yeah, Yeah, YEAH! Oooh - I really love these earrings! And as a bonus, everything tastes better out of glass bottles, so I’ll enjoy collecting the caps! 😅 Thanks for sharing these 💙
Oh my gosh this is just what I wanted to see ❤ both necklaces are so so beautiful. I'm so excited to try these. Thank you Linda this video made my day.
These are all so beautiful, you are so talented and you guessed exactly what I'm doing, I'm making key chains and I couldn't think what to do. Thank you for these great ideas.
I don't do templates, but you can research your own online. Look for something like 'Seahorse Template Printable' and you should find what you want: www.google.com/search?sca_esv=78370a10a4e1ca6f&rlz=1C5CHFA_enGB951GB952&sxsrf=ADLYWIL5NwBjEgdg_qPjMfuUtp-P4jOnLg:1723448346812&q=seahorse+template+printable&udm=2&fbs=AEQNm0BglSNKPbDQcL4Et01QEIYve0hELFbVSWiuPqv0f0AN4hcnVinVLzkA7fxLn8J4IS2hJNDBZf-ewg878esRjf6HLGVFV-Mw7wKCVSh50HFpOZvX1NIXFLk4s_lXe8cU2us3bd4WRbB-9hsjb9rGxrQxeGAUbVD42dX9SQKb629tfqsXTU8cpqLDqxktNjno9i3fjKv63tOtRz1CqDH2P-MNH6yZ1g&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwi_mYC0-e6HAxXjX0EAHXt9BAoQtKgLegQIFBAB&biw=1840&bih=854&dpr=2

It doesn't matter what size bugle beads you use. I just happened to have some 6mm ones and some of 10mm. There are never any fixed rules 😂 As long as the legs look decorative.
Hi Fama, you have already asked for SPIDERS and I'm just about to finish editing that tutorial for you. So look out for that soon! I also have a Dancing Skeleton Tutorial: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tT87hrGPhlo.htmlsi=veiwtB76X-n6yXga and if you check out my old blog posts, you'll get some more ideas: www.blogger.com/blog/post/edit/7995304298445331597/7502246407498700184 That's all I can do for the moment 🙏
❤This is amazing!!! thank you so much for this, Linda. Means so much! Love your designs. Now I need that Whammer. Is it distributed in the United States? I’m in northern Wisconsin.
Glad you like the tutorial 🙏 There are 2 versions of the Whammer, one just for wire (black handle) with 3 heads and another (blue) which is the Deluxe version with 5 heads (for metal stamps and texturing metal sheet). You can purchase these from amazon.com or direct from the BeadSmith in the U.S. www.beadsmith.com/HAM500 www.beadsmith.com/HAM501 You will also need a flat steel bench block to hammer on: www.beadsmith.com/BB24 You'll find everything in the States 😍
It's really depends on the thickness of your scarf. But yes, I wrapped it around a 24mm mandrel. And don't forget, that whatever diameter you wrap it around, it will end up a tiny bit bigger, as the wire coil springs open slightly. 🥰
Omg! Love all the awesome content! Your dragonfly design is one of the most popular sun catchers i make and sell. Thank you. I have a request for a Christmas tree with beads. I think you have a video on that.
Thanks, Jane 🙏 I will try and find time to make a video tutorial for the beaded Xmas tree. I have done a few versions over the years. Thank you for your request and I'll be back once it's ready for you. 🥰
