How to attach box clasps
• Kerri
Box clasps can substantially enhance the aesthetic appeal of an item of jewellery, particularly a necklace or bracelet. Fortunately, as described below, the technique used to attach box clasps is not especially difficult to master. A pair of flat nose pliers will be required for this job.
Begin by folding the end, you can double fold to give it a bigger body.

Place the fold into the box clap the close each side with the flat nose pliers.



Then trim any loose strands which stick out.
