DD has asked for jewellery making equipment for Christmas. She doesn’t really know what she wants, but not ‘plastic beads’. She had lots of charm/ friendship bracelet type kits as a little girl.
I’m wondering where to start really! Happy to buy separate bits and put something together, or buy a ready made kit. She would like to make earrings I think, and probably brackets.
I’ve seen some lovely day courses nearby, but they are for age 16+.

Kernowcrft probably sell Beadsmith mini toolkits which make a lovely gift - 6 jewellery pliers in a zip case, very helpful when starting off. Spoilt Rotten Beads sell little kits for making specific things but the pliers are a great start.
