How to Make a Jewellery Workstation

To get started on my journey into the jewellery making business, the first thing I had to make was a workstation. Visiting my local bead shop Yellow Brick Road in Dublin, I purchased some Swarovski beads, a necklace tray and a pliers set.

After I got home with my new equipment I started working on a portable jewellery workstation so that I could get working on my creations.

Using a large hamper box lid, I constructed my first studio/workstation. It has everything I need within easy reach:

• Silk threads clipped to the left side for easy access
• Tools on a shelf for organisation (made from shoe box lid)
• A necklace tray with sorting compartments to prepare designs
• Magnet to hold needles
• Sharp tools holder (made from old makeup pouch)
• Third hand (made from bent clothes hanger), attached with cable ties.
• Pens holder & bin cup (old shot glassses)
• Ruler
• Findings etc clipped to right
• Bead cups for organizing (milkshake lids)
• Polish cloth

I am ready to get creating!

Please leave me a comment if you have any questions or suggestions.
