Here is a stone setting tip from @metalformsca - ā€œI often use painters tape to protect a piece of jewellery while stone setting. I’m not always as careful as I should be so taking preventative measures is always wise. The painters tape can prevent accidental scratches or scuff marks on already finished surfaces while I’m working around them.ā€ Thank you Kevin! This extra step is quick and can save you so much time and grief! šŸ™Œ #painterstape #jewelrymakingtips #stonesetting #stonesettingtips
