[Nfb-krafters-korner] Jewellery making

[Terry Powers]

Michaels sells a 6 piece kit for about $20, but you can get it for $10, if
you use a 50% off!
Make sure any kit you get has a seperat wire cutter from the pliers.  Teresa
tought us to get separate tools.  If they are one tool, you could cut your
wire, while intending to twist it.
The wire could slide into the cutting portion, easily!
I would like someone to teach us how to use pliers.  I usually had someone
twist the wires, for me, because of arthritis and I did not want to mess up
my work!
I would like to get back into simple jewelry!

Hi Daniella.
I have made jewelry.  I have used wires or stretchy elastic, mostly.  The
tools I used were needle-nosed pliers and wire-cutters.  Nothing tricky
about either of those.  I don't know what tools are in the Michael's kit,
but I do know a totally blind person can make nice jewelry.

Hello all, I had a question and was wondering if anyone would be able to
give me an answer. So I want to make myself an essential oil  diffuser
bracelet. While at Michael's today, I saw jewellery making kit which had
wire and clasps and tools in it.  Are there any totally blind people that
make jewelry? Is it possible for a totally blind person to learn how to use
all the tools with no cited help?   Thank you all.
