Tip of the Week

What`s in the toolbox?

Here are the tools I always keep in my toolbox: Thread in various types, colors, and sizes, beading needles, extra-long beading needles, small scissors, thread conditioner (Thread Heaven or bees wax), ceramic watercolor trays, an emery board, and clear nail polish for sealing knots. I also keep two pairs of small pliers nearby: a pair of needle-nose pliers (for pulling a needle through a tight bead) and wire cutters, in case I need to break a bead in the middle of my piece.
