The Bracelet Helper

bracelet helper for handmade jewelry

$5.00

These are amazing! These are the perfect solution for anyone who has bracelets. They make putting on bracelets soooooo easy...It's so easy, it's almost cheating.

This completely takes away the frustration of bracelets, without having to have new clasps put on every bracelet you own.

Bracelet Helpers are easy to use:

  1. Attach the Bracelet Helper onto the ring of your clasp.
  2. Wrap the bracelet around your wrist, while you hold the Bracelet Helper as shown.
  3. Open the clasp and hook it on the ring.

That's it!

The Bracelet Helper opens and closes easily, yet holds your bracelet firmly. Colors come in red, blue and green (it just depends on what's in stock.)





Strong Magnetic Clasps

magnetic clasp for handmade jewelry
$9.00

These magnetic clasps are both very secure, and easy to use. They are an ideal solution if you have difficulties using clasps due to arthritis, etc.

To test these magnets, I put one on a bracelet of mine (without a safety chain), and one on a heavy sterling necklace. I did this a year or two ago, and not once have either the necklace or bracelet fallen off. Let me add that I have three young children...and still with all the playing and fun times, the clasps held.

When used for bracelets, I add a safety chain for extra security. Obviously this isn't practical for necklaces, but the customers that have these on their necklaces have been extremely satisfied.




Lightweight Magnetic Clasp

$5.00

Also great for people with arthritis, this smaller magnetic gold clasp is perfect for light chains and necklaces with a pendant. (The magnets at the top of the page are too strong for all but the heaviest chains.)



SIDEBAR
Magnetic Clasps
  • Ideal for anyone whose hand motion is impaired.
  • To remove, pull the clasp, not the jewelry.
  • Can be put either on any necklace I make, or on a necklace you or a loved one has had for years.
  • Do not use magnetic clasps if you have a pacemaker or ICD (or work in a pushpin factory).






S-Clasp

sterling clasp for handmade jewelry
Free with purchase
$5.00 to replace an existing clasp

These are my personal favorites for neckaces.

If you prefer an S-clasp, these can be put on a necklace that you buy from Quality-Handmade-Jewelry.com free of charge. If you would like to have this clasp put on a necklace you already own, the charge is $5.00.

These S-clasps are very easy to use and are also secure. Not only are they excellent solutions for troublesome clasps, but they are functional, beautiful and unique. I have several of these on necklaces I own and find them extremely easy to use.




Toggle Clasp

sterling toggle clasp for handmade jewelry
Free with purchase
$2.00 to replace an existing clasp

If you prefer a toggle clasp, these can be put on a bracelet or necklace that you buy from Quality-Handmade-Jewelry free of charge. If you would like to have this clasp put on a bracelet you already own, the charge is $2.00.

These toggle clasps are very easy to use but are not as secure. They are good with necklaces, and are secure for bracelets if the bracelet fits well. (They can come undone if the bracelet is too large.) I have a toggle clasp on one of my favorite bracelets, and have never had any trouble.

People tend to either love or hate these clasps. If you're one who loves them (I do), they are available.
