| Wire Cutters | ||
| Essential for cutting craft wire, headpins and eyepins to size. Their hard diagonal edge blades let you trim wire in neatly and closely. | ||
| Flat Nose | ||
| For making sharp angles in soft wire, and because they grip well, use them to straighten kinked pins and wires. Their wide jaws securely close fixings such as spring ends and box crimps. | ||
| Round Nose | ||
| Making wire loops and wrappings is easy with round nose pliers. You can use them on plain wires or eyepins and headpins for a professional-looking finish. | ||
| Bead Design Board | ||
| Lay out your beads before stringing them: with size markings to let you know how long your finished item will be, the board can be used for single- and multi-stranded necklaces and bracelets, and has handy recesses to store beads in whilst you are designing your item. | ||
| Micro-Fibre Beading Mat | ||
| An essential item to stop your beads rolling away whilst you are working. Use it with the design board and never lose another bead! | ||
