Beading Tool Kit

Beading Tool Kit

Discover all of our recommended tools for creating beautiful jewellery designs using gemstone beads!

This kit features:

Pack Of Jewellery Pliers, Snips and Tweezers:

  • Chain Nose (Snipe Nose) Pliers - an all purpose tool, use to grip and tuck in ends of wire and reach into small spaces, use to open and close jump rings, with crimps and more.
  • Bent Chain Nose Pliers - perfect for getting into areas that are harder to reach and useful for bending wire
  • Flat Nose Pliers - ideal for a secure grip on wire, jump rings and metal sheet, creating angular bends and flattening and straightening metal as well as closing pinch ends.
  • Nylon Jaw Flat Nose Pliers - a must have for wire work as it will not mar or damage the metal, also brilliant for straightening wire (includes a spare pair of nylon jaws)
  • Round Nose Pliers - create loops and coils in wire, head pins and eye pins, one of the most useful tools in wirework
  • Side Cutters - useful for general trimming or cutting any soft wire or beading threads
  • Knotting Tweezers - useful to help make and position knots between pearls and beads.
  • Split Ring Tweezers - handy for holding and opening split rings to attach to clasps, charms and connectors.

This set is slightly smaller than standard pliers but still a very comfortable and usable size for most.

Bead Board: This helpful bead board allows you to plan and create your beaded designs easily and even while on the go. It has three U shaped channels to help you lay out your design, 6 recessed sections to house your beads and findings and it's flocked surface also prevents your beads from rolling away.

Bead Mat: A bead mat is essential for beaders! Work on the mat to prevent your beads from rolling away, it's bright colour also makes it easier to see what you're working on.

Thread Snips: Use for cutting beading thread and thin wires.

Micro Crimping Pliers: If you're after a professional finish, these crimping pliers create small and neat crimps every time.

Deluxe Diamond Coated Bead Reamer Set: This is such a handy tool to have for enlarging bead holes - there's nothing more frustrating when your beads don't quite fit your chosen thread or wire!

Book: The Basics Of Bead Stringing: This popular book is an illustrated guide for beginner and advanced designers on all of the techniques you are likely to need for beading.
