Thank you, Lauren! You do such a wonderful job on the curation of our bead bags and finding great bargains for the sister site! I couldn't afford many of the things you offer, if I had to buy them anywhere else. Lovely treasures!
Hi, I am a blind beater and you’re doing a fantastic job of describing all the different beads and washes, etc. Please don’t stop! Also, I can hear my wallet crying for mercy now all those gemstones!
I appreciate that you disclose color enhancements and clarify trade names. It does matter to some people and if I'm designing a piece for someone I'd like to offer that same transparency. Some people don't know and make it up as they go along. I'd rather hear I'm not sure than yeah THAT is what it is.
A beautiful necklace and earring set! I really think❤ this was a great box with the color combinations of beads and metal items. Thank you for the tutorial! Stay cool and have a great day!
They’re a 3-in-1 jewelry plier! I think I picked them up at a craft store years ago, maybe Joann? I have been asked this question so many times that I actually just reached out to my favorite tool factory to see if they can make me some like this soon! :D They’re sending me some samples. Hoping to be able to offer an affordable and high-quality plier like this soon!
Some days it’s not so bad, others I really feel it. It’s frustrating sometimes and I may never be a great wire-wrapper, but I will keep on doing what I love for as long as I can! 😊 Thanks so much for watching!
Yes, I would like to know what brand that tool is too! Your necklace is gorgeous. I love the double chain. I haven’t thought to do that before, but I will now! Also, have you ever used the one step looper? I have problems with my hands and fingers, and it’s a lifesaver sometimes for making easy loops.
I have had a 3-in-1 jewelry plier of some kind or other since I first started making jewelry! This one might have come from Joann? I bought a one step looper, but couldn’t get it to make the loops as close to the beads as I wanted them! Is there a brand you would recommend? 💕 Thanks so much for watching!!
I’ve always seen them labeled as 3-in-1 jewelry pliers and I’ve had a pair since I first started making jewelry 20 years ago! This pair may have come from Joann?
I actually just reached out to my favorite tool manufacturer to see if they can make me some with the handle style I like best! They’re sending me samples. Hoping to carry some pliers like these soon!
Pure Perfection 🥰 ! I love the wrapped loop on the pendant! I think 7 is plenty, 13 loops is a lot to make at once. ❤ But I always do wrapped loops on dangles so I never loose one. Yes the antique bronze makes very sturdy findings, I have never used it before but I love it!
I think wrapped loops would be awesome on this pendant!! I struggle to make seven in a row during a tendonitis flare, but I do absolutely love the look of a wrapped loop. 💕 Thanks so much for watching!
