How to Set Crystal Rhinestones in Sew on Prong Settings

Before starting, please prepare a jewelry plier such as a chain nose plier or round nose plier.

Firstly, place your rhinestones into the claw setting tray.
Secondly, bend the 4 claws to fix the rhinestone tightly.
Thirdly, the 4 holes on the backing are applicable for sewing or stitching. And the flat metal back makes it easy for gluing or soldering.

How to Choose Rhinestones Properly for Prong Settings?

Sew on prong settings are compatible with pointed back rhinestones, not flat back rhinestones. Please remember, it’s the shape and then the tray size of the claw setting that determine what kind of rhinestones cabochons you’re going to choose.
