Iron On Crystals

Welcome to Rhinestone Biz!

Hotfix rhinestones are loose components with a flat reverse side that has been pre-coated with a heat sensitive glue. Hotfix rhinestones can be easily applied by heat or a range of textile carrier materials and produce a durable and long lasting crystal effect. Hotfix rhinestones are available in over 120 colors (depending on size), shapes and cuts. The most important single item in this product group is the Swarovski XILION rose, the new generation of brilliance. Rhinestone Biz carries a full line of iron on rhinestones. We have over 120 colors in sizes from (6ss, 8ss, 10ss, 12s, 16ss, 20ss, 30ss, 34ss, 40ss and 48ss). If you have come in search of hot fix crystals, you have come to the right place.

General Guidelines for Using Hotfix Rhinestones

Fabrics should be pre-washed and free of any chemical finish, such as water resistant treatments. When working with stretch fabrics, try to slightly pre-stretch the fabrics before applying hot fix crystals. Always test the application on a sample swatch or in an inconspicuous area.

Some general guidelines for using handheld Hot Fix wands or applicators, such as BeJeweler or Kandi Professional:

Note there are two types of tips included with most wands. Flats (spots) are designed for use with metals and Hot Fix shapes. When using these types of trims, you will place the trim on the garment and set the tool tip on top of the trim until the glue is heated.

The second type of tip is the concave rounded tip. These are for use with flat back rhinestones and pearls. The shape of the tip allows you to pick up the rhinestone with the tool. When the glue is melted, you will place the rhinestone on the fabric. Be sure to use the same size tip as the rhinestone size you are working with.

While the tool is heating up, get your rhinestones ready. For example, pour out some of the rhinestones onto a paper plate, glue side down. By doing this, the rhinestones are spread out and are easier to pick up with the hot fix wand. After you pick up the stone with the hot fix tool, you may want to angle the tool a bit so the stone does not fall out. Do not "slide" the rhinestone once you have placed it.
