Here is a tip for when you are soldering bezels to your baseplates from @sweetbellajewelry - “If you’ve ever soldered a bezel upside on your backplate you know the frustration (not that I ever have 😬). To avoid this simple mishap I mark the tops of my bezels with shapie. That way as things get shuffled around on my bench I’m always sure to solder the right sides!” Love this extra step 🙌 thanks for sharing with us!! #solderingtips #stonesetting #bezelsettings
