Well Kat you will need to get a few tools for these types of jewellery making.

You will need a small drill, I have both a drumel and a hand or finger drill. You should also get a small pair of jewellery grade pliers(micheals carries these).

I use a glue called E6000 or Goop. I don't find that crazy glue lasts, it dries out and the jewellery will fall apart.

You can find a lot of the supplies at the $ store for now. Pick up chain, jump rings asstorted sizes.

The bottle caps I have done with the E6000. I decided what I want in the cap and add it in layers with the glue and the items untill I have the look I want then, if I want it to be a pendent I add a twised piece of wire with a loop at the end and stick in in the glue at the top sectiona dn just let it all dry. once gry add a jump ring and chain!!! I did a cute one with small shells and a wire fish!!

As for dominos depending on what you want to make like a bracelet, it will depend on which way you want to attach them, end to end or sdie by side, either way you will need a drill.

I'm sure there are lots of toutorials out there!!
