My personal sugestion is find out ahead of time all the tools, costs ect each style is and go from there, take it slow as you progress you can always do more. I do simple stringing I find thats more my speed at the moment the rest take a whole lot more equiptment then the simple beading tools, but! None of this is cheep! If you want to go in that direction read up on all kinds of beading. My personal fav are the gem stones. Good luck

lol well speaking personally it is but its also fun and very interesting too. When you start you need to ask yourself what exactly you want to make theres a lot of different kinds of jewelry making. Such as beading, simple string is easier. Theres working with metal, gold, silver etc, theres clay metal, theres a ton just depends on what youd like to do if your not sure get a few different books at the library and see what looks intresting and what it all involves.

There are times when a visor is not practical, eg driving a car, climbing a mountain or even peeling a potato. The visor I use has a hinge so it can be moved out of the way. I first starting using one when setting a curb link bracelet with 1 pointers, 4 per link pave set. I was able to get the same standard of detail that I was getting with larger stones. So when you look at my work with your x10 lens you be happy. Maybe the mag’ is too strong if it’s getting in the way when your piercing.
