Crystals are one of the earth's most beautiful natural substances. Formed hundreds of years ago, each crystal is completely unique and it's believed they hold energy and power. People use and gift crystals for protection, healing and peace. They've been gifted to family and friends as good luck charms since the dawn of time and we think they make thoughtful gifts.

If you're a crystal fan like us then you're going to love this blog post. We've collected over 20 fun and easy crystal crafts for you to make. There's everything from jewellery projects to upcycling hacks and much more. They'll help you display your much-loved crystals prettily around your home. Many of these crafts use just three materials - crystals, wire and some wire cutters. We've included the basic crystal craft supplies below so you can stock up before you start making! For more magical makes check out our how to make geode coasters tutorial and our constellation arts & crafts collection. Now let's go crystal shopping!

Crystal craft supplies

A selection of crystals

Healing Crystals kit

Buy it now from Amazon

The first thing you need for crystal crafts is of course crystals! There's plenty of places you can buy them both online and instore. Amazon sells a huge range of crystals and gemstones like this 17 pieces healing kit. This kit contains a range of gorgeous polished Chakra stones, all completely unique and ready to be used in your crafts.

It's important to think about what crystals you want to craft with and whether you want them to come with predrilled holes. For wire wrapped crafts you won't need a hole but if you want to make jewellery predrilled holes can be useful. If you're looking for specific types of crystals search their names and buy the ones which speak to you.

Wire

Many crystal crafts are made with wrapping wire around the crystal. If there's are the kind of projects you're looking to make you'll need to purchase some wire. For smaller, more delicate projects (like necklaces, crowns, rings) jewellery wire will work perfectly. If you have bigger crystals that you're hoping to hang or use then you might require stronger wire. 18 gauge wire, this one, is much stronger and better for making crystal photo holders or wall hangings.

Wire cutters

Precision Wire Cutter

Buy it now from Amazon

In order to bend your wire into intricate patterns, you'll need a pair of wire cutters. Very thin wire can be bent with your hands but in order to fix it tightly around your crystals, we'd recommend using wire cutters. You'll also find it easier to bend your wire into shapes and cut the excess away. These wire cutters are a great option but there's plenty on the market that will work. Just ensure the blades are small enough for delicate projects or strong enough if you're using thick wire.

There's a few more supplies you'll need for the following crystal crafts but many of you will already have them! Glue guns are used frequently (head to our best glue guns to pick yourself up a new one) as is macrame rope (we also have a round-up of the best macrame cords). Once you've gathered your supplies it's time to get crafting. Here's our round-up of the best DIY crystal crafts.
