Use Eyepins to Enjoy Jewelry Making Fun


When you see the eyepins, you will realize why people give them such a name. It is really ikonic. As a functional jewelry finding, eye pins are widely used in making necklaces, bracelets, earrings and anklets. They are available in different colors and sizes so that they are suitable for any simple or complicated designs.

How do the eyepins work in jewelry making? When you want to use some jewelry findings to link your beaded sections to each other, the eyepins will be good choice, as we all know that eyepins are a type of jewelry findings with a loop or eye on one end and straight wire on the other end.

To jewelry makers, eyepins belong to handy jewelry findings, as you should use them for many of your jewelry designs. But once you have no eye pins handy, what should you do? The answer is making them yourself, of course. You can easily make them from either straightened wire. I am sure many people have known how to make eye pins by using jewelry wires, so I won’t repeat is. I will tell you a new method to make your own eye pins. Once you have no wire handy but only have head pins, you can make the eyepins by snipping off the head of the pin first. One reason you may wish to make your own eyepins out of head pins is to take advantage of volume pricing. Some jewelry shops will offer discounts on larger orders of individuals, such as head pins. You can order more head pins make eye pins as you need them. Of course, the easiest way to get cheap eye pins is wholesaling them from a reliable, larger jewelry beads and jewelry findings wholesaler, like PandaHall.com, to save both money and time.

Well, some people may say:” I found some pins are slight bent out of shape when I received them?” Don’t worry, this situation is normal. Pins always come slightly bent out of shape. Some remain straight, but you will always find bent pins in your packs. However, they are easily straightened using your round nose pliers, or even just your fingers. You can consider it a sign of quality also, as good quality pins will bend, not snap.

Jewelry making is a fun hobby and won’t be a costly hobby if you find a good way to save money. Make jewelry with some eyepins can help you to create fabulous designs as long as you have superb ideas. Use eyepins to enjoy your jewelry making fun.
