How to choose the best beginner earring kit
With so many earring making kits out there, it can be hard to find the right one. Here are a few key things to look for when choosing the right kit for you:
- Find quality materials that last - You should get kits that provide proper tools, materials and clear instructions that simplify the process.
- Discover a variety of earring components and elements - This way, you can experiment with different styles, including beads, gemstones, charms or different wire or chain options for creating various looks.
- Make sure your kit is beginner-friendly - Some kits can feel overwhelming with too many fiddly parts, so it’s important to choose one suited to your level! A good beginner-friendly kit should have pre-made components that require simple assembly and fewer specialised tools.
