The first thing to consider when purchasing rhinestones is what size you need to purchase. This probably depends, in part, on what project you’re planning to do with your rhinestones. Rhinestones are measured in diameter and can range anywhere from 1 mm wide up to 8 mm wide. Some rhinestone sets are sold with all of the rhinestones being the same size, while other sets offer a mix of different sizes.
Another thing to consider is what color rhinestones you want. All rhinestones are shiny, but some will be shinier than others. Some color sets offer a mix of similar colors, while other sets sell only rhinestones that are all the same color. Typically, you’ll have several colors to choose from, so you can pick the choice that best fits your taste and preferences.
You may also want to think about how you’ll handle your rhinestones once you get them. In some cases, you don’t want to try and pick up the rhinestones by hand. Not only could this smudge or damage the surface of the rhinestone, but it may be hard to do if your rhinestones are smaller. This is where a pair of tweezers, or a similar tool, would come in handy. Some rhinestone kits will include a pair of tweezers for you to use to pick up your rhinestones, but not all of them will.
Lastly, you’ll want to think about how to store your rhinestones in between uses. Because rhinestones are so small, they can easily get lost if not kept together safely and effectively. Many of the rhinestone kits on this list include their own carrying cases. Oftentimes, these cases will include separate compartments for different-sized rhinestones, helping you easily find and store the individual size that you need. Perhaps you have your own box or craft kit where you plan to store your rhinestones when they arrive, but if you don’t, this may be something that you want to purchase separately or have ready if it isn’t already included with your rhinestones.

These crystals are not self-adhesive, so you’ll need to have some glue ready in order to properly apply them.
A: The most common adhesive used for applying rhinestones is glue. You can also apply rhinestones by hand sewing, using an iron or heat tool, or by metal settings. Some rhinestones are hot-fix, meaning they have a heat-activated fabric glue on the back, and some are non-hot fix. If your rhinestone is a non-hot fix rhinestone, which are also called flat-back rhinestones, you’ll need to use glue in order to properly apply them.
A: Some of the most common uses for rhinestones are decorating bags, shoes, clothes, phones, and nails. However, this is just the beginning of the endless list of possibilities for rhinestone use. You can use rhinestones on any surface that is flat and can hold adhesive material. You can make rhinestones into necklaces and headbands, or you can apply them to laptops, water bottles, toothbrushes, hairbrushes, drinking glasses, and more.
