Jewelry Making Kit

A good starter kit if you want to make jewelry on weekends. It includes a box of different colored plastic beads, a box of silver hardware and the basic tools you need to start beading. The right side of the zippered pouch contained items I would associate more with sewing than beadwork, at least I've never used a bead threader in the past. I wasn't expecting much for the price quoted. I have all the beading tools at home and two sets cost more than the whole box set. I'm not at home right now and just wanted something to fix the thick jump ring on my phone case. The tools provided were enough to get the job done. Skip it and invest in better tools and materials. As you can see from the pictures, the quality of the three main instruments is sub-par at best. There are even two jagged pieces of metal protruding from the cutting tool. Plastic beads also have protruding residues. I personally would never use these beads in anything I do. Quality pearl material can be expensive, I've spent thousands of dollars on semi-precious pearls alone. If you're just trying your hand at beadwork and don't want to spend a lot of money until you're sure, this is a good water test starter kit. I personally would never use these beads in anything I do.
