Thank you for naming that, my poor old brain was struggling to remember the name of that piece. And I love the bracelet set as well--fascinating to watch you work through the process!
Love the way you work. I like working that way too. Its more freestyle to me. I have wondered about using crimp beads on stretch bracelets but was never brave enough to try it...Now I will. Loved the background music 😉. Very soothing.
Great beads. I love the balance. I have had better success by using “eye” pins to hook the cord and then put the pin thru the conical bead caps. No fussing with crimp beads. I also put a dab of E6000 on the eye pin/cord knot to secure. We all so love your positive energy & spunk.
I learn something new I each of the videos you. I never would have thought you could use chain in a stretchy bracelet. And yes I would never thought to us a crimp.
I would love to see how you come up with things for the budget bead box this month. How about a video on how you make this month pieces? That would be fun 🎉
I adore these and your way of making them. I always seem to have a hard time finding the list that's needed on videos. I was hoping to see the specific type sz of stretch magic that you're using. Mine doesn't seem to look like yours.
They are so pretty! I love the colors and the beads you chose. It never fails. When I'm trying to attach the ear wires or the posts, I always get them backwards the first time. Could be cuz I'm dyslexic? So frustrating. The entire video, I was talking right along with you. You: "Let's see. Should I put this this way?" Me:"Yes!" You: "I don't know if I should do that or this." Me: "Do that!" Lol! I don't know if other people do that or if I'm just a weirdo. Anyway, I love these! 🤗💕
I have days like this 85% of the time this last month. Every single time I sit down nothing works right or fits or I can't find what is right under my nose. Hahaha
You scar me when you trim the eye pins. I’m afraid that wire that flies off is going to get you in your eye. Try putting your index finger of your right hand over the wire to keep it from flying. I love the bracelet especially the color and that focal is a real beauty. Thanks for posting. I enjoy you videos.
Wendy, have you thought about using a collapsible needle when stringing elastic cord? The eye will accommodate the thickness of the cord, but will collapse to fit smaller hole beads. Love that design, a lot more interesting than just a one-strand elastic bracelet. Thank you!
Very beautiful as always Wendy. I absolutely love those big fire polish green beads. Would love to know where she got them. When the knot doesn't want to tie, try over hand knot then under hand. Hopefully that will work
I know you said that the Streatch Magic never unknotted on you before, I was wondering why you were knitting it instead of putting a bead stopper on it or a piece of tape , then
I was knotting it because I was doubling it to make two strands to make it stronger. I needed to be able to pull it through the beads and pull hard to make sure it was taut. f I used a bead stopper or tape, I woudnt be able to pull as hard as I wanted to . I hope ths makes sense lol
Love your style! And I just finished ordering beads from the site. I can not wait to receive them. And I look forward to seeing how you made the necklace!
Patti Cakes This is the way most creative people work. They sit down with one thing in mind, and end with something completely different and better than their original idea. Being too organized doesn't allow your creativity to flow. It becomes too rigid and mechanical.
That is just the way I create. It's not organized or perfect but usually something nice comes out of it. I don't now, and will never edit my videos. I feel that it is important to show that NONE of us are perfect, we all mess up and one of us have the organization down to a science. There are plenty of RU-vidrs out there with perfect, edited videos and no mistakes. That is not what my channel is all about. If that's what you are looking for, you won't find it here 😀
