Foam Board Earring Jig

These jigs were designed to make it easier to use clay earring blanks, keychain hardware, or any other fragile thing you are knotting onto, with a foam board (like a macrame board) without damaging the item. This is especially recommended for earring blanks that don’t have enough flat area to be held in place with a clipboard jig, like the ones pictured. There are holes on either end for short pins to go through (like sequin pins) and hold the jig in place in the foam. Make sure the pins are pushed firmly in, as far as you can. It’s still not recommended to tug too hard at the strings while you knot, since the friction between the jig and the clay elements (if using a clay earring blank) could cause them to come off.

This jig comes with two pins in a separate bag.
