FAQs:
Whether you’re going for elegance or something a little more daring, craft mirrors and stud spikes are a great way to show off your personality and artistic taste.
What are craft mirrors, and how are they used?
Craft mirrors are reflective, flat-back acrylic or glass pieces that add sparkle and dimension to DIY projects, costumes, décor, and accessories. At Planet Rhinestone, we carry round craft mirrors and small mirror tiles that are lightweight and portable enough to be incorporated into any craft, from bedazzling vases and centerpieces to blinging out jewelry and headbands.
What are stud spikes, and how do they differ from rhinestones?
Stud spikes are metal or metallic-finish spikes that are used to add edgy accents, and they can be pointed or slightly rounded. Unlike rhinestones, stud spikes emphasize texture and dimension rather than adding shine alone. Use them to adorn ready-to-wear denim and leather pieces for a punk-inspired touch, or customize your plain shoes and handbags to create an outfit that leaves a memorable impression. As an added benefit, stud spikes are also highly affordable and easy to use.
Can craft mirrors and stud spikes be glued onto fabric?
Yes, most of our craft mirrors and stud spikes are designed for glue-on application with the adhesive of your choice. To ensure longevity, use a heavy-duty craft glue like fabric cement, E6000, or resin. Some of our products are also compatible with hot-fix tools. For best results, we recommend performing a patch test with your chosen adhesive to ensure your glue won’t react with the different materials involved in your project.
Are craft mirrors a suitable product for performance costumes or dancewear?
Absolutely! Craft mirrors and stud spikes are popular in performance costumes, cheer and dance uniforms, and festival outfits. Small mirrors and spikes can be clustered together to create an eye-catching effect under bright lights, making them especially useful for the stage or the performing arts. Combine round mirrors and spikes of different sizes in an original pattern that can be recreated for a dance team uniform. Alternatively, add a sparkling embellishment to a pageant gown that will dazzle judges and audience members alike. Because they’re inexpensive and easy to source, the possibilities are virtually endless.
Do you offer bulk or wholesale pricing on mirror kits and studs?

Members of our wholesale program receive discounted pricing on all orders above $300, along with access to exclusive, wholesale-only promotions that aren’t available to retail customers.

How should I care for items decorated with craft mirrors or stud spikes?
Take extra care of your decorated items by hand-washing or spot-cleaning when possible. Avoid high heat, harsh chemicals, and washing machines, as these can degrade the adhesive and loosen mirrors and spikes. Neglecting proper care can also cause your embellishments to become dull and lose their shine over time. Heavily soiled items should be soaked in a weak detergent solution, rinsed, and laid flat to dry. When not in use, store your embellished items in a garment bag or box to keep the dust off and protect them from snagging on other items.
