Jump rings are elevated to a new level at the Blue Buddha Boutique. Blue Buddha’s jump rings come in a variety of metals, colors, diameters and wire gauges. You can go classic metal in sterling, copper, brass and steel or punch it up a bit with color mixes such as the Persian Rug and Earth Mixes.
Now maybe you’re inspired to design with jump rings. Try chain maille. Blue Buddha Boutique offers well-written, easy to learn free tutorials that enticed me to try my hand at mail.

So, I’ve bookmarked the site. Thanks for posting about it – getting a kit with all the right components and instructions is exactly what I’ll need!

August 30, 2008 at 2:41 pmI really like Blue Buddha products. I like that they are the best US seller of jump rings. I do use the Ring Lord as well, depending on my needs and my budget, but the color consistency is much better with Blue Buddha. Welcome to the world of chain maille. I found it addicting!!!
