Thanks so much! If you make these, please feel free to share your version on our Facebook group for beading and jewelry-making! Here is another fun and lovely earring video you may enjoy! www.potomacbeads.com/how-to/projects-tutorials/beadweaving-projects/PPBW1871.html
Bridgette! You are an EXCELLENT teacher! You zoom in at just the best times, you take your time and repeat so we can learn! Is there a way to know when you are teaching class? Thank you for doing such a wonderful job!
The tutorials are when we teach you how to make things. The live streams on Twitch are for playing around with beads to see if we can come up with possible design ideas. www.twitch.tv/potomacbeads
Oh, Bridgette, how creative you are!! Love these earrings, and even though they might be a little big for me to wear, I can see one of them placed on a piece of leather to make a necklace...Thanks, Bridgette, for sharing this lovely design with us.
These earrings are amazing! The colors are perfect!!! Love the antique brass pewter leaf toggles. I have these in gold. I'm going to try this anyways. ❤️❤️❤️
Wildfire is beading thread and I usually use 0.006". You're mixing it up with Fireline which is a fishing line and is sold by the weight of the fish you intend to catch. What's the better beading thread? WildFire vs FireLine - Better Beader Episode by PotomacBeads ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oxjaVzY2lhI.html
Hi Bridget, I like the earrings, regardless of whose design it was. I notice that the store was sold out of the toggles. Any suggestions on other sizes of clasps we can use?
Everyone is acting like Bridget came up with this idea of using toggles and findings for jewelry, when in fact a another beader did it first about a month ago, and she put it on RU-vid. Bridget and Potomac beads did not think of this, so the credit does not go to her. Not being a meanie but nowadays people are just trying to steal other people’s ideas and claim it as their own. I wish she did the right thing and gave credit to the correct RU-vidr. Edit: I had to find the correct name of the RU-vidr...her name is DV Beadiful. The credit goes to her for that idea.
Missy, brick stitch can be used around any suitable object whether they're findings or anything else. Just because Bridgette thought of using a toggle ring, doesn't mean she didn't think of it all by herself, so the credit for these earrings does go to Bridgette. Also, it isn't "stolen" since there isn't any original design involved nor any copyright infringement. If you had been watching Bridgette's live stream on Twitch, you would have seen her playing with ideas to make these several weeks ago. Findings are made specifically for jewellery making. I'm sure that in the five thousand years since humans have been making jewellery, thousands of people have come up with the same ideas.
PotomacBeads Um I don’t think so, I’ve been watching beading for a long long time and the use of findings were never used on your channel. And again, you said that Bridget was playing with the idea a “few weeks” ago, right after DV Beadiful posted her video so I know bridget saw that video. Come on, just whatever! I know my stuff and when I smell something fishy, I will call it out. You can deny it all you want, but I’m not going to believe, and neither will most people when they go to DV beadiful’s channel and check out the timings of the dates between her video and britdgets fake twitch video of her acting like she was “toying around” with the idea. Just give credit where it’s due and stop stealing. Edit: point in case, DV BEADIFUL posted it two months ago, lmao!
@@missyidontgiveacrap9939 we have never heard of that channel, but checked it it and couldn't find anything similar. This channel has 1500 different videos & projects created over the past 8 years. There really isn't a reason to go looking at what other channels are doing, when we have hundreds of projects in queue. Regardless, this is a basic stitch, attached a a basic component. The PotomacBeads channel also has a dozen other various other brick stitch projects over the past years: ru-vid.comsearch?query=brick+stitch
I wish you didn't tempt us with beautiful things like this when you don't have the things we need for it in shop, like the rondelles 1.5x2mm. By the time you get them I have probably forgot about these or you will be out of something else :/
Whenever we do a tutorial, everyone wants to make it, so the stock goes pretty quickly, but we have more on order. Make a notebook for the tutorials you want to make and when you have supplies ordered for a particular project. That way, when the items come in, you will know what they're for and can have fun beading. You can also be notified when an out of stock product comes back in store. You'll find the link for that on every out of stock item.
@@Potomacbeadco There's not even any 1.5x2mm rondelles showing up when I search for them, so I can't ask for notification. I see you have them on the USA site, but not in Europe.
Sessa Sparre You don’t need buy to make “their” interpretation of it. Check out DV Beadiful. You’d be surprised on what can be used. (DV Beadiful came up with it first) Since Potomac is so mad at me for saying this, don’t be surprised if they block me and I don’t respond, lol!
