If you’ve ever admired a piece of handmade jewellery and thought, “I could make that!” — you’re absolutely right! Jewellery making is a rewarding craft that anyone can start with a few key tools, a bit of guidance, and plenty of inspiration. At Relax n Craft, we love helping our community of crafters dive into the wonderful world of jewellery making with the best tools and tutorials. This guide will walk you through the essential tools every jewellery maker should have to get started, and we’ll also share tips on choosing the best quality for each tool to make your creative journey easier.
So lets get started with our wonderful Round Nose Pliers
Round Nose Pliers: Create Perfect Curves and Loops
Round nose pliers are the unsung heroes of jewellery making! These pliers have smooth, rounded jaws that allow you to make consistent, beautiful loops in wire. Whether you’re creating wrapped loops, linking beads, or making your own findings, round nose pliers are a must. For beginners, mastering this tool can be a game-changer, adding a professional touch to every piece you make. At Relax n Craft, we include high-quality round nose pliers in our starter kits because we know how essential it is to have the right tool when you’re learning new techniques.
Chain Nose/Bent Nose Pliers: Your Go-To for Precision and Versatility
Next up are our chain nose/bent nose pliers are a jack-of-all-trades tool that every jewellery maker relies on. With pointed tips and smooth inner surfaces, these pliers help you grip wire firmly without leaving marks. They’re perfect for opening and closing jump rings, holding wire in place, and working with small components where precision is key. We hand-pick chain nose/bent nose pliers for Relax n Craft tool kit to ensure they provide a comfortable grip and secure hold, allowing you to focus on perfecting your design.
Flat Jaw Pliers: Ideal for Firm Grips and Straightening Wires
Flat jaw pliers, also known as flat nose pliers, are designed with broad, flat jaws that make it easy to hold components securely and straighten wire with precision. When you need to bend wire sharply or hold pieces firmly without distorting them, flat jaw pliers are invaluable. They also come in handy when you’re learning to create clean, angular shapes, adding a polished look to your jewellery. Our curated tool kits at Relax n Craft include durable flat jaw pliers that are gentle on your hands, ideal for repetitive tasks.
Semi-Flush Cutters: Clean Cuts with Professional Finish
Finally, no jewellery maker’s toolkit is complete without semi-flush cutters. These cutters are designed to give you a clean, near-flush cut, perfect for trimming excess wire and creating neat finishes on your designs. Unlike basic wire cutters, semi-flush cutters allow you to cut close to your work without leaving sharp edges. At Relax n Craft, we offer not one but 2 pairs of high-quality semi-flush cutters in our jewellery making kit. One set are side cutters and one set of top cutters both sharp and durable, so you can make precise cuts without strain or discomfort.
