If you do not that eyelets try and make some. This will also work for shaped eyelets if you have small shaped punches. To make a realistic looking "eyelet" on a tag, punch a small circle and place it where you want your "eyelet". Glue it to the tag and then punch a hole through the circle and tag together.

One important thing to remember those who are new to eyelets . Make sure you are on a flat hard surface. You never want to be on a cushioned surface. You tools will never go through the papers/pictures you are working with.

When using your Crop A Dile, if you want to punch several holes in a row you can move up the metal pieces that are under the 1/8 and 3/16 dials. This lifts the lever so that you can rest your item on it and make a straight line of punches.

Elements on a page that fall in odd numbers seem to be more pleasing to the eye. Such as three or an odd number of tags, brads/eyelets, or embellishments arranged on the layout. Three or and odd number colors on a page also bring balance to a page.

Can't afford eyelet setting tools. Instead of punching a hole, use an Xacto type knife to cut an x about the size of the eyelet. Put the eyelet through the x by inserting it, of course, through the front of the paper so the x pushes to the back. Turn your creation over. Find a Phillips head screwdriver that just the tip, but not the rest of the screwdriver part, fits in the eyelet hole. Use a regular hammer, or a lightweight hammer to hit top of screwdriver. If only part of the eyelet set, take screwdriver out and reinsert it so the outer edges of the screwdriver bit goes against the sides that have not set yet. Hit it. Take screwdriver out and hit the eyelet itself a few times....works like a charm!

Never set eyelets on a glass cutting matt or board. It will crack.

Recycling for eyelet storage, Brads, beads and other little things I recycle the condiment cups that we get from our neighborhood fast food restaurants. They have covers and are see through.

Threading fiber through and eyelet. Take a short piece of wire (5" or so) and bend about the top 1" or so down so that it's parallel with itself. It looks sort of like a needle or a hook. Then, just put the fiber in the loop of the wire, and pull the wire through the eyelet.

use washers with your eyelets if you want to any movement on your page such as attaching charms or letter charms that you want to move.

Make a page with magic mesh and put some eyelets through the holes. Then "laced" the eyelets with ribbon.

Use an old/cheap cutting boards to set eyelets. Look for self healing ones.
