Review of the 1-Step Looper and the 1-Step Big Lopper from BeadSmith.
Pliers style wire jewelry making tool for being able to quickly make wire loops and eyepins.
Perfect tool for making polymer clay charms and dangles in one easy step.
Last year I made a Mistletoe Bracelet with tons of time consuming charms.
I show you the process of making a wire loop for a charm using regular jewelry making tools.
Two sizes available. 1-Step Looper makes a 1.5mm loop and the 1-Step Big Lopper makes a 3mm loop.
Small loop is suitable for small dangles and earrings, larger loop better for charms added to chain or for links.
I show you how to use both tools for making a beaded charm using beads made from the Art Sheet Technique Tutorial.
These Looper Tools will cut and shape wire from 26g to 18g. Though, for strength, I wouldn't use wire any smaller than 20 gauge. Smaller wires may be too flimsy and open up in use.
I purchased these tools at Shipwreck Beads.
