Tools and Supplies

Making jewelry requires a love of shiny things, patience, and a willingness to make the same mistakes over and over again. It also requires a lot of stuff. Whether you have a studio or a bench set up in the corner of your living room, you will need all sorts of tools and supplies. Here are some that CJAS recommends.
