"I don't know if this has been helpful"... I just bought on eBay the glue, 2 sizes of magnets, and a whole selection of metal brooches! So YES, this has been helpful and inspiring. THANK YOU. 🌷🌷🌷🩷🩷

It’s fun to see when you recorded this! Thanks for the handy tips :)

Thanks so much for this how to video on needle minders! I am definitely going to try and make a few. They are so expensive to purchase on etsy. Making my own would be more personal and cost effective!

Love your Needle minders. Yes they are so easy to make. Have a nice stitching time.

Another informative video. Even if you prefer to buy your needle minders its nice to make them out of special objects like the lady bug and brad from the Christmas card.

Loved this video. I love doing a lot of different crafts.

Thank you so much!!! I was trying to make some and my Magnets weren’t strong enough in my glue wouldn’t hold. You answered all my questions. You are the best I love your videos. And also your personality. 💕🌺 take care. Diana

E6000 is the best glue ever. I used to make jewelry and used E6000 all the time. Guess I need to go find some pretties to turn into more needleminders💕💕

Thank you, What a Fun and Fast easy project to make your own, since the needle minders I've been seeing are pretty pricey Im going to make some

Enjoyed the how to make a needleminder video. Learned how to correctly make one. They are all beautiful.

Thank you very much as always . I really love the ideal of making my own needle minders. Especially where money is very tight. As always you did a awesome job. Keep the videos coming.

That was very informative. Love the dragon holding the candy cover minder.

Thanks so much fOr showing us the making of needle minders

Love all of them, but the lady bug is my favorite.

Thank you for sharing this it saved me a lot because people want sooooo much for this.

Nice idea. The spider looks great. Thank you.

I really appreciate the links to the magnets!

Very helpful tutorial! Thank you!

Thanks for this video. I have a little red metal stand with a center section that's black metal (supposed to be used as a chalkboard) that I scored at Michael's a month or so ago. I recently added a finished x-stitch project to the top portion of the chalkboard and am planning to use the bottom portion as a place to store my needleminders. However, I don't actually have any needleminders ;-) so have been wanting to make some for myself. I'll hit up Hobby Lobby for some E6000 and doodads to turn into needleminders and hit up amazon for the rare earth magnets and then get busy making needleminders. Thanks again, Danielle!

Thanks! Tried to make a needleminder but the glue didn’t hold. I’ll get the glue you use and try again. Helpful video and great needleminders - love the crown!

Thanks for the tutorial!

Thanks for the video! One question... it looks like the dragon stitch minder is holding your needles between the stitch-minder and the fabric. I'm new to stitch minders - thought you just needed to put them on TOP of the stitch minder so the needle would be held there by the magnets. Is there a reason you put those ones between the stitch-minder and the fabric?

Love the butterfly and the ladybug they are cute.

Cute needle minders. You can use a Stengel tool to grind off the unwanted parts too if you don’t have a bench grinder

Great video!! Thank you for sharing. I have several pieces from the pork chop show and was wondering if you treat them with a clear coating before using them as a needle minder?

Thanks Stitcherista,Bill!Ihave no needleminders so maybe I can make one!

Thanks for doing this video. Do you think that glue would be good for fixing earrings?

Thank you. Want to make for holding DP'S in place.

Thank you to you and your husband for showing such great detail on how to do this. 👏🏿👏🏿 I'm new to stitching and I don't even need many needleminders BUT I love them so I was interested in how to do it. I wonder if I could use the pet nail grinder thing to grind them down.

Use a clothespin to hold the magnet against the item till it dries. That’s what I use.

They are really cute. How are you getting them to stick to the fabric? Thank you :)

Hey now you can use these for your diamond paintings. 😍😍😍

I use a file on the metal ones to smooth down where i cut off bales or brooches

Also can you help me with what size of magnets I should buy.🌺

First of all thank you =) and yes you are right needle minders are not expensive when u live in the states I am only in Canada which is just next door but the shipping is crazy so in the end your needminer comes out to about 20 bucks . hmmmmm no thats crazy price , so I have no choice but to make em , even canada shipping is insane 10.00 . like what? no I refuse to pay it

What material do you use to take the back on the needleminder? Love the tuto by the way. It's very helpful

I bought the same crown and spider at Hobby Lobby. I ended up throwing away the crown because the end tines broke off. And my spider ended up with six legs, too! The top legs broke off. But I kept it although it is no longer technically a spider with only six legs.

Nice!!! Love the Ladybug!

Love the video. Is the Earth magnets from Amazon? Do you have a link for them? I bought some from Hobby Lobby but they aren't strong enough for them to hold. Thanks!!

THANKS! I've been wanting to make a few myself.

I'm kinda glad I don't make needle minders now, haha...... Great information however, and sweet hubby for his tools. :)

Six-legged spider. . .heheheh (Ok, not so funny if it was a live one. That'd be cruel. But it's not, so it is funny. ;) ) Thanks for the video. I did make my first needle minder and its great to see that I had the right idea. :D I have 2 more to make - just using the bare magnets at the moment. I'll have to look into getting some of those rare-earth magnets for the next round. I'd love to be able to buy some needleminders too. But at this point they're so expensive. Every time I look, they're like $10 - $25 That's crazy!! (Worse if they're from the States and whatever I buy is *nearly* double with exchange and postage. ugh.) So making them it is. Which works. I can get what I like that way.

Thank you

I love your dragon needle minder.where did you buy it

Enjoyed your video on how to make Needle Minders and thankyou it was very helpful

Great way to repurpose! I'll give it a try.

So the magnets are strong enough to go thru even that lady bug?

Hi will the magnet be strong enough to attach the needle over the wood pieces? Or does the needle go between the two magnets? Love your needle minders .

what size are the magnets that you are using

Someone told me to buy neodynium magnets. So off i go to amazon and accidently bought 1.26” diameter ones! They are huge compared to yours! And with bug size comes a much stronger power! What should i do??

Will the needle stay on the wooden butterfly

The lady bug is fabulous. 🤗🙏💜💜💜

You could also use a metal fingernail file to sand down the nubs.

What sizes do you get for magnets? I looked at Amazon but numerous choices

Where do we go to see the video on how each of these you just made on this video actually held the needles, to make them needle minders? TY 😊

Thanks...

Check out mamma Metzger. It's a new flosstubber and very excited .

Does the needle stay

Thanks for sharing....E6000, illegal in Europe...alternative suggestions?

Hi I was watching your utube but you did show us how the needle would stay on the wooden butterfly , I know on mental the needle will stay but what about even the plastic lady bug. To me the video was incomplete please show.

I like to support my fave flosstubers anyway I can. SoI came to your page to find the products on Amazon (magnets and glue)to give you credit...but you didn't put any links!! 😞great video though and I look forward to your videos.

Where did you get the magnets that and if you buy your needle minders where do you buy a man
