Here is a tip to help you get your jump ring on that fine chain from @bayandstew - “One of our favorite tools to use in our jewelry studio is... a toothpick! Use a toothpick to stretch the links on your tiny chains so you can fit a jump ring.“ Thank you for sharing with us! This is also helpful when you generally have a misshapen jump ring which can be the case with some chains! #tipsforjewelers #jewelrymakingtip #tipoftheday #chaintips #jewelryproduction
