Bargain Bead Box September 2023! DIY Necklace and Earrings Tutorial 🏔️🏔️🏔️ 

Wendy has a place in all of our hearts.

It was sad when I found out. I followed her from her very first video to present day. And everytime I hear the word koreana chain, lol I always think of her.. God bless her she was a sweetheart of a person

Yesterday I met Wendy’s group of Florida jewelry makers at the Orlando bead show and we all fell in love with a Lampwork artist and purchased special beads from her. Thank you for the reminder about putting those ceramic beads with those things. I am going to do that!

Getting the box made me think of Wendy as well. She is missed by so many people.

There’s a little surprise coming on Wendy’s channel and I hope it will be something that helps everyone who is feeling the void since Wendy is not with us anymore. I watched her videos faithfully just like I watch your videos Brittany and I was so happy that you mentioned her today 💕

We all have Been affected by Wendys passing. It has been so hard on everyone. I have been watching her videos still almost everyday. I've learned a lot from her. She was a very sweet woman. The necklace is very pretty. I did not use the bead caps in my designs so far with these beads. I didn't really think they went well with these particular beads. But I did like your use with them on the earrings . Very nice! Thanks for sharing 🤗 Syndy

I remember the video where Wendy was told she should open her bags like that!

Love all your creations, Brittany. You have a great eye for combining design and color. I copied the 1st necklace I made from one of your designs. It is still one of my favorites. Thank you foir sharing.

I taught Wendy that trick with the bag opening slide. I had to figure out a way to open them without killing my hands. I have bad arthritis and it helps keeping my flares down 😃 I miss her too.

Lovely pieces, Brittany! I’m also thinking of Wendy … and Sadie. Have a great day. Hello Goldie!

I saw this box and I knew she would love it. I made a necklace in her honor with my box and I absolutely love it

Love how you found the color out of those dark beads and turned them into gorgeous pieces! I'm so glad Chris and Joee are keeping Wendy's videos going, because it will feel like we still have a part of Wendy with us!! Miss her so much; it still hurts so! 🥹

The purple is from the "purple mountains majesty, from sea to shining sea". And I know this is a few days ago, and I’m sure you’ve heard Wendy’s good friend as well as her husband have decided to possibly keep her channel alive with her good friend. Chris said he thought long and hard about it, and felt it was the right thing to do, but he wanted our thoughts on it, I think it’s a wonderful tribute to her. Just hope they change the music or I definitely won’t be able to watch because I would be crying to much. Like I did today watching, the music did me in from the get go. No I haven’t gotten my mojo into beading back going again. 😢 one day I’m sure I will, but until then I watch y’all’s videos. I love what ya made, it’s beautiful. And hi miss Goldie we love ya. Tfs hugs to y’all.

Love what you created. I always look forward to your videos and Goldie! ❤

Purple mountain majesty!!! 💜⛰️ I loved the lilac, pink beads, & faceted ones. I liked those bead caps too. Hopefully they'll offer them in bronze, or other metal colors. I do like that BBB is doing more stainless. Lava beads, give me heebie jeebies for some reason. I love making green jewelry but I don't ever wear green jewelry.. Also, I started opening my baggies that way after watching you. Wendy will always be in our hearts. 🩷🐚🪸 She touched a lot of people.

The necklace is pretty.

Hi Brit..Can you please tell bargain bead box to ship to Australia...they used to but they atopped cause of covid...but they havent reinstated it yet...i have contacted them and they said theyre looking for a courier but that was a while ago...please bring the matter up....thankyou xx

Heeeeey Goldie Girl

Beautiful words for Wendy & a beautiful set of jewelry

My fancy jasper beads had some purplish colors in the strand, so the purple works with mine. I love how you used the pebble beads as a focal with the round beads and crystals!

Wendy will be missed so very much. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and your memories of her. It's difficult to fathom how and why someone as sweet and as wonderful as Wendy could be here yesterday and then gone the next day. I have been very emotional about it. I know you were very close and I am sorry for your loss!

I too started opening bags like Wendy! I will remember her for this and also her little laugh and ooos and aaahs as she opened her bead boxes.

Love these! This box is a great one... I love jasper LOL. I also learned to open baggies like that from Wendy. She will always be in our hearts forever

Love this box! We will def miss Wendy!

I miss Wendy so much...my heart is broken 💔 😢

I know it hurts the memory of Wendy!

Lovely collection Britany enjoyed watching thank you.

Thank you for sharing your gorgeous necklace and earrings set’s. Thank you information about Wendy also

OMG the bags…..I started opening them like that too after watching Wendy!! It is so much easier. I miss her.😕 And whenever I see the monthly BBB has your very favorite bead, the bicone, I laugh and think of you!!! Sometimes, I literally laugh out loud when I see those darn bicones!!😅

Thanks for sharing Brittany. I had the same reaction to the "bag opening"! Love your designs!

I miss Wendy a lot, I subscribed to her channel a very long time ago and her tutorials became a big part of my beading life. Love your necklace. I've only just got this month's box (I live in the UK) and interestingly I got faceted AB finish grey/purplish rondelles with mine, not the smooth, almost lilac colour ones you had. Did anyone else get those instead?

Omg the chain impossible cutting it. Looking for memory wire cutters, ugh

Beautiful design ❤️ especially the Earrings 🎉😊

Haha, I thought it was just me putting the rainbow iris in the purple drawer. You got a stunning donut pendant, especially with the blue tones. Mine is full on moss agate, so I am not mad, bc I do like that moody, dark green. Fancy jasper strands are always hit or miss as to how much green there is. The 6mm strand was so varied. Gotta love it. I really loved what you made, but especially the compass earrings. It is 100oF here in Tucson, so I don't dare look to see how hot it is for you. Seriously, this summer will NOT end. Stay cool.

Your videos were the first ones I started to watch, I used your code to start my Bargain Bead Box about 2 years ago. Wendy’s was also one I’ve been watching for a long time. I haven’t been able to watch her again yet, I feel so bad for her family, although they have the faith that she’s with Jesus.

I feel so bad and have watched some of her videos because I always would wake up and see if she had posted anything and would watch whenever she did and then go run to my stash or make what she did with Bargain Bead 🎁. Missing you Wendy ❤

I didn't know where to go with this box until I saw your great tutorial as usual! Belly rubs to Goldie!

Do you ever take a hiatus from jewelry work? I’m feeling burned out.

Last months box and this months box are a bit scary for me, not used to dark colours, but I have found the items you made truly inspirational. I lol when you mentioned those damn little bags and pulling them apart to open them, I did that lol, until Wendy opened hers, amazing, it's the little things isn't it, she will be missed so much. Beautiful jewellery Brittany Thank You ❤🥀

So pretty, I like the style. Thank you for sharing.

Gorgeous necklace and love the earrings! REALLY love your pooch!! Adorable! ❤

I never met Wendy. I feel like I knew her. She was one of the first people that I subscribed to. My heart goes out to family and friends. I would have liked to have known her personally. I got a lot of good ideas from her and learned alot. She had a warm loving spirit that came through in her videos. Her love of the Lord and her family was a beautiful thing. I admired all the different crafts she did, seems like there wasn't any craft she couldn't do. I'm so glad you are carrying on for her, I think she would be proud that you are not going to let all of her hard work end and continue to use her channel to help others.

Absolutely awesome teaching and designing techniques. Love your soothing voice!❤ I love learning from you. My first box experience experience ever. Excited Newbie❤️ 💕

Like a lot of us, Wendy turned us onto this subscription, most of mine I still have sitting in their original bags. Years and years worth that I have not opened. I always watched your video and Wendy's videos and like to see the different ways you each went with the materials given. I am thinking i have to start opening these bags up, MAYBE...one day. Beautiful pieces made today. ❤️

Great pieces🤩🤩💖

What happen to Windy I so miss her already sorry

Very pretty but too close in.
