Helen's Tips on Packing Jewelry Tools for Travel - Jewelry Making Daily - Jewelry Making Daily

Protect Your Investment When Traveling to a Show or Class

Tools are an essential part of jewelry making. No matter what level maker you are—from occasional jewelry maker to full-fledged bench jeweler—you've probably spent a small fortune in acquiring the tools for your trade. And, if you're interested in learning more techniques, you'll probably take a class or workshop and end up carting your tools across town or, in my case, across the country.
