in Stone (rhinestones, of course) Produce your favorite picture on your computer, make a ink transfer and apply to your shell or blouse, then 'paint' the picture in appropriate colored rhinestones for dazzling effects. Consider using 12SS rhinestones, apply with GemTac Glue |

Crocks: the latest rage in footwear for a change, this started on the East Coast and is spreading Westward Ho.
Very simple to decorate, nothing fancy required. See "How to ... Flip Flops and Crocks " under "Helpful Information, here at Rhinestone Guy. |
Cut-Offs are Out, SKIRTS are In! Take an old pair of jeans, cut from cuff to cuff, getting rid of felded seam. Cut at 1 inch longer than the finish length of the skirt, insert pie-wedge (from scrap of leftover leg) into center back, then cut unusual hem line and turn twice and stitch. Now, apply rhinestones in appilique fashion to produce Rodeo Drive skirt. If you wish, cut waist band to hip-hugger height and finish with denim or trim belt. |
