Prevent Allergy to Jewellery with Jewelry Shield

One in four people has an allergy to alloys present in costume and fine jewelry, glasses, watches, even clasps and snaps found on clothing. They suffer itching and skin irritation. Even more people react adversely to metals: their skin turns black, green, or suffers from an itchy rash

Brushing transparent Jewelry Shield™ onto jewellery and metal accessories creates an invisible shield protecting sensitive and allergy-prone skin

Thanks to Newall's Jewelry Shield™, you can now wear your jewellery without allergic reactions. Jewelry Shield™’s specially patented formula lasts much longer than any other product or remedy available. One application lasts three months, longer than competing products or even clear nail polish.

Bees wax cakes

Conditioning Thread using Bee's Wax
Means stretching the thread and coating it with beeswax. This reduces fraying, tangling and makes sure that gaps don’t appear in the beadwork after it has been worn. Bees wax is ideal for jobs that call for very stiff tension. Use it for brick stitch, weaving or free-form vessels.

To condition thread, place the thread between your thumb and the wax, and pull the thread through. Then press the thread firmly between your thumb and forefinger and pull the thread through quickly. The tension created between your thumb and forefinger does two things: it stretches the thread, and it creates heat and helps work the wax into the thread.

Wire Knitter/Wry Knittr

The Wyr Knittr™, the newest innovation for crafting with wire, uses 28-, 30- or 32-gauge wire (see gauge table) to knit tubular mesh for making jewellery, and embellishing scrapbook pages. The Wyr Knittr™ also knits in beads by just dropping them through the centre of the machine into the wire mesh. Or thread the wire with seed beads or small bugle beads for even more interesting projects. The knitted mesh can be flattened, compressed, braided, folded, twisted and more. The Wyr Knittr kit even includes an innovative spool clip for keeping wire on spool while knitting and five project patterns. Want step by step instructions? - click here
