Gina love the earrings. Thank you for the tutorial. You teach so well making it seem very easy to follow. I will try making these. Thanks for your generosity 🙏🙏
Gina, I have to tell you that I absolutely love these earrings. They are quick and use common beads that most of us have already in our stash. I appreciate you using beads that are more common and not the newly released types for several reasons. My funds are tight and it forces me to use up what I already have. Thanks again. All my best Sally in Pennsylvania
Hi Sally, I agree with you as not all of us can afford these new beads. Just like you ,I have a small budget and have to be very careful with how I spend it. Living here in OZ (Australia) I find that it is not so much the price of the beads themselves but the postage and also the money change rate that makes it hard for me to buy. Some of my suppliers have not bought them as of yet but even then I think they will be dear as they are special beads. Chris.
Hi Sally, I too like to use what's in my stash. I like new beads too, but sometimes I don't want to spend a fortune on them when I have so many beads I could use, new types or not! Have fun.
I used this lovely pattern to make some Christmas earrings. I used silver pearls with Siam ruby 11s and emerald green 15s . They are beautiful and sparkly! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you Gina, these earrings are beautiful love your videos so easy to follow you. Can't wait for the bracelet looked so pretty thanks for the sneak peak of your bracelet.
I am happy you like them! I have started the bracelet video, it will be up and running in a day or two. I am running a bit behind in schedule but, I promise it's coming!
Hi dear Gina, i really like these Beautiful Earrings & see you back on utube because i have miss you my friend! Thank You for this project & your Bracelet is Gorgeous can't wait to watch this one too! The colors you have choose for these Earrings gave an Elegant look of these so Thank You & have a wonderful Day!
They are show cased them fabulously dear Gina,i never worked whit Druks but after i've watch your Design's whit these Drucks i will order some,Thank yhou my friend!
Gina, I think I can already see that I could make a bracelet from 4 or 5 sets of two. Duplicate the earrings 4 or five times. It could work. These are cool.
These earrings and bracelet are stunning! (As are all of your designs.) My question is, how would I make a necklace? Would I just follow the pattern of the earrings and make it long? Thank you in advance for your answer. And thank you for all the lovely videos! Your talent and designs are beautiful.
Hi Gina, Wow, they are elegant and chic. I will be starting them as soon as I have finished this comment - (the housework can wait). You have wet my appetite with the bracelet and I hope it's not to long before you post it. It looks out of this world. Knowing you the necklace will be just as grand as all of your other ones and I can't wait to not only seeing it but do it also. I hope all has been well for you as I haven't seen you for a while. Have missed you my friend. As always thanks for the video. A big kiss or Hunter. Chris.
Hi Chris, I thought I replied to your comment, but evidently not. I am happy you like this enough to make the housework wait...housework is no fun! Not when beads are calling your name! I would love to see them. Hunter says "Hello darling!" He is a bit stuffy. LOL.
I love these earrings they are so cute. And the bracelet looks lovely to but I wanted to ask I don't like thick bracelets so could I make the bracelet in a single row and not double?
Hi Gina, I want to compliment you on your wonderful videos. You are always thorough and take the time to ensure your subscribers know what to do step by step. I have been making jewelry for a couple of years but only recently started sewingwith beads and that is in no small part due to your videos. Do you think you could use these diamonds and connect them into a necklace?
Yay, I am glad you've started weaving. I love it. I too started making anything but bead weaving jewelry because I thought it would be tedious. But now it's pretty much all I do. There are so many creative options, I never find it boring!
Hello, thanks for the nice comment. I have used silk to knot pearls. I most often use Fireline or recently Nanofil, because they are strong, easily found in sporting goods stores and affordable when bought at sporting goods stores.
Hi Gina these are lovely earrings I have a question I am out of 6mm pearls and I cant get any rite now ill but I do have some 6mm fire polished rounds can I substitute them for pearls please say yes lol
Oops Smallkitty I deleted your comment! Oops, I didn't mean too. I accidentally wrote the wrong name so I wanted to change my response and BLAM! The whole thing, gone. Sorry!
Arron Ewer Well, I guess that answers the question about Miyuki beads. I think round Miyukis should be fine. But Deicas are just too square. They work fine in weave like peyote and herringbone but not others. Miyuki does make round seed beads. I know there are beaders that will only use Miyuki, that's fine, but they need to know the difference between Delica and round. I am sorry it did not work for you.
if i couldn't pull it tight enough and there was too much thread showing woulndn't that make the miyuki's smaller than the toho's... just incase anyone does try this with miyuki beads and is having the same trouble
