Yes - I save containers for beads! I was just about to make some beaded flowers for a birthday gift next month and feel so fortunate that I decided to see what I could learn on youtube. I found you first and I'm so glad I did! Thank you so much.

@BeadFlora Год назад

Great to hear. Thank you :)

@Koehlerbear533 3 года назад

I loved the rose earrings and rings tutorials! Can you please show more ideas of pieces such as those that little girls would like? Maybe even necklaces? You are so talented and inspiring! Hope you are well!

@BeadFlora 3 года назад

Thanks you:) I love making jewelry! Did you see the tutorial that came out yesterday for the 4 leaf clover pendant?

@patsymcgrew3089 3 года назад

Thanks Fen, it was as if you were reading my mind! Ever since I purchased your book off of Amazon, I have been non -stop at trying to learn this art. But you save me tons of time with your videos! On a personal note (and I am sure I am not the only one) I need filler (greenery) for my meager arrangements. Did I dream this, or did you mention you were writing another book with those types of projects?

@BeadFlora 3 года назад

Hi Sherry! It makes me so happy to hear this! :) My second book is about "branches in bloom" so there are a few projects that will be great as filler greenery or can be used on its own in an arrangement. There are still more projects to design so I will keep your comments in mind.

@RayBMore. 3 года назад

Yes 😂 I keep containers for beads as well. My kids call me a pack rat 🐀 😂

@BeadFlora 3 года назад

omg...I am not alone. lol Unfortunately, my husband is just as bad with hoarding stuff 😬

@shereneliscom6736 Год назад

I save baby food jars. I take the labels off & their see through so you can tell what colors beads are.

@BeadFlora Год назад

A great way to reuse jars!

@shereneliscom6736 Год назад

Can you tell me where you got your spinning bead bowl? I love that !!! I would love to have one.

@BeadFlora Год назад

Hi Sherene, I ordered it off Beadalon.com. But you can also find them on amazon. Spin N Bead Jr

@marymangano1705 3 года назад

Thank you. I just wonder how do you know how many inches/feet of beads to put onto your wire. thanks just bought the kit for the cherry blossoms. waiting for it to get here.

@BeadFlora 3 года назад

When I am designing, I measure out out much it takes for each unit. So in the cherry blossoms pattern, I will tell you how much to string per unit specifically. Though if you mean by how can you tell in general, you just get a feel for it as you do more French beading. Your kit should get there this week! :) Thanks for beading along!

where do you get your beads

@BeadFlora 2 года назад

I buy them from Fire Mountain Gems

@jennalovespizza416 3 года назад

How long would these flowers last if I made them for my grandmothers grave?

@BeadFlora 3 года назад

Hi Jenna...traditionally, beaded flowers were made to be left on grave sites. I would imagine they would last many years. I suggest using transparent beads so that the colors won't fade. Though the wires will most likely rust due to the elements.
