50 of the best jewellery making kits

Jewellery making kits are ideal if you're looking to try out a new craft as they contain everything you need, ready to get making straight from the box. Jewellery making kits are also fantastic gifts – either as the kits themselves or by gifting your own DIY jewellery that you've made.

Once you get a feel for jewellery making, you can branch out and buy other jewellery making supplies, or simply top up those items you've run out of.

Jewellery making kits are therefore a great place to start - or if you're returning to the craft after some time off. Have you spotted any jewellery making kits that we have missed? Let us know in the comments below!
