Tips and Tricks

• When opening the pattern sheet, it's good to let it rest with weights so it can be flattend out.
• Organize the rhinestones into small containers. This will make it easier change from one rhinestone to another.
• Work in small section and only peel small parts at a time. This will keep the integrity of the pattern better.
• Use tweezers to remove wrong rhinestones on the pattern.
• Sometimes, it can be tricky to place stones in between stones already put. Apply a bit of extra pressure to slide the stone into place.
• When more stones are put, other stones can be pushed up, use a rolling pin to push all stone back in place and to make sure all stones are sticking well on the pattern.
